Looks nice. Looks like you're going to use one of those metal spikes that pushes into a rubber stopper to keep it open? I didn't have much luck with that type on my rig. I switched to the plastic t-bar kind of thing with the plastic fitting on the door that you hook the bar into to keep it open. The rubber deal didn't hold good enough in the wind. I left the rubber deal on because it makes a good stopper when the door swings open so it doesn't smash into the siding. I bought the plastic bar thing slightly longer than the steel spike thing so when it's hooked open the steel spike thing doesn't quite reach the rubber thing.
