    Slide out trim

    Has anyone experienced the trim on the slide outs coming off ? On the main slide (refer and tv) the trim on one side keeps popping off and just noticed the bedroom slide had a piece popping off.

    I've not had mine come loose but I'm sure it happens regularly. Should be able to find stuff at the hardware store to re-affix. If the issue becomes widespread in your unit it may be possible that the wrong size fasteners were used for installation (too short?). Good luck!

    Oh yea, it's been going on since my unit was new. I usually tack them back up with a small nail gun loaded with 18 gage tacks.

    Haven't noticed it yet in our 2017 Reflection, but will keep a nail gun handy.

    Every unit I've ever owned had pieces of trim come loose from time to time. The best solution I've found was to put them back in place with paneling nails. The ridges on the paneling nails keep them from coming back out. I've used a staple gun in the past, but they usually pop back out after time.

    I had a corner cap floor piece come off when I was extending the slide-out unfortunately It took out a 5-inch gash of flooring with it...trying to find a replacement to match our flooring is more than difficult. If anyone knows where to find it let me know, please...
