Need photos of heavy dual aluminum hinge mounting

Hi,
I am going to modify my coach to install the heavy dual (2 separate) aluminum entrance door hinges so I can easily add an internal screen door. What would help immensely would be a couple of photos of the hinge mounting detail of what the open door mounting internals looks like. It seems like I need to cut an additional offset where the hinges for the screen door come inward toward the door. Just taking a couple of photos of your inside hinge mounting area with the door open and screen door both closed and open against the door would really help. I do not need anyone get inside the door internals to photo the inside mounting of the hinge to the door itself, as in the backup mounting plates inside the door. You could send the photos to my email address which is larry at forman dot net. Many thanks,

Larry Forman

Please cancel request for photos of door hinges.

As it happens, I found a neighbor that has a new AirStream and I was able to see what I needed. Many thanks.

BTW, the RV is a 1970 Ultravan that is powered by an Olds Toronado located in the back with 375 hp. A very unique classic RV. Do a google search for more info.

Regards,

Larry Forman
