I've lost the outside handle on the screen door on my coach. The set screw worked it's way loose and it's now somewhere in Western Montana, Idaho or Eastern Washington. I need help finding a replacement.

The handle is manufactured by Sierra Pacific Engineering and Products (Sierra Pacific: Latches, Hinges, Cam Locks & More | SPEP.com) and is part #354. The problem is that, according to their website, Sierra only sells wholesale. Does anyone know of a retailer that might carry the Sierra line. I'm told that also there is a spare parts/manufacturer parts store in the Eugene, Oregon area that might have some left over Alpine parts. Anyone know about that?

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Or PTL Engineering (ala previous posts). I was fortunate to find mine on the curb recently, thinking, "Hmm, that looks just like mine...."

Jeff & Kathy,

Wow, you guys are good!! That's the handle. Please tell me how you were able to locate it so quickly and accurately. Have you found eBay Motors to be a good source for all things RV?

Thanks for your help. I really appreciate it!!

I broke mine and just happened to find one on Ebay. Bought it and works just fine. I have also seen them somewhere else since then but can't seem to remember where. They are a common handle used on many RV doors and are not exclusive to Alpine. (Camping world might even be where I have seen them)

As for buying RV stuff on Ebay, my 1st choice is to frequent local vendors and those that support IRV2. However.....if it is an expensive item I will certainly take a look on Ebay to see if something is available at a sgnificantly discounted price. Heck, we bought our Alpine on Ebay !

Good luck and glad I could help.

Jeff

This might be a possibility:eBay Store - RVGods Parts Store: Fleetwood, American Coach, Dutchmen.
They had the identical one for my F/W screen.
Safe journeys...
