I looked at my setup yesterday and it’s slightly different to photos posted by folks in this thread in the area where the two vertical trim pieces butt up against the rubber retainer and where the roller assemblies are located. The metal plate the rubber retainer affixes to that sits behind the large strike plate with four recessed Philips head bolts, is much further back on our 1973 than in photos and the schematic. The two end tongues (grooved in the back) do not reach the metal guide rail the plastic trim sits on in the door coach door entrance frame. It doesn’t create a continuous and seamless barrier as seen in images elsewhere in this thread. I’ll post a video showing the screen door, surrounding trim, and where the trim interfaces with the screen door roller assemblies in our 1973 as soon as I can get to it.
Btw, the only changes I’ve made over to the screen door over the years are cosmetic in nature, plus adding the (missing) trim pieces from Bob Burkitt, replacing the two roller assemblies, and installing the rubber retainer bump stop purchased from
@Jim Kanomata recently. Since the setup is working for me and — even though it’s not the cleanest — I’m leaving everything as is.
