Never would have been able to obtain a similar sized door (or drawer front) from the RV manufacturer anyway. Stained the oak frame to match the rest of the factory cabinetry and it looked pretty close.
You could do the same to make a door or to make a drawer front. I like the idea of drawers as the space becomes more useable and efficient. I used Nape & Voght stay-close RV drawer slides but any other ball bearing slide will work.
I've purchased drawer/door fronts for our current trailer from our dealer but they sure aren't cheap. I had some made up by a cabinet shop on our previous TT and they were even more expensive than from the dealer.
I like to make things look like they came from the factory. If not fussy, you could possibly find a stock door that will work at HD or other cabinet source. You should also be able to order cabinet handles from your dealer to match existing.
