Small Modifications in the beginning .....

First of all, I must tell you that this trailer is the biggest little trailer you will ever find and the best!  When we first took delivery of our trailer in December 2009, we needed a fix for the shower curtain because the shower faucets and water line to the shower head blocked the curtain from closing all the way.  Lance provided us with a modfied curtain that would fit around the controls which were mounted on the vanity in the bathroom.

The curtain has an access hole that can be closed with velcro.  We added several other velcro tabs around the control and along each edge of the curtin.

Now the curtain stays in place and does not move when moving the shower head around.  The velcro was worked great and there is no problems with it coming off the shower wall or vanity.  I would prefer the controls were mounted on the outside wall, however we feel that the current solution is one that we can live with.

We also added a strip of velcro across the insets inside of the shower to help hold bottles when placed in them.  Otherwise we could not get any bottles to stay in place.

This same idea was used inside the medicine cabinet to keep everything in place and has worked very well.  The door shuts over the velcro and nothing falls out once you reach your destination and open the cabinet.  Where would this world be without velcro?

We never used the key rack installed above the entry door so we removed it, drilled two holes in a plastic paper towel holder to match the intallation holes on the key rack, and installed it.

We then cut a wooden down to insert between the two end caps to ensure the paper towels would not bounce loose.

Then simply add your paper towels and they are out of the way, and accessible from either inside or outside the trailer.

A great idea for keeping the dishes in place was to put a standard dish rack inside the cabinet above the sink and place the dishes in it as if they were drying.  This allows easy access and keeps everything safe (including the glass base of the microwave) while in transit.



Like many Lance trailer owners, we chose stackable containers to take advantage of the vertical space within the closet areas.  They really provide a lot of space and a small bar across the bottom keeps them from sliding out during transit.

The last modification we did when we first received the trailer was to add pads to the stabilizing arms to have a larger base area on the ground.  Since we never camped with the trailer without the pads, I can not discuss the overall change in stability however I like the larger base area.
