Re: Closing Efforts
If the torsion bars are adjusted correctly, opening and closing should be reasonably easy, no matter how large or small the person is.
Remember the sequence (it does make a difference). Close the back half first, and latch the 'curb' side first, then the 'street' side. Then, close the front half, again latching the 'curb' side first, then the 'street' side. Finally, fasten the small latches at the corners before moving the trailer down the road.
My wife & I used to take a side... she on the 'curb' side, me on the 'street' side... mainly because she could use the open upper door to access the top of the back half and give her the extra leverage to make sure is was down far enough to latch. She would let me know when her side was latched, then I latched mine. Once the back half is latched down on both sides the front half is easy, since you can reach the top and pull it down the last couple inches to make latching easier.
I hope that helps those who are having difficulty.
