 ??Does anyone know of an all-metal screen door latch for the r-pod??


I'm having a devil of a time finding out if a metal latch at Camping World, #70817 is all-metal. One reviewer says only the handle is metal and the rest is plastic, elsewhere I've read it said that it is indeed all metal.

I want all metal because the standard flimsy, cheap, @?>*#!@!,  latch broke.

Our original screen door latch has broken at the 'plate', when I pulled on the handle to open the door. As far as I have been able to find out, this one's 'plate' is plastic too.

Duct tape is an ungainly, but effective, repair ... and it's a lot less expensive!
