  • Patent number: 4268997
    Abstract: A device for holding a recreational vehicle compartment access door in an open position includes a bracket plate having a pair or oppositely extending arms which are interconnected and offset by an intermediate bracket portion to which is attached a laterally projecting pin. The device is attached to a pinless hinge connecting the access door to its frame by opening the door and inserting the pin axially into an end of the hinge so that the arms contact radially opposed surfaces on the door and frame and hold the door open. The pin is adjustable along the intermediate bracket portion toward or away from the arm that contacts the frame, making the device readily adaptable to a wide variety of hinge and frame configurations.
