I think you guys will both really like the cb door and latch. The latch does get hot and a glove or hot pad is helpful when opening while cooking, but that is a small price to pay for such a solid door and solid locking latch.
In my case, I couldn’t shut the cooker down and had some trouble with temps using my stock door. The new door solved that completely.
Also, mine did have a couple wisps of smoke coming out of the corners for awhile. Don’t let that worry you if it happens. It’s not enough to affect cooking and it will be a huge improvement over stock.
Just my opinion. Have fun and looking forward to your cooks.
