Question:
I bought the 45 degree T hook door keeper, but my door will not swing open far enough and the 90 degree style is too short. What are my alternatives?

Expert Reply:
If you have obstructions on the side of the trailer that would prevent the door from swinging all the way open then you will want to consider using either an angled door keeper like the 45-Degree T-Style Hook and Keeper Door Holder part # 37211765 or an extended one like the T-Style Hook and Keeper Door Holder for RV or Enclosed Trailer part # 37210515 for 4" or part # 37210525 for 6". In order to confirm fit you will need to measure to see how far away from the trailer the door can get before it hits. I have attached our full list of options as well if you don't feel these will work but in the end, it will be up to you to decide what will work best.
