    Default Skimmer Door

    have a 33 x 15 AG pool.
    My problem is my skimmer door keeps getting stuck in the "closed" position.
    At first I thought maybe there was not enough water in the pool, causing less water to keep it from getting stuck.
    But, the level is probably an inch from the top of the skimmer, and when we were in the pool causing waves, it got stuck again.
    It seems to be in the right position, and lined up.
    Any suggestions
    Thanks
    Barry

    If you have explored all other options involving water depth and stuff, you might need to sand down an edge. You might have had some settling causing a side to get jammed.

    One question I have had for a while...is the skimmer door suppose to swing in and out like a saloon door. Or is it suppose to get stopped from swinging into the pool side, by the frame.
