1987 Entrance door handle

Some brute (tow operator or theft attempt) has broken the latch on my entrance door.

Any suggestions on where to get a replacement?

Thanks in advance for your replies,
Chris

Hello,

If you can post a photo of what you need (take a pic of the broken handle...) it might help folks respond. In the meantime you might check out Vintage Trailer Supply and see if they have something that fits. Not sure if it is the door handle, the latch that closes the door or what. Sometimes you can also post a part wanted in the classifieds and you might have good luck!

Hope it gets fixed quickly! Happy travels!

If it's a Keeler lock, I think it is, then Vintage Trailer Supply has a few parts available. If you post a picture of the lock n handle it will be easy to identify. VTS carry replacement handles if that's what is broken. The lock itself is NOA but they come up on EBay now and then....pricey too.

PS If they broke the top of the lock cylinder or bent it in anyway, you are S.O.L getting that puppy anytime soon. Some dirtbag bought up the last three lock cyclinders from Vintage Supply, and flogged them on Ebay for three times the Vintage price.

Have ordered my latch, I trust there is post on how to replace it.

Thanks so much for the suggestions.

Since you parted out the 345, do you happen to have front sliding window latches?! On my 270, my passenger side latch is broken and driver side latch on its way out...not sure where else to look for replacements
