My mod and holding up well for more than 5 years. My buddies door and mine did something similar. His camper was much older and the door was solid wood. Come to find out, mine is mostly styrofoam, outlined in wood. We welded the bracket to flat metal for a bigger footprint, then spray painted them. I didnt notice at first but you can see the shadow of the wood framing. I would of dont it a little narrower knowing but its holding up better than factory. Good luck.
