The gap under the top trim piece (between the closet and linen doors) hasn't bugged me much, but if yours ends up a huge improvement, I may have to say something to our dealer...

I can do that. Did you see my pictures how it is now? Does yours look like that? Ours won't be fixed for awhile but I will post pictures when it is. If you look on their website and go to our model, the pictures show how it's supposed to be.

And I believe that's how ours is supposed to be based on pictures. Looks like there'd be about a foot or so at the bottom where light would come through along the wall under the slide, right?

Ours looks like yours. The top piece of trim is the only place the door sits against, the rest of the slide out the door is about 1.5" away from the wood stile between the closet/linen doors. Went and looked closer at the picture on Keystone's website. I see the extra wood stile between the closet/linen doors to flush out the gap so the door sits tight, that makes a lot more sense. The part I find interesting is that I walked through 3 28RDB's when picking ours and they were all alike with the gap. Must have been a change that saved a little wood/ money/ time for construction.

I can't wait to see the picture of the fix from Keystone. Interested to see what they will do. Thank you!

You are correct. I will see if I can get out to the camper this weekend to take some pictures as it is parked at my brothers house (about 5 miles out in the country).

Interesting,
We noticed this issue on our 2014 29rli fifth. We live in Canada and will check out your pics when you get new moulding. Will also check with dealer as we picked up trailer last week.
