After so many door latches have been broken in the wind we installed these in between the original hinges on our RV door.They were easy and quick to install. They are just fantastic. The door stays open and doesn’t slam unexpectedly. In extreme wind situations we still use the latch, but during normal weather we don’t have to. While it’s very windy it will also protect your door latch. So worth the money.

10 minute job!! So these hinges come with very detailed instructions, but what you really need to know is, unfold the hinges to match your open do configuration. I held the first hinge in the upper middle with masking tape, then screwed it in with one screw on each, made sure the door closed fine, the screwed all of the other screws in place, then the same for the bottom middle hinge. I only used a battery power drill with a Phillips screw driver to drive in the self tapping screws. They gave me more than enough. Make sure you set your drill at a lower torque so you don't overdrive and strip the hole. Super easy!! They work great and they will make your door hinge a lot more stronger. I did it all with a hurt shoulder so you shouldn't have any issues doing it, BUT REMEMBER TO MATCH THE HINGE TO YOUR DOOR BEFORE DRILLING/SCREWING TO MAKE SURE IT FITS. THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP!!

This was a great fix for our camper door that kept slamming shut or wouldn’t stay open for any reason now the door works perfect. Great value for the money

We have a North Point 382FLRB. It had a gas strut that would close the door. Problem was the strut was pushing the door out of alignment and the door became steadily harder to close. I started watching it, and the screws for the strut kept coming loose. Then I saw on a FB forum that several owners changed to this hinge with good results. It was easy to install and now the door closes properly.

These hinges are a great addition to an RV without them. Install was about 5 min. They are not as stiff as the ones from my last RV which came on the unit, but they work decently enough. I dont predict they will stand the force of med to high winds unfortunately like my old ones did, but they keep the door from swinging around on normal weather days.

Super easy to install. Just line it up where you want it and use the self tapping screws to secure the hinges. Had to have my wife hold in place while I got one started. Have yet to test it out but shpuld work for what I needed it for. I have kids that can't hold onto the door and the wind slams the door into the side of the camper. Hopefully this will solve my issue.

My door would flap in the wind and I do not have a latch, plus I did mot want one. I added these 2 hinges to the already existing 3 hinges and it works perfectly! Stays open and most wind dies not affect it. Very easy to install and all screws were included. Pretty decent RV add-on I must say.

I used one on each door. Two hinges on one door was too stiff, but just replacing 1 was just enough to keep the door from swinging shut and slamming and will still stay open in the wind.
