I am working on the cabin doors and would like to install some reinforcements and nutplates in the doors to attach door straps to. I would like some suggestions as to where on the door the straps should attach to be easily reached and used to hold onto with the door cracked while taxing for ventilation. Not having an airplane to sit in to determine where a good location on the door would be that would allow for a comfortable reach and yet be out of the way when not in use, I am soliciting ideas and pictures.
Thanks

I did this without the need for reinforcing the door. Looked all over for a decent strap.... then found these for $2.98 at $9.98 store in Roseville, CA. Can get them for you if you'd like. Slight modification to the strap and then paid to have a handle sewed. Works great, looks pretty good to.
