so i bot a birch screen door from someone who was in dothan. it arrived a few months ago and i hadn't had a chance to look at it. i pulled it all open today and all that was in the box was the door, the three door slats, and the two hinges. i think i'm missing the trim, which i know there was a good discussion about lately, and the latch for the motorhome side of the door mechanism. anyone know what i could use as a replacement? the door is in a bit of bad shape, so i've been grinding the rust off the hinges and i'm going to rust coat and paint them. same with the door. it looks like the hinges were riveted to the door and someone popped them off, leaving little mounds where the rivets were. what is the best way to reattach them?
Thanks,

There was some discussion about finding the plastic trim at Home Depot, Lowes, etc. Well, I've searched, and if you can find that "correct" plastic trim anywhere, it would surprise me.
I placed an order with Bob Burkitt, he purchased the door inventory and rights to reproduce it from Alex Birch.
