More often than not, it is the door frame (part of the case housing around the door opening) that breaks, and replacing this part requires destructive disassembly of the entire unit.

Also, the door has a thin spring metal tab (used to connect the upper and lower batteries in series) which must be very rigidly attached to the door as its edges slide under the door frame to retain the door.

In other words, the very poor design (worst of all HP battery doors, IMHO) precludes a fix with a simple 3D part.
