In order to select the correct hatch cover for your 2009 Forest River camper you need to know your hatch cut out size, or you can use a universal option, and I'll go over the selection of options we have and you can use this to determine which access door you can use once you take the appropriate measurements.

The Valterra Electrical Cable Hatch for RVs - 8-1/2" Long x 8" Tall - White # A10-2151VP or Black # A10-2151BKVP will fit your camper if it has a 6-13/16" long x 6-3/8" tall hatch cutout.

The Valterra Locking Electrical Cable Hatch for RVs - 7-5/8" Long x 6-1/2" Tall - White # A10-2150VP or Black # A10-2150BKVP will fit your camper if it has a 5-7/8" long x 4-3/4" tall hatch cutout.

The other option is a universal fit, the Ultra-Fab Universal Access Door for Trailers and RVs - 5" x 5" Opening - Chrome # UF48-979010 or White # UF48-979009 which you can attach and will give you a 5" x 5" door opening. The frame overall is 8" wide x 7" tall.
