JR Products RV Screen-Door Latches: Amerimax vs Philips
RV screen-door latches can look very similar from the handle side, yet JR Products makes separate replacements for Amerimax and Philips-style doors. The critical differences are the mounting-hole centres and the original right- or left-hand operation. The bi-directional Amerimax-style latch is a separate option for the 3-inch mounting pattern.
Two mounting patterns and three handing choices
Amerimax-style: 3 inches on centre
JR Products 10765 is the right-hand latch and 10775 is left-hand. Manufacturer number 06-11865 (listed as 0611865 in this catalog) is the bi-directional replacement for compatible 3-inch mounting patterns.
Philips-style: 2.3 inches on centre
JR Products 11205 is the right-hand model, while 11215 is the left-hand model. Their mounting holes are closer together than the Amerimax versions; verify the door's existing holes before choosing.
Screen-door latch part numbers
| JR MPN | Door style | Handing | Mounting holes | Identification |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10765 | Amerimax | Right-hand | 3 in on center | Original right-hand latch |
| 10775 | Amerimax | Left-hand | 3 in on center | Original left-hand latch |
| 11205 | Philips | Right-hand | 2.3 in on center | For matching Philips-style door |
| 11215 | Philips | Left-hand | 2.3 in on center | For matching Philips-style door |
| 0611865 | Amerimax | Bi-directional | 3 in on center | Manufacturer number 06-11865; includes latch, strike, keeper and screws |
Key fit distinction: A 3-inch Amerimax latch will not mount into a 2.3-inch Philips pattern without altering the door. Do not assume the bi-directional latch fits every RV screen door.
Measure before ordering a replacement latch
- Measure the distance between mounting-hole centres. Amerimax models have a 3-inch layout; the Philips versions are 2.3 inches on centre.
- Identify the old latch's operating direction as seen from inside the RV, and compare its original latch or striker profile to the catalog photo.
- Check that the screen door correctly aligns with the entry door and that both contact points are secure. A loose or bent door frame can prevent the latch from catching.
- Only consider the bi-directional 0611865 when the original mounting layout and strike arrangement are compatible with the manufacturer's 06-11865 design.
- Inspect the mounting holes and fasteners before refitting. Check the exact listing for supplied screws, striker and keeper. UsedRVParts viewing and pickup in Kelowna are by appointment.
