Same scenario for us. We pick up our 21' Escape in July of this year. If we come up with a viable solution, we'll share it here. Safe travels!

Does Escape still install the curtain across the door, we found that to be useful in our 21 when one goes outside and the other wants some privacy inside.....

When we were at ETI last week, none of the models had a curtain across the door.

Has anyone asked for one across the door, I'm thinking of adding one to my new style 19, I miss it's practicality.

We also have the same scenario. I've been working on a couple of solutions that I won't be able to really think through until we get our trailer in April, and I can tinker a bit, but in anticipation of what I might do I had the wall between bathroom and the bed reinforced.

One option so far is to use something like this but much longer than 4' and that can be formed into a curve. I have a 10' piece now, and I think I can still get a 12' piece. Then I have to have it formed in a curve and figure out how to support it on the wall. Probably have to create my own brackets since I want to be able to slide the curtain back along the wall.

Hopefully I'll have it done when we go to the Spring NOG.

Maybe adapt a curtain hanger like this? Works good in boats and doesn't need much headroom.

Charlie,

That looks like it would work better than the Aluminum oval tubing I have, since it made to be bendable by hand. Recmar also has this track which I could attach directly to the reinforced wall. Thanks!

Yeah, I've been considering it myself. They also have bendable plastic tracks. Wifey sleeps in while I do dogs and coffee.

The shower curtain looks good.
Some of the others are hard to slide in the tracks.We used them for curtains in the Casita.
