I have been using GoldBlatt brand tool as Handle for Opening //closing slider door -
tool is for hand sanding - holds sandpaper - find at drywall / tool department box store -
Have been using daily for 6 years - can be Screwed or Epoxied in place -
handle is large diameter and makes easy to hold and comfortable use -
plastic handle stays cool in sunshine -

steel mounting plate on handle is thick and strong -
I put 4 sheet metal screws and maybe epoxy on handle inside door -
handle on outside of door uses only epoxy to hold in place -

metal plate is 3 inches wide allows mounting screws to be spread out
on door sheet metal for better strength

will also work as grab handle to help You in getting IN /Out of van etc
could also work as handle for a box or something -
cost around $8 -

Handle is red but Maybe can be painted - not sure

Most likely better built than any RV door handle.

I've thought about having a grab handle on the outside for an assist when the door ends up higher off the ground after leveling. Thanks for sharing.
