[QUOTE="Broke Knee, post: 103879, member: 1860"] Here's another question. I'd like to have a front deck with two openings, the first opening towards the rear to get at the anchor. The second opening behind the first but opens towards the front. I envision a hinge between the two so one hinge opens both towards each other. The problem is in transport. How do I keep these closed if they aren't actually attached to the frame below (in which case I wouldn't be able to open them)? I need to either have a small piece in between (scrwed into the frame) which would need twice as many hinges. Or I can use a latch but don't want the extra deck clutter or a magnet underneath but not sure if that will stay down if I hit a big bump. Any ideas? My space is limited as I'm just covering the front bench so not a lot of room to work with. I'm placing a 2X3 frame above the seat to gain the extra space I need but still want the foot space between the front and second seat. Thanks [/QUOTE]
