LANYARD HACK on a Volkswagen Caddy Camper | Opening Barn Doors From The Inside!
Volkswagen Caddy Lanyard Hack!
I’ll show you how to install a pullcord/lanyard hack enabling you to open your van’s back door(s) from the inside. Many modern van’s don’t have the ability to open the back barn doors from the inside. Therefore you can only open the door(s) from the outside which can be a pain if it’s raining or the ground outside it muddy. Therefore by fitting a pullcord or a lanyard to the doors locking mechanism, you can open the doors from the inside with ease.
To do this you’ll need a lanyard/pullcord, 2x cable ties and cable tie cutters (scissors will do).
As you’ll know a Volkswagen caddy van lacks an inside door handle on the barn doors. This can make it challenging to open them from the inside. Fortunately, you can use a lanyard to create an inside door handle easily. In this guide, we’ll show you how to create an inside door handle on your Volkswagen Caddy van’s barn doors using a lanyard.
To create a sturdy door handle, choose a flat, braided lanyard with a metal clip that can handle the weight of the barn doors. – Head to my van build materials page to buy one!
