In one of my storage compartment on my MH I put a TV and ice box in it. I have to leave it open but the corners are so sharp and pointed. Does anybody know what I can put on the corners?

Hi TracyRandy, and welcome aboard iRV2.

I'm sure you'll get lots of suggestions on how to guard against someone getting injured on the open storeage compartment.

I've seen folks use the foam pipe insullation and also the larger swim noodles on compartments and slide out corners. Simply open the pipe insulation on the slit and slide it onto the sharp edge or slit the swim noodle and do the same.

In the workshop for tablesaws with sharp corners a tennis ball with an appropriate slit in it works out well too and may work for the bin door also.

Joe has the right idea with the swim noodles. They come in many colors.

Joe has the right idea indeed...I might add that a flourescent color that stands out seems to catch your eye.

Better to catch your eye than catch your shin!
