Hi Chad; the inside handle on the Bauer NE RV Entry Door Lock # BA53UR is made of plastic. This fits cutouts that are 3-3/4" tall x 2-3/4" wide. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Hey Chad, did the plastic handle on the Bauer RV Entry Door Lock work out for your needs? I'm asking because your experience could help others who are considering similar upgrades.

@RobinH I did not purchase this product, I have a similar product with a plastic back plate that flexes when you pull on it. When I asked the question, I was worried the handle would potentially snap, a medal back plate would be a superior product and catch my attention.
