entry door replacement?

I've read alot about the Trimark locks on entry doors but unfortunately it was too late and when it happened I had no cell service or internet to look up on this forum. Wondering about the ones that screwed up the door trying to open. What did you do about the damage to door and if replaced door where did you find a replacement?
Thanks

I didn’t have that problem but I had my door replaced by Dexter doors when I was in Indiana last year. It was a full painted about $600 installed. Great job

When the TriMark latch broke on my 1st motorhome, a group of friends and i took off all the screws around the door to remove it. There's a lot of them.

The second coach had the same latch break, but I had learned to keep a front window unlocked and I had a volunteer climb inside to remove the latch to get the broken striker out. Both times the deadbolt latch was still operable. Now i leave one front window unlocked unless we are inside.

Some pics of the damage will get you better responses.
