Main Door Care

Lubrication

Apply a little paraffin or grease to the striker pockets
and a slight amount of household oil to the lock
mechanisms to keep the locks operating smoothly�
Also, lubricate the hinge pins periodically with
household oil� Use the lubricant sparingly and remove
any excess from exterior skin immediately.

Adjustment

Main door adjustment can be affected by:
• The trailer being improperly leveled (causing twisting
of trailer body/shell).*
• Striker bolt alignment being out of adjustment, (striker
bolt is adjustable)�
• Screen door being out of adjustment, resulting in a
situation of the door rubbing the frame, or not closing
flush (which will create pressure on the door).
• Main door has come open at some point introducing
a change to the contour of the door frame (check for
sheared rivets on interior skin of door).
* When using the stabilizers (for eliminating movement-
not leveling) on your Airstream be sure to check
the fit of your main door before and after extending
stabilizers. The fit of the main door can be affected if
trailer is not level side to side and front to back.
