To find out for sure, open a window next to the door, then go outside and see if it closes with less "need to slam".... If so, that's a good thing, you aren't losing inside air which should make your trailer cooler in summer and warmer in winter (without the air leaks)......

We've moved the striker plate and it opens a little easier. We will check again in the middle of the day when it's hot.



The kitchen window (right beside the door) is usually open. The door shuts better now with the striker plate moved. Same as above, we will check in the pm and see how it is with the heat.


Thanks!
