Securing the washer/dryer/closet bifold door

[lcary]

We have a 2013 36FB. We have a problem with the Bi-fold doors on the washer/dryer closet....which is next to the shower. The door comes open when on the road. (We don't have a washer and dryer in the closet).
Has anyone else had this problem? If so, I would appreciate hearing about your solution.

Thanks for any help.

We also have a '13 FB with the bifold closet door. I added a second latch at the top of the right door which has helped. Since installing the second latch the door has not been a problem.

Also have '13 FB & til the last trip the door has never came open, but the last trip the interstate was horrible & somehow it bent the catch, I straightened it so will see next trip.

I installed some additional / heaver latches on our W/D Bi-Fold Door and bedroom closet doors to keep them closed on the road.
Been working good so far

Our unit came only with catches on the doors closest to the hinges, not the other 2 bi-fold doors. I installed a catch on each of these doors and they hold the doors closed.

We installed a common drawer pull into the frame and then attached a Bungee Ball Loop. After closing door securely we pull the cord over to the door handle. Haven't had a problem since. Even if door becomes unlatched it will remain closed and not being swinging wildly in the hallway.

I just added 1" piece of velcor at mid point to frame and both doors. Works great Cheap and easy

Another 'shouldn't have to do it' mod

In the new to us coach, the catches are tight enough the wife has to strain to pull them open !!!

The FL has this same bi fold door. It swung open during a rough trip and damaged hinges so badly, they required replacement. I added additional catches but I'm not satisfied. Something that actually "locks" until opened is needed; just haven't figured out what would look nice just yet.
