Isata 3 coach door holder

I know there was a posting regarding a coach door blowing open and hitting the side camera and causing damage. I can't find it now. Is there a door stop/catch that can be added to avoid this? When the outer door is open and the screen door is closed, the outer door is vulnerable to being blown shut or, worse, wide open.

I assume placement has to be where there is more than just the 'skin' or do you use something that expands beneath the skin to make it secure?

We always just made sure to put two screws into the door frame itself. On the wall side, you're going through fiberglass with backer. only 1/4", so best to use a drywall time anchor, or screws and sealant. Other option is just a stick on door bumper.

Or use something like this on the door side.

The bumper isn't beautiful but it looks better than a hole in your door believe me, sadly I know

Hmmmm! Well if anything, be conscious of the additional weight.
