In any case, did you try any of the suggestions listed here?

Hi Robert,

No. Have not got round to drilling and tapping as has been suggested - just keep knocking it back in!

Lately the bottom pin has only been working up during the summer months when the door is opened fully back against the trailer. Last winter it stayed put.

Ours hasn't come out when travelling - only when stationary.

Eventually, I will fit 1/4" high tensile bolts with chrome dome nuts then, hopefully, that's it sorted.
