I am installing a new door with a screen into an '07 Kestrel and wondering if anyone has any advice or tricks they can offer on how to get it in right.

I am concerned about getting it in square so that it opens and closes smoothly. Anybody out there with a comment or two?

 

Thanks.

The frames on the camper doors are so rigid, theres not much adjustment to be had. I've removed my door quite a few times and I've never messed with trying to shim it or had any issues with binding. They aren't exactly built with tight tolerances either.  I'm sure you're thinking of how hard it is to get a home door shimmed properly and the camper doors are a non issue in my experience.

Yes, I have had some miserable time with home doors, so I was just checking around. Thanks for your comments.
