I have a question for all you modders! Has anyone come up with an easy way to open the roof vent for those of us that are vertically challenged? I have a step stool, but even with that, I struggle to reach the crank. Other than a taller step stool, of course!

My mods project for DH (before our big trip this season) will be to make the Lexan "storm" door!! Wish us luck -- he is really nervous about ruining a piece of Lexan. And, he is going back and forth about how to attach it -- clips, Velcro, or screwing it directly into the door frame.
What other mods are you doing this year? I may find more projects for him!!!
Thanks for any words of encouragement,
Vickie

NOT FUNNY.
We all LOVE this thread.
The MODS have already done everything they can to prevent it including refusing a sticky.
If you get it killed, you will NOT be a popular person here.

The only problem that I had when cutting the Lexan/plexiglass was when I cut the radius on the corners. I used a handheld jigsaw, made some relief cuts and things worked out okay. Just go slow and the DH shouldn't have a problem. I attached mine with velcro to allow for ease of removal although I find that we seldom remove it. Others have used "mirror clips" which sounds like a good idea also. It was one of the best mods that I did.

Has anyone put a bar across the screen door to make it easier to pull shut when it gets away from you? Seems like a good idea to save the screen from being pushed or pulled on.

We put a knob on one side of the screen door and a handle on the other side of the screan door as per the pictures in someones earlier thread and we love it!
It would especially be good for people with big hands and fingers as they would be hard to get into the little grove. We also put on a screen door closer spring. Love it too. I highly recommend these three little mods. They are cheap to do and highly functional.
