industrial  lock and hardware has great replacement locks - much heavier duty and secure - check out their website at ch751.com - I am very happy with my locks from them. Regards,   :D  Kathy G

Oops  - forgot to say go through Lou's excellent checklist first!! :o

It sounds like you are getting gas because it does light and then it goes out.  Typical symtom of a bad igniter board - if you are under warranty - get them to test and fix. otherwise you can bring it into an RV shop for repairs or use refrig model and serial number to get an aftermarket ( like...

Look up  'seal tite' corner seal tape,  Mark Polk has a video on it. I used it on a front rebuild on my travel trailer and I thought it was a really good product. Regards, Kathy G :D

I used the peel and stick veneer from Rockler in last house kitchen on wood frame/MDF door cabinets. New doors and veneer were very reasonable.  They come unfinished - so its a bit more work.  Great results.  Good book with lots of tips is Refacing Kitchen Cabinets by Kimball. Good Luck!! ;)

I suggest you look for a boatbuilders plywood for your re-side.  I rebuilt the water damaged front of my trailer with Hydrotek Meranti and sealed it up with marine epoxy.  It would have looked great with just that finish - but I covered it with aluminum after that.  The Hydrotek was about $50...

Very nice! Look forward to seeing your progress in videos.  Thanks for posting! Really like the thought you put into details. Regards, Kathy G

On our old aluminum sided trailer - I found it cleaned up great with spaying on simple green and using a few different brushes to scrub lightly before rinsing.

Hi Laura, If the trailer is where you are living - the moisture inside is coming from you.  Cooking, washing, breathing, living puts a large quantity of water into the air and it is trappedin a sealed up trailer.  You need to crack vents and windows as much as possible and run a good fan (not...

Hi T! I will be pulling the front of my TT off this summer to repair delamination and water damage on front cap.  I am planning to rebuillt framing as necessary, and then reskin with luan and aluminum.  Could you tell me where you are sourced your aluminum skin and how your project turned out...
