Well....I can't believe it took me this long to break this part! We've had our 2015 Spree 262 for this past season and just today when I went to put it in winter inside storage, I went to put the slide-out out and bamm!...I broke off the door knob to the bathroom and bent the upper door hinge! I realized that I had left the door open and as the slide-out moved outward, it hooked the knob- I guess we've always had the bathroom door closed all season until today. Note to self: Close the bathroom door ALWAYS! Anyway, I need to replace at least one knob and one hinge. I called KZ and they said to call the dealer but I'd like to avoid that call if possible since the response time in the past has been very slowwww. So...does anyone know of a source to replace the brown knob and upper hinge?
Thanks,
Ken

Should be able to buy a doorknob at any home improvement store. Hinges here: hingeWhile you are at it, add another hinge in the middle of the door for better support. |

Thanks for your response and it's all better now. I bought almost matching knobset (Quickset) at Home Depot. I ended up using the latch that was already in the door since the new set used a plate with screws that goes along the closed edge of the door and I was worried that if I used that new part, the door wouldn't close properly since the old latch has no plate/screws. The Home Depot guy also got me what he thought matched your suggested hinge but it turned out to be different so I was able to just remove the old hinges and flatten the bent plates, put it back together and it works great now! I'll still probably order some of the hinges you recommend to re-inforce with a third set of hinges on the bathroom and bedroom doors! Thanks again! Ken
