Door Stop - Rotopax Removed

[Wandering Sagebrush]

I have two Rotopax tanks on the back of the Bobcat and I typically only have them mounted while on a trip. When they are not installed, there's a potential for the door to swing open and smack the glass against the bare Rotopax mount. To keep that from happening, I've bolted a piece of closed cell foam to the mount. Not the most elegant solution, but it works. Long term, I think I will build an opener/stopper that has a gas strut going from the door to a standoff on the back wall of the camper. Until then, it's blue foam...

Here are photos with both cans mounted, the bare mount, with the blue bumper below...

Foam home.

Better than busted glass.

Why not a peg style door holder. You may need to do stand offs, etc to get it to the right position, but may last a little longer than teh foam, and does keep the door from flopping around...

John, I'm not a fan of that style. A strong gust of wind will pull the door off the peg.

My hard side camper uses a gas strut with a standoff that is about the length of the peg in your photo. I'll probably do something like that.

Something like this...
