    solid video. most people wouldn't want to hand cut it. I'm glad to see you took the time to do it right so nothing got broken. Take care!

      Oh man… that type of material can be tricky! John happens to be so patient and go slow. The results speak for themselves too.
      Thanks for watching!

    Have you ever had a Propane Door open while driving? We have... so we have added the QWork Compression Latch on our Propane Doors. And they look great! Let us know what you think. (Thanks Frank! 😂) John and Caroline ☘

    Great video! Live the upgrade to the locks. I like the new locks compared to the other ones. Never liked those at all. How are they holding up? Great job John! Looks good to me. Thank you for doing this video! Have a great weekend and safe travels.

    • @TheGrandShamrockTour
      @TheGrandShamrockTour  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Good morning Sherri! I agree.. the black latches look so much better. Now, hopefully they never open driving down the road. 😂 Our old ones came open while we were heading down I-40 when a friend was following us and they had us pull over... I now check them EVERY time we travel. We will let you know if we have issues with these new ones. We travel tomorrow. 👍😎
      Enjoy your weekend.

    Looks like a nice solution, do any of them have locks, or did you lose that function on the other doors. I realize LP access is not locked, but others are.

    • @TheGrandShamrockTour
      @TheGrandShamrockTour  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hello! Good question about the locking latches. John did not want another key for opening doors so we went with non-locking. The front bay already had a lock so we only replaced the two side latches. Being on the road for three years and we have been fortunate to not have any theft or access to our propane tanks. I hope this helps.
      Here is the possible locking set from Amazon but know we did not try these out:

    I bought one of these to see how it felt and could see light shining through the sides. Do you have any concerns about moisture/water getting through?

    • @TheGrandShamrockTour
      @TheGrandShamrockTour  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hello! We used silicone on the gasket service. We did not have any water come through. Tight seals on all latches.
      We hope this helps.

      Hello Steve. We installed the NON- locking latch. There is an available LOCKING latch on Amazon for a set 4 = just over $36.00. Our front bay has a lock so we didn't need it there. The propane doors did not have locks originally.
