  • Replacement Door Latch for Trailer
  • While there are replacement door latches that may work for your 2004 Fleetwood, trailer manufacturers do not keep a list or database of parts for years, makes and models of trailer so we would not have access to information about the door on your trailer.

  • Recommended Replacement Screen Door Latch For A 2018 Forest River Flagstaff Micro Travel Trailer
  • Screen door latches are pretty much universal so you really just need to ensure that you're selecting the correct direction, but no manufacturer follows the same point of view when labeling their directions so the key is to look at the plunger.
