Camco Screen door handle installation

I’ve wanted to do this mod. Thank you for posting.

We put one of these on years ago, they are really handy!

Having a screen door handle is really a good thing to have but spending $11 seems a bit much to me. I guess if you want to use it as a towel rack too, then ok. I get that. But if all you want is a handle to close the screen door easily, just go to a hardware store and buy a handle for $3 and put in 2 screws and you're done.

I did this mod a couple of years ago. Really handy, especially when your hands are full and you just need to grab something to close the door. Never used it for a towel rack though.

We do use it as a towel/dish drying mat rack as well. It beats trying to find the $3 handle with 2 screws, which is good since that is its purpose.

We installed screen door handles on our Toyota motorhome, our Wolf Pup, and I also installed them on our new TT. My wife had a stroke 16 years ago and anything that makes life easier for her is money well spent. I also like the looks of the Camco unit better than a hardware store handle. It looks like ti belongs on the door. We also find that towels dry very quickly when hyung on there.

Great idea.
I just ordered one from The Amazon.

FAIL.

Where have you seen a handle that long at a hardware store?

Seriously? You've got tens of thousands $$$$$ tied up in your rig but $11 is too much for a purpose designed screen door handle that includes all the parts necessary for an easy installation and in brushed nickel looks great, not like a ticky tacky DIY solution, and works even better? :h

The cost for this handle, which is much higher in Canada, didn't even cross my mind when I bought and installed mine. ;)
