Bob: It sounds like a Birchaven, outfitted by Coachman: ours is also
located on the drivers side, midway down the side. The tank was located in
(under) the dinette/sink area.
We also had to replace the door, the old one was just too banged up. Tom
had to have one fabricated by a metal shop, as there was no other option at
the time. And for that reason the door is now fastened to the coach with
1/8 " airline cable, so we'll never lose it again!

Cinnabar has a replacement propane door that includes a new frame, for the
Royale/Birchaven setup. A flange on the top of the door slides in the groove of a
tubular flange on the bottom of the top frame member. Thus the door is hinged and
won't fall off if you inadvertently fail to latch the door.
