hi susan
no there isn't and they never has been.
with really old trailers the issue is finding a replacement door, ANY door.
so folks who find a door from another unit make it work because it has too...
for the more modern years (the last 30-40) each door is still a 'one off' production...
this is true for all the classic mohos and all the non square air' twinks...
do folks bend and tweak and shoehorn mongrel doors? sure
but again it's about making do or being thrifty....
the riveted trim/framing is actually part of a complete door assembly, along with the hinges and actual doors....
and new one cost about 3,000 bucks, plus installation.
the guy/s making doors uses a jig and pre assembles the complete unit, which is to be riveted in place.
so no 2 are exactly the same...
ouch!
cheers
