2018 Jayco 287BHSW Entry Doors

I'm looking to have aftermarket hinges or something put on my entry doors that will prevent them from flying wide open when it's windy. Does anyone have any ideas? I would like to keep it somewhat concealed if possible.

Welcome to the forum.

Personally, I haven't seen any concealed devices like that but maybe someone else on this site will have some idea for you.

The new friction hinges on the entry doors are great, as they help prevent uncontrolled doors.

We have a pneumatic arm on our main door that seems to minimize the tendency for the door to fly open or slam shut but I can't attest to its effectiveness in really high winds.
