Easy Open Screen Door Latch for the Born Free Motorcoach

Post by bfadmin »

I’m just passing along this information and some pictures I took of my installation, the credit goes to Bruno Panek from Chicago (Born Free owner) who found this installation on the internet: http://rvtravel.com/blog/rvnow/2007/02/ ... latch.html and showed his installation to me at Catalina State Park in Arizona in February 2009.

I thought it was such a good idea I thought I would write it up and post it on the Leap'n Lions forum. The total cost is about $1.00 for the stainless steel bicycle spoke. The spoke I used is about 10 inches long. Some of the pics are mine the others from the article.

Please click on the blue Bike spoke screen door opener.pdf button to the left side of the Attachments window below just to the right of the paper clip symbol to view and/or printout a 5 page detailed procedure including 8 photos.
