More outside access?

[robert421960]

I have the jflight 31bhds.
I only have the large area across the front so
wouldnt it be great to have more outside access?
I think it would be great to have access into the dinette storage from the outside.
how hard would it be to get doors and make it work?

If at a seasonal site and trailer can be in a fixed postion for many years, one can install a high level deck and its awning would be the deck's roof. If wondering, that's how we added "more space" at my seasonal camp site. re:

Is this something you had in mind?

although that is really kool
no what im talking about is small access doors like on your storage to access the storage under the dinette from the outside
i know i dont explain things well on here but i know in my head what im talking about lol

Sounds like something like removing the Windows on your slide and perhaps installing a "light weight" RV Sliding door. Same sliding door they install on "mobile park" RV trailers. Or, perhaps installing 2 x large swing out doors - that some have on their Toy Hauler sides. Or, a combo upgrade of each????

If you take a few pictures of your TT's outer slide and take the pictures to a few of your local welding shops, I wonder if they can give you some ideas. For example, remoing your slide's factory windows and replace with something different. Might be worth asking them for a few good ideas....

sorry man you are not following me
you know the storage area under your dinette?
i want to be able to get to it from the outside.then i wouldnt have to go inside to get my grill and other stuff
it just seems smart to add extra storage doors on the outside

I have the same Jayco as you do Robert and have wondered the same thing. I have not tried the mod yet because I do not think it is possible to put in a big enough door without removing some of the vertical studs that support the dinette seats. It just does not seem worth the effort to me.

If you decide to put a door in, please post what you did. I would be very interested.

if i do it im sure it will next spring
i really dont think it would be that great of a job but who knows until you get into it
