Door slams shut with wind.

My entrance door slams shut when the wind blows from the front of the 5er. There is nothing to prevent this. What is everyone out there doing to stop this? Is there some sort of kit that can be installed to prevent this? 2018 28.5 RSTS. Thanks for the help.

There's nothing on my Pinnacle to prevent it.

If his door has the new "Friction Hinge" they may not have installed it.

My son has that friction hinge on his Vanleigh and I can't stand it.

Our door on our 2018 28.5 HT has a friction hinge and has never been blown shut. How much wind was it?
