TV Repacement

[H2H1]

I agree, I think I will have mine built out of blonde maple to match what is there. But one question, what that of hinges did you use. I am thinking of a piano hinge the lenght of the new door just for extra security. I also notice that the doors to the left and right side may not open as far they once did, but that OK to.

Hey bandalop, I went and looked at mine to see if I could do it also. But I have 2 air vents and 2 lights just infront of the TV area. Did you have that? I was thinking with those item infront the TV I could not raise it up high enough to lock it up.

I did use a piano hinge, the length of the mounting board. As for the left and rignt door opening, they still can open the full height as the TV can rotate to the left or right to open the doors and then placing the TV back in the mid position, each door edge rests on the top edge of the TV.

I have a air vent in the ceiling as well and a 4' florescent light fixture above. You and I pretty much have the same RV, mine is a 2004 33' Southwind workhorse chassis. The TV extending out from the mounting board about three inches, and being close to the ceiling, keeps the TV from opening upward a full 90 degrees. It opens probably 50 - 60 degrees. This still allows access to the inside storage and does not interfer with the light and vent above.
