Re: Basement Door Latch Replacement (parts)
Not sure exactly what you guys have, BUT! I have had some problems with the one on my coach UNTIL I replaced the pot metal part with a steel part that I made using strap metal about 1/8" thick. Got the old part, laid it on top of the medal and traced it with a pencil or marker, then I just ground it into shape. Have not had any problems since.
But the reason why they break is because lots of RVers slam the side compartment doors and the pot medal just will break. You got to close the door slow and then just tap it a little and you will not have problems.
