Also who has rebuilt the doors them self?

It's extremely likely that all Camplite doors in the pre-Thor era are the same. If yours measures 24X72.5 on the outside, then the sticker on mine will work for finding a replacement for yours.

By the way, the sticker is very well hidden. It's on the right inside of the door that closes against the door frame.

For the small rear hatch door, do you mean the storage compartment flip up door?

Yes flip up door

Thanks for location info. I looked before and did not see it, will have to take a better look.

Here's the thread on the compartment door, with ordering info. Again, it's extremely likely they are all the same size and construction.

The door on my 2014 Camplite 14DBS went up.  At that time, the doors were not entirely aluminum (probably some wood) and I got a rust spot that began to eat through my door around 6 years afterward.  I called Challenger to ask about the cost of getting a new door.  The shipping was expensive!  I arranged to have them make the door (it wasn't in stock) and then I went up there to pick it up.  It saved me around $200.  I had to do a lot of planning to make sure that I arrived at the right time.   When I arrived there, they helped me put it in the back of my pickup, and then gave me a tour of their factory (after I had asked).  I was able to go from there to Sleeping Bear Dunes, which was a great trip.  I drove from Maryland.  Admittedly, it was a challenge vacationing with the door in the bed of my pickup, but it saved me some money.  Not sure if you can do the same though.

(//)Ah... there's the rub!  They stopped making doors that matched the color of my trailer (champagne beige, if I remember correctly).  I asked them to send me a few color samples... and they were very gracious in doing so.  However, the colors did not really match.  So I chose a darker color that matched the decals on the side of the trailer.

Yep, the whole world is upside down :)

Sorry about that.  I think I fixed it now.  I had to rotate and then save the picture.  Easier then turning the monitor up-side-down....

Scout,

I still would like to see your door sticker if you could.
Info can't be found by Challenger with my older door sticker, no measurements like a newer one.
Yes, Merlins  24X72.5  probably the same size as mine. I need to be as sure as I can before the $ goes out.

From Challenger

For a white door that has a screen door with a window it is $769.50 plus approx. $300.00 for the freight.  There would also be sales tax.  If you wish to proceed I can do a formal quote.

Does this sound inline ??

Yes, for a complete new door with those options, I would expect close to $1K.

The door w/o a window is $711.65 and the freight $285.00.

Window is not needed and most likely the cause of the issues to start with. The window
is useless in my mind.; Thoughts?

New door construction.
Azdel and foam.  There is also an aluminum tube around the perimeter of the door.
