Default Travel Trailer Online Shop

We got a new travel trailer last year and didn't really get to use it (end of the season). When we went to winterize it, we noticed that the deadbolt wouldn't latch (and eventually broke). Where is the best place online to get replacement parts?

We have a 2008 Keystone Springdale and I will just replace the entire door lock as I'm assuming that is my best bet (easiest). I'm located in Pincher Creek, so no trailer shops around and the closest to me is Lethbridge if someone has a shop that they prefer.

I get a lot of stuff here:

For online parts in the States, I look here:
http://www.piercerv.com/

Anywhere in Canada for online parts you are looking at double the price as opposed to from the US.

Thanks for the advice guys. Unfortunately neither had the lock that I need...guess it's calling a dealership for me!

Do you not have a warranty? I had a few things wrong that I just waiting and did one trip to get them all fixed.

You might notice some more things that need fixing after a few trips, I would say hold out and wait if you can and get it all done at once.

Take it into Hobo Camper Country and have them do a once over on everything before you get out camping and start finding more issues. Could be a couple hours worth of labour but may be worth it.

Thanks for all of the tips guys. We did use it once last year (and it was a private sale, so no warranty). The deadbolt just broke when we were winterizing it last year, and I know that it's something easy for me to fix myself, that's all that I want to do right now. No way am I paying someone to fix something that I can, I just can't seem to find the proper part

I've gone here a few times and they're awesome. Both their parts department (they have waaaay more parts than you'd think) and service departments do great work and are cheaper than most other places I've seen.

my father in law used to work at an RV shop, he told me that some folks would drop thier rig off for warranty repair in October, and then not pick them up until april/May - saves on thsoe pesky storage fees....

also said lots of people wait until Wednesday of a long weekend to get thier rigs into to be fixed for friday.......

Best story involved a woman who bought a rig, used it for the summer and then decided she did not like camping and wanted to return it for a full refund.

Cool story bro......
