Abstract: Doors for recreational vehicles, such as compartment doors and entry doors, involving a door construction having an exposed panel and an inner panel which have large surface areas of thermal contact between the two panels, where the exposed panel is made of a material such as plastic having a similar coefficient of thermal expansion as the inner panel. Accordingly, the exposed panel and the inner panel expand and contract at similar rate, when exposed to temperature variations, thereby minimizing any possible distortion between the two panels. Additionally, structural members such as stiffeners may be interposed between the exposed panel and the inner panel to preclude the bowing and/or distortion on the door. Furthermore, the outer surface of the exposed panel may have a layer of ultra-violet protection material to guard the door against the harmful effects of ultra-violet sunlight.
