Like Art, went through and adjusted all closures, some were alittle out of whack to say the least. Never had one open yet, knock on wood. But we always open the dinette, sofa slide first, watching the recliner and double check all other slides clearance before opening the others. So far so good.

I cut pieces of laminate flooring that match the woodwork,
cut in shape like an 'E' that fit behind the handles,
Works very well and looks good too!

We use velcro ties we got from some vendor at the RV show in Quartzsite three years ago. They work great. You can find velcro strips at many places.

This lock can be locked in position so it can't latch. You unlock the catch, it latches when you close the door/drawer. Use the magnet key to unlatch, open the door, lock the latch in 'dont latch' position for use when parked. Also keeps toddlers out.

You know, I really like this idea. It would be easy and quick to put those in place and remove them. We use velcro but I am going to watch for some scrap laminate (for the strength) to make these.

Thanks for a great idea.

Also, I like your Mountain Meadows picture. Looks like the site we had. Is that the end site?

Roll of double sided velcro (hooks one side/loops the other) from Lowe's. Cut into short strips and looped thru door handles.
Never had a door open while towing until year and half ago. Must have hit an unusually hard bump sometime or other. Didn't remember anything particularly hard. But one overhead door opened and a box of laundry detergent dropped on the floor spilling detergent everywhere. Another door opened and a couple glass mixing bowls fell out breaking one with glass all over the floor. Real fun cleanup.

I must not be puttin' enough stuff in my cabinets cuz we have never had a door pop open. However, I do adjust the roller catches from time to time.
