Sliding Screen Door Handle

This is a screen door handle which is a replacement/enhancement to the Slide-Co Prime-Line Products 121740 Mortise Style Screen Door Latch and Pull kit available for purchase. After the second time the latch broke, I decided to create my own and improve it. The original handle has a pretty small surface to grab onto when sliding the door open or closed. This design doubles the surface area making it much easier to use (wife and kid approved!) and adds a pocket section so that there should be absolutely no need to touch the actual screen. We had to replace our screen material b/c a hole was ripping near the handle due to the finger contact when closing the screen door.

There are three STL files, one for the inside door handle, one for the outside door handle and one for the latch mechanism. You will want to reuse the metal latch and screws from the original screen door handle kit. The latch model should snap into the inside door handle with a little bit of force.
