Tagged With "Pocket"

First big trip to Florida this spring, from MI, and we had a few issues that caught us by surprise. We pulled our 2021 2465 with our 2018 F-150 3.5 (which we had no problem with). First stop, 350 miles to Louisville, we’re setting up, and upon opening the dinette slide we discovered the trim around the fireplace just popped off (while going down the road) and then got caught in the slide as it extended. At the same time we discovered that the bedroom pocket door popped off its track. I was...

I did not go through them, but a search on "pocket door" came up with several hits.

Had problems with our bedroom pocket door coming off the track. I replaced the hangers with heavier and better hardware and reinstalled the door myself. The door did get a little gouged and we showed it to Lance Service techs while in for other warranty work in a April. They have ordered us a new door.

I’m thinking that the snap straps are not sufficient to hold the doors in place while traveling. They do well in preventing movement at camp if the rig is not perfectly level. We “lock” the pocket door in the closed position during transit.

LS did update our snap straps - they are a little bigger and tighter fitting.

This is the update I did this weekend to the straps on our new to us 2020-2375. The turn button fasteners are often used in marine applications and are available on Amazon. Our previous trailer was a Rockwood and they were used on the pocket doors. Always secure. I had to use a wider strap to orientate the turn buttons to mount vertical.
