Escape cover

DH is just going to bed. We have a spare cover for our escape vent..brand new. DH will go up in our attic and measure for you. J&R might have one? Some years ago he didn't have one. Our HiLo dealer sold us the last one he had. Our is the original one and I am sure someday we will have to replace it. In the meantime we keep it covered from the sun. Use a trash bag. Besure of your measurements. Are you measuring inside or up on the roof? Ours is a 1990 HiLo.

Escape Hatch cover

Inside measurement 15 1/2 x22 Outside 17x24. This for our 1990 25ft. Classic. Your measurements may be different. Our HiLo dealer was looking into a supplier that would make them up. No Luck. Try J&R in Ohio. Some have made them out a metal. Perhaps had them made up at a sheet metal shop. Wonder if it could be made on a 3D printer?

3D printing I like the way you think!

3D printing

I heard this is very expensive. Saw a story about making artificial limbs. Many years from now the price may come down.

Try doing a google search for Heng's Escape Hatch. Also, look for it on Ebay. I got hits for it on both sites, including Amazon. It's actually Heng's Industries, I found it in an old RV supply catalog I got from a local RV dealer.

We had to have one made at a sheet metal place for ours.
