Exterior Door handle/lock replacement

Greetings,
I have a 1986 25' Sovereign that I purchased in November and am fixing up. The exterior door handle/lock came broken and I need to find the proper replacement kit. Can anyone help me find a parts supplier who actually has this available please? I've checked several sites that have been referred by Airstream but the vendors don't actually have the parts available to order - and I need to get this fixed by early March when we're due to hit the road.
Thank you!
Laurie

I believe Inland RV has a replacement. Check their website.

Can you post a picture so we are sure we are talking about the same thing and maybe see what is broken.

Thank you both for your notes. I searched yesterday for quite a while and found an original replacement Keeler set on eBay, so trust that will work well for quite a while.
Happy travels to all ~

New door lock

I found a new one on EBay without keys(shouldn't be a problem)
Good luck

You may find that a lot of the 1980's models had keys the same. We have 2 88 AS and the door keys are the same..

1986 345 Classic door handle replacement needed

What's latest recommendation? Full replacement needed for Keeler Brass exterior and interior assembly. No originals available that I can see. Who has done a retro fit and what product did you use (brand and part #)? Seriously....I need the whole thing replaced; repair not an option. I will have interior plate and handle available if anyone needs them. (3 screws with lever lock version; plate size approx. 6"x4".)

In the market for an interior plate. Would you care to post pics of yours?
