24R Toilet door knob locked with no lock.

Hi All, Had an interesting issue develop with our 2014 24R. The toilet door worked fine and then yesterday we could not open it. Just the 2 of us so no issues with a kid trapped in the bathroom but beware that on our unit there was no way to get it unlatched. The 2 screws that hold the door handle together were mounted on the inside of the door. With the door close and the door handle not working it was a challenge to get in. Finally used 2 flat blade screwdrivers to gently pry the door open enough to release. No damage done. But I can't find a source for a replacement door knob. There is no lock on the know now and we do not want or need a lock but would like it to match the dark bronze. I was told we need a mobile home door knob but do not know the difference. Any advice?

I found the same dark bronze towel bars, etc., as used by FR, at

They call it "Old World Bronze." This might be the lock you're looking for:

Thank you. Looks to be a perfect match. I got mine working again after full disassembly clean,oil and rebuild. Seems to be OK but I moved the screws to the outside in case it happens again we can disassemble and remove the knob from the outside easily. I would suggest checking your RV to see where the screws holding on the bathroom door are located and reverse if they are on the inside.
