Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Which way does your door swing?
Permalink  

No it is not a euphemism for anything and no I really don't want to know the answer.  I was just remembering how back in our bricks and sticks house there was always that one door that always swung shut or open on its own.  In the RV, our mid-cabin bathroom door swings open or closed based on how we are level.  Any given day it can be different.  Maybe I should start using it to determine if the coach is level.   Hmmm...

Our mid-bathroom door is always the last thing we check when the auto-leveler gets done and the slide is out. If it drifts a tad either way from about 45 degrees, I manually tweak the jacks as needed until it stays put.

Our shower door is the most sensitive to level, so we use it to tweak level. The only other interior swinging door is to the toilet room, since the rest are pocket doors with Velcro to keep them open.

Our bathroom door is a swinger also. If level, it stays put ... if not, it will let you know that adjustment is needed.

Seems to be a common situation our bathroom door will swing depending on level. None of the other doors will...they stay put.

We use an antique iron as a doorstop if we need to prop it open.
