Door Latch

Post by AustHaflinger »

When you close your doors, do you pull them all the way in so the sliding latch is completely on the inside like this pic.

Or do you only close so the sliding latch is in this position.

I use the top position as it pulls the door in nice and close where the middle position makes the cabin a lot more drafty than it already is.

So what position is supposed to be used?

Thanks Julian - would make sense but does get a bit blowy in the cabin on that position - when you just pull the door it naturally goes to that position.

I need to get a new canvas made so I will get the trimmer to make the canopy and doors so it does seal in that position.

Cheers
