    Camco screen door cross bar handle for Reflection 303RLS

    Hi all, has anyone installed a Camco screen door cross bar handle on a 2021 GD Reflection 303RLS? The inside screen door frame appears to be narrow for the ends of the cross bar handle. I had one on my Wildwood trailer where the screen door frame was a bit wider.

    I think you would just cut the bar down to fit the width of the door.

    Thank you, it’s not the bar that I’m referring to, I’m referring to the area of screen door where the bar screws into, it’s narrow.

    I put one on my 2021 28bh and did not have a problem. Predrilled the holes and screwed it on. Didn’t have a problem last year when we used it. Just take your time and try to get the hole in the middle of the aluminum frame.

    Our door looks a lot like the picture in @Silverbeard post above. No problem with the Camco bar.

    Heads up about an issue you MIGHT have though, voice of rueful experience here.

    We put one bar on at about belly height and liked it so much that we decided to install a second one lower down for further stiffening of the door, for handling the door when we're on the ground outside the trailer, and for a little extra support when climbing the stairs.

    I installed the second bar and it was a work of art, in perfect symmetry with the upper bar. Days later we were breaking camp, folded in our steps and tried to close the door. The lower bar landed perfectly on the frame of the steps and made it impossible to close the door.

    A few days later after I'd stopped cursing myself I re-installed the second bar quite a bit lower on the door to clear the folding steps.

    Thank you, I may consider ordering a second one now..
