Screen door stuck

JonNLeslie

We are on a five week trip going out west to visit 7 National Parks. Today our screen door got stuck. In the close position it will only open up about 6 inches. We slide it close then try to open it many times and magically it may open. Any ideas how to corect this. Thanks

Offhand, it sounds like there may be a small rock or other debris in the bottom track.

The tracks are clear. Every 10th to 20th try the screen will open.

Sounds frustrating. I've noticed both with our 2016 T@B and our house sliding screen door that there's a spot along the frame where it opens easiest - 4" - 6" above or below and it gets "sticky". When your screen jams, is it a hard lock top and bottom? Experimented with different "push points"?

I'd give NuCamp a call tomorrow if it's still being stubborn.

In my 2019 T@B 400, the screen door sometimes jams about 6 inches from closing all the way if I slide it closed too quickly. I found out it's because the door can come out of the top track, and pulling the screen door toward the inside of the trailer pops the door back into the track and enables it to slide freely again.

Thank you everyone for the info. I will contact Justin at NuCamp for help.
