ARANA RV Entry Door Gas Struts 20" 10 lb Pair — 19.7" Extended Replace OEM 125719

ARANA 125719 SX200P1-11-DC gas struts are a pair of 10 lb, 20-inch (extended) replacement lift supports designed to open and hold lightweight RV entry doors, compartments and cabinets.

These two gas-assisted struts are built as direct-fit alternatives for several OEM part numbers, offering controlled lift and steady hold for camper doors, outswing basement panels, range hoods and similar lightweight lids. Each strut provides a measured 10-pound push so doors between about 8–12 pounds and 25–40 inches in side length lift smoothly and stay open. Note: mounting brackets (10 mm) are required but not included.

How do these gas struts improve opening and closing an RV entry door?

The ARANA struts add a gas-assisted counterforce that reduces the effort needed to lift heavier entry and compartment doors, preventing sudden slams and providing gradual movement. They stabilize the door in the open position so you can load, unload or enter the vehicle safely.

• 10 lb force per strut for consistent lift assistance
• Smooth extension and compression to avoid abrupt motion
• Pair configuration supports balanced operation of one door
• Reduces wear on hinges and door latches by sharing load

What size and fitment details should I check before buying?

Measure both the door weight and the hinge-to-attachment distance to ensure compatibility: these struts extend to 19.69" and compress to 11.62", so mounting geometry must allow those lengths. They are rated for doors roughly 8–12 lbs and side lengths around 25–40", and will require a 10 mm mounting bracket for installation.

• Extended length: 19.69 inches; compressed: 11.62 inches
• Force: 10 pounds per strut; sold as a pair (does not double force)
• Intended lid/door weight: ~8–12 lbs; side length: ~25–40 inches
• Mounting bracket: 10 mm bracket needed (brackets not included)

Are these ARANA struts compatible with my OEM part numbers?

Yes — this pair is offered to replace commonly used OEM references, so they can be used as direct replacements on many RV models and accessory doors. Confirm your current part number against the list below or match by measured length and force rating for best results.

• Cross-references: 125719, SX200P111DC, SX200P1-11-DC and similar codes
• Works for RV entry, cabinet, compartment, toolbox lids and range hoods
• Verify physical dimensions and force instead of relying only on part codes
• Two struts included; use both where manufacturer originally used a pair

What should I expect during installation and maintenance?

Installation is typically straightforward for someone comfortable with basic hand tools: remove old supports, confirm bracket locations, secure the 10 mm brackets (if needed), and clip the new struts into place. No special fluids are required; keep pivot points clean and inspect periodically for wear or gas leakage.

• Simple clip-on ball socket style fitment for fast replacement
• Keep attachment points free of dirt and corrosion for long life
• Inspect annually and replace if gas pressure or motion is compromised
• ARANA offers 365 days of product support after purchase

Who is this for: The ARANA 125719 gas strut pair is intended for RV owners, camper DIYers, mobile repair shops and anyone needing a reliable replacement for lightweight doors and lids that require about 10 lb of lift assistance. Choose these if you need a dependable, measured lift support that matches OEM references and fits common RV cabinet and entry applications — just remember to confirm door weight, mounting spacing and the need for 10 mm brackets before ordering.
