    This has happened several times in the past.

    Thanks Brian… I think this is the container that the closing mechanism are binding and are tough to seat…a door latch maintenance work party might help???

    Actually, the latches on container 3 work very well.  People must just be forgetting to lock up.

    Yes, I have noticed three additional times last month the hang glider storage containers have been left unlocked. Containers 1, 3 and 4.

    Were the locks off or just in the open position?  I would think it is obvious, but when securing a lock people should really yank on it to test that it is securely locked.  🤔
