David,
I agree, opening the sliding window helps.Brad Barton

Brad, I have to agree, that's one of the things I like about the 450 - screen
door and a way to prop open the outside door. If, after tightening all the
upholstery, it still isn't closing, then loosen the latch in the door, and just
snug down on the mounting bolts a bit, then close the door. IOW's let it find
the position it wants to be in, then tighten it down. I also find that some of
the difficulty in closing the door is due to the air pressure inside the coach.
If I have a window open, it easily latches, with all the windows closed, it
takes more muscle. Sorry if this sounds pedantic, don't mean it that way.--- In

it were closing better. Also, what kind of a coach doesn't have a way to prop
the door open? Mine sure doesn't unless I've missed it somewhere. I just use a
stick. Brad Barton 00LXiDFWbbartonwx@...> > > To: WanderlodgeForum@...:

upholstery on the door itself, specifically at the center of the door and near
the hinge. All those slammings has a tendency to rattle a few screws loose
causing the uphostery panels to move away from the door and jamming against the
door jam when you try to close it. I'd remove the inside brass handle, back out
the screws holding the center panel, pull on the large lower panel of the door
to release the plastic clips, swing everything out of the way. tighten up all
sheet metal screws holding the interior aluminum panels to the door, and then
re-attach the upholster (securely, maybe with velcro). David Brady'02 LXi, Pa >
