Screen Door - Outside Door Question

[GiddiYup]

silly question but ....when you open your camper door does your screen door stay attached to the main door or do you have to manually open the screen door afterwards?

My screen door on my 29.5 BHDS did at one point stay attached to the main door but it always seemed to be catching/jamming on bottom of kick plate walking in and i was afraid of breaking something.

They no longer stay together since i made an adjustment and I am wondering if this is how they should be or if they can open together.

Cheers!

All of my units the screen stayed attached and opened with the main door. Have to unlatch it from door to have just screen closed.

They should open together. There should be a latch on the main hard door that pushes the screen door handle up so it doesn't catch on the frame. It could be that the latch on yours is broken or not up high enough to push the screen door handle up enough. As for the door catching on the bottom - mine did that at first. I just pushed up on the screen door to get it off so it doesn't catch anymore. Basically just bent the top up a little with minimal force.

Update on this thread. I had the same issue, the doors used to open together. What I found was that the latch on the screen door had actually loosened. Once I repositioned it and tightened it, the doors open and closed together once again.
