I have a 2020 40IP Bus. Is anyone else having problems with the shower door not closing properly? Mine isn't hung correctly causing it to be very difficult to open and close. I need to lift up on it very aggressively to do either. Thanks for any input!!

Check your frame mounting to the wall on the bedroom side of the shower. Had the same issue and on mine and the top screw anchoring the frame into the fiberglass shower unit came loose. Also check your door operation before putting the levelers down. Sometimes the coach may tilt one way or another and cause the difficulty in opening and closing the door.

Not sure this is your cause but I had a problem with a difficult opening and closing with mine and realized it was the plastic "door sweep" seal, at the bottom of the door, that had hardened over time and started to tear. It made the door harder to open. Went to Home Depot and found a replacement that fit for under $5. Fixed my problem. Something to take a look at?

I just replaced the sweep off our shower door with this from Amazon;

Didn't realize how poorly the door operated till I installed the new sweep. Works perfectly now.

This one fit my shower door.

Might take your old one off and check their stock.

I bought a couple as spares. Fairly cheap.

I had a similar issue in the Phaeton. The top hinge wasn't substantial enough to keep that heavy shatter-proof glass door from dropping. Had it shored up once by the dealer, but it didn't last. Don't know what the next owner figured out as I sold it before I had to fix it again.

thanks for this thread and thanks for the link to Home Deport.

went there today and bought two replacements strips ($3.33 each).

FYI ... i was looking for a strip that was the stated length. i got help from someone to find the item. IT IS SOLD IN A ROLL (see pic).

cheers,
peter
