Hi Arno, I realize that with your modification, the point at which you can attach the line to the door is further away from the wall than in my case. where I simply attached it to the cross wood and tt is perhaps for that reason that the balance weight created more friction. I think that if you extend the point of attachment to the right, the friction will be substantially reduced. For this you may need to fabricate a plate to extend the point of attachment of the door towards the wall.
