Crank out frameless windows question
For the folks that have crank out frameless windows do you have problems with them opening while traveling down the road? I have them in our new MH and we hit some pretty heavy winds this last trip...

I had the windows cranked down tightly. Like I said the wind was blowing pretty good. There are no latches on the windows just friction of the crank down.
I well figure out some type of locking device to keep them from opening.
On my storage doors they are closed and locked. I always walk around and give them all a tug to make sure they are latched and locked and it is a pretty good tug that I give them. They are all latched and locked securely but they seem to still open at times. This are big bus style doors that swing out and some of them are over 40" long and when they swing out it becomes a traffic hazard. I pulled up to a construction area one time and had just looked at my storage doors prior to this and all were closed. There was a concrete barrier at this location. I was watching the light signal for me to go and thank goodness for a good Samaritan in a pickup up behind me as his passenger jumped out and ran up an closed the door for me. This saved me from ripping it off on the barrier. I have now used bungee cords on the inside of the some doors to keep the from opening all the way if they come unlatched.
