Assuming you have a twin axle trailer?
You also said jacks, not stabilizers. Jacks can and will and are made to lift the trailer. We are not talking about stabilizers.
I lift the frame at the axle point. I used a bottle neck hydro jack, not scissors jack. For a dual axle I put the jack between the axles under the frame if possible, or as close to the axle as I can get if in front or behind the axles. This does not put any new stresses on the frame and lifts the frame at about where the axles hold the frame anyway. Or easier to just lift the axle, not the frame. One axle is fine and will not damage the frame, body, or door or bend anything. Your trailer goes on one axle all the time driving it around (one of 4 wheels unloaded anyway).
I do this only in extreme situations if I have to park off level and my other leveling method is too short.
Parking on ramps or boards or rocks is much preferred to me. It is easier than crawling around with a jack.
OP is talking about installing a leveler system, not mucking around with a bottle jack every time he parks the camper.
