Load native DLLs for third-party framework

Question

I have Asp.Net App which needs a third-party framework (consisting of few managed and loads of native dlls) for a specific functionality.

I want to place all native dlls in another folder outside the bin folder of my web app. Is there a way to tell the third-party managed dlls to load this native dlls from a specific directory? The managed framework itself provides no such function.

What are my options?

I think this question may already have been answered:

Or perhaps for a couple of other options:

load a DLL reference from a different folder?
