Broken screen door handle

Setting up today at Black Rock Park on Lake Buchanan, I broke the handle on the screen door of our 2015 Mini Lite 2104s. Does anyone know where to order a new one and what the part number or description to find it would be? [emoji15]

Can you post a photo?
You'll get many more responses if we can see it.
Unless someone has your exact model, the rest of us are guessing at what it looks like.

Here are some Google hits...

If you mean the plastic latch/handle then just unscrew it and take it with you to any RV dealership, shouldn't cost more than a couple $.
Another option, depending on where the break is, would be to glue it back together with epoxy resin glue. I did that once and it lasted for years.

Photo attached. Not sure where the closest RV dealer is but that's what the internet is for. I didn't know whether this would be an in stock item or a special order. I knew someone here could direct me!

It is a very common part and any dealership should have it, but as I mentioned earlier epoxy resin glue should be all it takes for a permanent fix.

I wish they were only a "couple bucks" as mentioned earlier but I'm afraid
they run about $12.
Go to Ebay and search for RV screen door latch.
You'll find plenty.
Pick one that looks like yours and go for it.
I've replaced one of mine.
They're fairly fragile. Try not to use it to pull the main door shut as that
will take one out pretty quickly.

Good Luck!

Make sure to order the correct one as they come in left and right hand models. Also check the orientation of the latch to the plate on the door frame and the latch on the door that captures the handle. Ours was set too low to securely engage the plate on the door. When repositioned to latch securely it did not engage the latch to the door correctly and had to reposition the door catch to provide smooth operation. Because of poor installation initially mine cracked.
Good luck.

You are welcome.
You will only have to install the handle part, save the latch in your parts bin.

I replaced one of those a few weeks ago. Around $10 and I think it was from Camping World. There is a metal replacement that is supposed to last longer. I don't have the part #.

This is a common part to need replacing, any RV dealer would have them in stock. Since you are in the Austin area there are numerous RV dealers from Buda down to San Marcos, let your fingers do the walking then take a short road trip. Anybody should be able to replace this handle.
