The companionway door got the pull knob and the door stop
installed. They both make a big difference in usability.
Space between the knob and window
The door knob makes
opening the door much easier than using the key while it is in the lock. That
method works sometimes but in other times it jams or is ineffective making some
curse words possible. No more.
Debbie glued the teak spacer and the door stop bottom piece together so we could get them centered on installation. A screw really holds it all together
Glued
Stop is screwd on and then the outside of the door stop is made to screw onto the inside.
Against gelcoat
The door stop eliminates us putting a rag behind
the door to keep it from bending thus breaking in time. I originally wanted to
have it out a bit so the door would hit it then the eyebrow. No way because
when you lean against it the door bangs against the eyebrow and that happens a
lot. So we have it just a bit out past the eye brow so it has equal pressure
when the door is leaned against and does not bang.
