I wonder if you could do that with just some kind of peg....or a sliding latch at the top of the door into the rail. And isn't it difficult to make sure you go straight into the door?
DH removed the large grate above the pantry...never even knew it was there because of a decorative item...and fixed the rail and installed a screw as a stop....seems to work great. Now we just need to keep it latched, and will try a combo of all your suggestions..except maybe the bungee cord. thanks, Cyndy
