Fridge opens

Does anyone have an issue with their fridge opening when traveling?.

I have a Raptor w a double door Everchill and we have had it open on every trip we have been on.

Looking for an lock option, Ideas??

Punch a small hole in the center of two or three paper plates. Then push the thread of the knob used to keep doors open when not in use through hole. As you screw it in you will see the paper plates hold the doors shut perfectly without scratching or harming anything. That's what we do but thanks for bringing it up. Will be interesting to see how others have solved the problem.
Cheers

I secure my door with 1 inch cleats and velcro. The velcro is sewn on reversed so it will stick to itself when pulled through the cleats. I also use the straps and foam blocks to prop the door open when rig is in storage.

I use a idea I learned from this forum. Take a large plastic top off a peanut butter jar. Cut a hole in the center then put the threaded knob thru it as stated above. Have not had a problem since.
