Hey Everyone
I was messaged by the storage company where i am parking my 2019 3170BH saying that it looked like a roof vent blew off the camper. Went to check it out, and found that someone used the back roof ladder to get up on top, rip 3 covers off and kick in the fans and get in through the roof. they went through everything (didnt steal much of anything, since it was winterized).

I am wondering if there is anyone out there that has a type of ladder that is removable or foldable - im a bigger guy so i dont want to work with that Lippert extendable latter (with the black bar). i am thinking if i can find something that uses the same spots for the studs, i could use a couple of the spots from the existing ladder and not have a ton of holes to fill in with caulk....

Does what i am asking make sense? any ideas on what i could do to stop (or at least make thieves think twice about trying) going up there?

They must have been high on meth to go to that extreme. And why break 3. Just one would do. Must have been a teeny punk to fit through that hole
A screwdriver would open the door on less time so I wouldn’t worry about the ladder, I would find another storage place

They were high indeed! As pointed out, a screw driver to the door would have got the better result.

+1 for moving storage spots. What did the cops say, and do you have any recourse? We're there cameras? Was the lot patrolled or monitored?

Bad luck. Hope it goes well for you.
