Hello Rzewnicki,

I totally get why you’re hesitating here, and you’re right to be careful. With a Lippert G-Class glass door, this isn’t just about making something work. It’s about avoiding damage and keeping your door looking clean and factory.

The RV Designer T-Style holder # RD49ZR is a universal clip meant to snap a door into place when it’s open. That works fine on standard aluminum RV doors, but your Lippert glass door wasn’t designed for that setup. There’s no built-in catch point or reinforced area for that kind of pressure, so you’d be forcing a solution onto a door that wasn’t meant for it.

To use that holder, you’d likely need to drill into the wall and possibly add something to the door for it to grab. That snapping action puts stress back into the door and hinge, and with a glass-panel door, that force transfers through the frame. Over time, that can lead to alignment issues or worse.

There’s also the install side. These universal clips rarely line up with anything pre-existing on Lippert doors, so you’re almost guaranteed to drill new holes. If it’s even slightly off, you end up with extra holes or hardware that doesn’t sit right, which is exactly what you’re trying to avoid.

That’s why the Replacement Controlled Motion Hinge # LC95VR is the better choice. It’s designed for doors like yours and uses friction to hold the door open wherever you leave it. No snapping, no added stress, and no extra hardware.

It also installs using the existing hinge locations, so there’s no guesswork or redrilling. You keep that clean, factory look and protect your door at the same time.

At the end of the day, the T-style holder is a workaround with some risk. The Lippert hinge is the correct solution that works with your door as intended and gives you peace of mind.

What kind of camper is the G-Class door on, and what upcoming trip are you looking most forward to?
