I am wondering about a 5 ft or so long piece of angle iron or something between the two door latch mounting points to help distribute the energy from various directional forces. Then I also wonder about beefing up that entire latch area with a clamp-on plate or something maybe even the entire length of the door as well. Interesting topic for sure. Thanks again Steve. With your background, I am sure it's just fine the way it is. Doesn't stop me from overthinking it! | | |
