Helpful Expert Reply:

To know what door handle will actually fit your 2001 Four Winds Hurricane motorhome you'll have to remove the door latch assembly from the door and measure the cutout hole. You won't need to completely remove the assembly, but can simply unscrew the backing plate inside the motorhome and measure the cutout with the exterior plate still in the hole.

For example, the Bauer Products Motorhome Door Lock # BA64FR you were looking at requires a cutout hole 5-1/4" wide x 4-1/2" tall to install.

Just going off of the casing dimensions of the door latch could lead to you purchasing a latch with a similar dimension and finding out that it won't fit the hole and will require you to do some cutting or filling in.
