wow you folks actually snap the stove vent closed. I never have locked it down in seven years.
I'm not sure how you still have the flap. The hinge pins don't last. Even with the tabs closed mine broke within 3 years of new as was only still there because of the locking tabs. Is yours a different style?
I've since added an internal lock to avoid the overnight tap-tap-tap with a bonus of holding it shut if I forget to lock the tabs for travel.
I use the awning pull rod to open/close the locks.
Camper was built in 07. I've had it since 2000. It's still there
Yours is a different style. Mine does not have that center bar. Even if your hinges broke, it couldn't fall out. Likely your hinges are much stronger too.
