First, the entry door is fully open, you're sitting or standing inside, and the original door handle is just out of reach — so you end up leaning out or stepping down to grab it and pull the door closed. Second, every time you do reach the door, you're pulling the whole thing shut using the original locking handle, which puts load on the one part you don't want to wear out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adjustable caravan screen door handle solves both. It's an extra horizontal grab bar that mounts across the inside of your screen, security or mesh door. It doesn't replace your normal locking handle — it simply gives you a proper full-width bar to push and pull the door with. It's one of those simple caravan accessories that you wonder how you did without.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eClose the door easily from inside\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the cross bar fitted, you no longer have to reach for the original handle at the far edge of the door. Sit or stand inside, take hold of the bar, and pull the screen door towards you. It's an easy grab point that's right where your hand naturally goes — handy when you're getting in and out, or when the door is open and the handle is awkward to reach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTake the strain off your original door handle\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCaravan entry door locks have several moving parts. When the cross bar becomes your everyday grab point, you're no longer dragging the whole door around by the locking handle every time. This helps reduce unnecessary pulling force on the original handle and lock mechanism through normal daily use. (It's a practical upgrade, not a repair — it won't fix or guarantee a lock, but it does give the handle an easier life.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAdjustable 550–730mm to suit different doors\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bar telescopes so you can set it to your door. The end pieces slide along the centre bar, giving an adjustable mounting span from \u003cstrong\u003e550mm to 730mm\u003c\/strong\u003e, with a comfortable 260mm centre grip cover. That range covers a lot of common Australian and New Zealand caravan screen\/security doors, including popular \u003cstrong\u003e622mm\u003c\/strong\u003e-wide doors (as used on many Camec Odyssey\/Aero, Dometic CaraD and Aussie Traveller DCE doors) and narrower \u003cstrong\u003e572mm\u003c\/strong\u003e doors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease measure first.\u003c\/strong\u003e A door's stated width isn't always the exact flat distance available between the two points where the end brackets will sit. Before ordering, measure the mounting distance on your own screen\/security door and check it falls within 550–730mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSimple to fit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMounting hardware is included. In short: slide the end pieces onto the bar so the screw holes line up, measure your door with it closed, set the bar to length, position the brackets and fix them with the supplied screws. If your door is narrower than the parts, they can be trimmed shorter. Before you drill, double-check the position doesn't interfere with the door lock, mesh, frame, blind, seals or the way the main door operates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy caravanners fit one\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGives you a convenient full-width grab point on the screen door\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMakes the door easier to pull closed from inside\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLess need to haul the door around by the original locking handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHelps reduce everyday strain on the original handle and lock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAdjustable 550–730mm — suits many common door sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eComfortable centre grip; black finish suits common black door frames\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMounting screws included; straightforward DIY fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for caravans, motorhomes, campers and RVs where the door size fits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 × adjustable screen door cross bar handle (two end pieces + centre bar + two mounting brackets), 4 × ST4.2 × 16mm screws and 10 × ST3.5 × 16mm screws.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis is an additional grab\/cross bar handle.
