What's this for?

Anyone tell me the purpose of this bracket on the top hinge in the rear cupboard door?

I've noticed there isn't one on the bottom hinge, or one on either of the wardrobe door hinges.

Looks like a restrictor to stop the door before it hits the cupboard

ah interesting... doesn't work lol !

Looks like a bolt, holding the van together. If you undo it you would find out quite quickly I imagine.

 

[myvanrodney]

you are spot on! Looks like i've inadvertently bent mine out of shape.

If I recall it stops the door at a position that means if you were to shut the hatch with the door open then the hatch would push the door shut rather than crushing it….. but I never tested the theory!
