There is a simple and cost-effective fix for the grand kids' screen door antics!

The Camco Adjustable RV Screen Door Cross Bar # CAM42183 is an easy-to-install and inexpensive item that will both allow the kids easier exit from the RV and save your husband the extra work of having to replace the pushed-out screen in your entry door. RV-ing should be fun, not work!

The bar can be used singly or in multiples, depending on the size of the door screen and the kids' heights. If they are different heights and tend to push on the screen in different places you can install two of the bars, one placed appropriately for each child.

The bar adjusts from 21-1/4 to 28-5/8-inches to fit a variety of RV doors and it includes the mounting hardware to install it. You can see how it installs by viewing the linked video.

We also have similar products in other colors and designs, part # CAM42186 with white handles and part # CAM42188 which is 4-inches wide. This 4-inch item is shown in the other linked video.
