Secure Those Slide Out Corners Before They Blow Away

Many RVs including Travel Trailers, 5th Wheels and Motorhomes with slide out rooms have these corner pieces installed. They are an easy way to cover the slide out trim pieces that join together at a 45 degree angle. The problem with these pieces is that they become loose over time and eventually blow off on the side of the road somewhere in Texas. One solution is to remove them and reapply adhesive using a clamp to hold them in place until the glue thoroughly cures. A better way is to remove them, drill and countersink three or four holes, then reapply adhesive and screw them into place. Once the glue cures, cut the protruding screws off on the back side where the slide out meets the wall. This application will help keep these pieces in place, even in Texas. Keeping you from loosing it on the road - Jim Twamley, Professor of RVing
