Improvements to 2020 3790RD cabinets.

Some of you saw the control panel door I put on a set of drawer slides a couple of years ago, so I decided to do it again with the control panel and bathroom cabinet doors. The main reason for the bathroom one was that my wife wants a towel rack over the toilet and the door would hit the rack and wouldn't open all the way. The reason for the control panel was to keep from walking into it IF it was left open. I used a set of 12" full extension drawer slides on the bathroom door and a piece of 3/8" wood stock to move the new motion light down so it would pick up movement.
As for the control panel door, I used a set of 10" full extension drawer slides on it. Now, we can access both doors and have the desired access we like.

Thanks for the ideas

Love the slide idea. I have cracked my head way to many time on the control panel door. That is a fix/improvement I'll have to do. Thanks

This mod I've done on all five of our campers. The clear lens makes it very hot here in the south for the summer time, so I clean the outer lens with Dawn and then rubbing alcohol and paint the skylight with 3 VERY light coats of Krylon gloss white spray paint in crisscrossing patterns. Now, lots of light still comes in, but no heat.

Neat ideas that are done well. I have about ripped off that damn door of my control panel, of course it was with my head when I left it open.

Agree on the hot shower because of the skylight. I removed the indoor portion of the skylight and had it window tinted at an automotive tinting shop. Much better.
