Does anyone else have/had a problem with their P180 door? Mine seems to be a bit warped. It is not flush right where the magnet area is, and sticks out a bit. Has anyone else had this problem? And if so, will Antec replace the door without charge?

Click to expand...


is it not flush where the lock is? i know people have had a problem with it warping there, but if like most people you leave it locked it straightens out, but if you leave it unlocked it warps back.
 
My door is just fine, has been perfectly flush and straight for 3 months now....maybe you all need to stop hitting your door with a hammer :p
 
There have been a million threads about the door. I'll lay it out once more:

The door is made up of at least two layers. These layers have different rates of thermal expansion. The cooler the ambient air is out side of the case, the more of a bow you'll get in the door, with the bow right where the indent is for the front jacks.

A simple fix is to glue something that won't bend easily inside the front door. Have a small diameter carbon fiber spindle handy? :p
 
Yes a support rib glued to the inside would work.

The thing is... I love this case to the point where I don't want to mod it.

I had a plastic part break... part of the large bottom fan. I think I might contact antec for a replacement even instead of just rigging something.

hehe I have never felt like that about a case before.
