Will Lippert SolidStep on RV Cause Interference with Door Opening/Closing  

Updated 12/17/2020 | Published 12/15/2020

Question:

My RV door and screen currently touch threshold when closing barely, if I hold up it closes fine. Will step installation reduce this clearance more? Thks,

Helpful Expert Reply:

When the SolidStep part # LC791573 is installed on your RV there would be slight reduction in clearance above the threshold like you can see in the picture I attached. If it's already tight there it would become tighter. You may have to adjust your door but in general this does not cause interference.
