Anyone know of a place to get new camper "front" doors with windows that will fit a shasta loflyte?

Might try wwww.vintagetrailersupply.com. I am not familiar with your loflyte and don't know if there is usually a window in that model's door, but if not, and you just want a window in it, maybe if you have a company in your town that manufactures aluminum framed windows, they can fabricate the proper sized window and install it in the door you have, if it is in good shape, for less than the cost of a "new" door that will fit your loflyte. Won't cost anything except time and gas to get an estimate from the window place first, if you take them a digital photo of your door and give them the dimensions, height, width and thickness. Just suggestions.

Good idea ... I didn't see actual doors at vintage trailer supply but I know I've seen doors with windows in similar trailers to mine.  My door is pretty dented up and it isn't straight so would love to find a new one. The screen door will do though if I can't. |

You might try calling The Metal Company in Denver. The can custom make a door for you if you can't find one somewhere else. Their work is great - not sure how they line up on price though so keep that in mind. Only thing I have found with their work is it is VERY nice but is "new looking" so it may not completely match the look of the camper. Just a thought.... www.themetalcompany.com/ |

Great thread! You guys leave a very helpful breadcrumb trail. I was kind of bummed about all the dings on the inside of my LoFlyte door, plus I wish it had a window. Since the rest of the interior has paneling on the walls and ceiling, I'm going to find a similarly textured thin piece of paneling and cover the dinged up interior door. -I'm painting it all anyway. Then I'll take the door to a local window place as described above and have them put in a nice sliding window, then we'll install a proper door handle and lock. I think that should neaten things up nicely. -Alana |

Love the idea of paneling on the inside of the door! My 68 loflyte door is dinged up too!
