Need a piece of Aluminum Skin

Trailering down the road to get my trailer inspected, and the refrigerator access door falls off.
Naturally, the guy behind me runs over it.
I salvaged the frame and straightened it out ok, but the panel is beyond repair.
Is there anyone who would sandwich a good piece of aluminum measuring 15" X 21" between 2 pieces of plywood and sell and mail it to me?
Thanks
Dick

Dick,

If no one can, call the factory. I say this because as we were there, some guy came into the main area and asked them if they would sell him some alum sheets for some repair work and they told him to talk with some of the folks in back.

Now the sheets they have I think are only the plasticoat stuff, but you'd have to ask them and I am unsure what they cost.

937-596-6111
Ask for customer support.

aluminum panels

Or.....Andy at Inland RV might be able to help you. I know that he includes a small sheet of aluminum with his water heater replacement kits.
After you get the door replaced, I suggest you install hinges on all compartment doors.
See the NON HINGED thread.

(edit) Oops, I see that you already posted to the reference thread, but I'm betting that Andy might help.
