When I close the door I must give it a hard push (slam) to get it closed. Any suggestions as to adjust the door or latch so that it closes without the slam would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Tom

Tom, our's used to be like that. Not any more. Call Jim K. and get one of the door pins that he sells. I can shut our door with one finger now and Teri is happy.

Yes and when you visit Dan and Teri, DO NOT SLAM his door or you will hear about it. He told me at least 3 times not to slam his door but it is an old habit and hard to break.

I do not know the cost but it is an exchange item. They take your old one in exchange and modify/repair it.

I looked on his site and do not see it. I have seen them on his table at several rallies. Just call Jim and ask. 1-800-752-7502
