Be careful how you pack your garage (1 Viewer)

[wanderer]

I only have access through one door that rises on gas struts . When we arrived onsite i went to get the EHU cable out but could not turn the lock (even worse the beer/wine was in there). I realised that i had been getting slapdash when packing loading high at the back sloping towards the door and obviously in this case the chairs had moved jamming up against the latch on the lock . I tried to rock it free down a bumpy road and driving on a steep slop to no avail , i contemplated drilling 2 round holes under the bed base to gain access . In the end i managed to knock out the 2 hinge pins lifting the door forward .
Now i have put covers over the back of the locks and make sure i pack flat

Not your fault, that is plain bad design.

Hymer's have covers on the back of the lock, I'm feeling smug.

Edit:
Not so smug now, just had a look the cover does not go over the lever in the locked postion.

I just lift the bed up.

A bit difficult with tools locked in the garage and in our case a hell of a lot of screws, heating vents etc., to unscrew.

If I had a garage i think I would now be looking at the hinge pins

Just an empty driveway according to your profile.

Ah... there is that...

(...though I have a 'borrowed' PVC that doesn't have a garage and neither will my lovely new one when it eventually arrives)

That worries me now... I'll have to check the lock on the hatch to my attic. Actually I'll get the manservant to do it.
