The opening direction doesn't bother me because my compartments are fill with 1000's and only free for storage when we are not surfing for the day.

On my front cushions....I put a strap in the middle across the opening with a snap on one side. When someone opens it and it wants to fall into the compartment, the strap keeps it from falling in. Again, it saves the vinyl. When you have to put boards or something big in there, undo the snap.

Genius... ! cost effective too.
