Screen Door Gap

Noticed, at the top, left hand side of my screen door (Latch Side), about a 1/4" gap when the door is closed. Level or not, its always there. Now I'm guessing there is some kind of adjustment I can do to fix this, anyone know what it is? Otherwise I have to take it in, and I hate doing that LOL

I had the same problem only mine was bowed out. I put my knee in the middle a hand on the top and bottom and bowed it back in. I went a little to far on purpose so it would seal better.
Put one hand on the top one on the bottom and spring it until it is straight. 5 minutes and it's fixed. Easier than taking it back to the to the dealer.

Hmmm I never thought to check if it was bowed in. I'll have to look at that.

I did not mention that my screen door was also like yours. General RV tried to adjust it and failed but told me it was fixed. I was so mad at them for not fixing the AC that I did not even check their work. The second dealer had to replace the screen which was installed to tightly bending the screen door. Hinges also needed adjusted. I would have fixed it myself but it had to go to the dealer anyway.

I looked at mine just now, the door doesn't seem to be bowed, ill have to look at the hinges to see if I can adjust them.
why the hell I buy the extended service plan, its still under the year warrantee and I still fix it all myself, lol
