Crack between door and camper

[JasonRW1910ESP]

Am I doing something wrong? There’s a crack between the door and camper letting gnats inside camper. Anything I can try to get the door to line up properly?

Warped door, or too much pressure on one or more of your stabilizer jacks ?? Try taking pressure off jacks one at a time and see if the door gap changes.

[JasonRW1910ESP]

If it’s one of those it has to be warped door bc there’s really no pressure on the stabilizer jacks.

Hi there, When lowering the stabilizer jacks once they touch ground, go ONE more turn. It is easy to rack the trailer and put the door out of alignment.

use a straight edge to check the door and the sidewall of the trailer that will tell you which is out of whack.

One more thing, do not operate the tongue jack or BAL Leveler (if you’re using one for side to side leveling) if the stabilizers are already down—you can tweak the frame or damage a stabilizer if you do. Respectfully, OttieJB

This site is very level, no levelers, boards to drive on or anything.

Did you verify that with a level placed on the trailer to check side to side and front to back? It doesn’t take much to create a condition where something doesn’t quite line up with these pop ups. Respectfully, OttieJB.

[JasonRW1910ESP]

Yes sir I did. A level is my main tool.

Could you post a good picture of the whole door as it sits from the outside and another picture of the whole door from the inside (might be tough to do) with more light on the subject?

Not familiar with P/U RVs, but since it looks to be new... I would want it checked ASAP. This can rot the doorway floor out pronto.

Jason, when set up are you fastening the lower door to the body with latches? It appears the door is tight at bottom and opens up away from body as you look from floor up. Is the door vertical or leaning away from trailer at top?

[JasonRW1910ESP]

Yes it it latched at the bottom with 4 latches. As far as the gap, it’s fine until you open the door then it shifts

[OttieJB]

Strike that about the travel door I believe I was mistaken.

[JasonRW1910ESP]

I haven’t noticed any gaps when in travel mode

[JasonRW1910ESP]

The travel door is taken off and stored under the bunk when camper is set up

[OttieJB]

Shot in the dark—Did you try taking all the pressure off all the stabilizers at once temporarily to see if it causes a change? I’m reaching now because if it’s not a pressure/leveling or warped door problem it may require a trip to the dealer to diagnose and fix (hopefully not).

[JasonRW1910ESP]

Yes I’ve taken the weight off the stabilizer jacks. We’re camping 20 minutes from the dealer so I may go up there. I could put some weather stripping to fill the gap but I’d like for it to be right weather it’s something I’m doing or if it’s the camper itself. This is our first trip with the camper so I want to nip it in the butt now rather than waiting.
