Combination lock on a slam latch?

RV locks are worthless simply because RV doors frames are very flimsy and be open with any type of pry bar or large screwdriver.
Only honest behavior is keeping your stuff safe.
Get any type of lock you want, if a real thief shows up to steal your stuff it will be gone and you will have a bent door frame to show for it.
Leave your worry and fear at home.
Yes you/we are vulnerable while camping,but don't let it bother you it's only stuff.
Focus more on enjoying yourself and your RV junk will take care of itself.
While I'm not against reasonable precaution, locking,unlocking re-locking is way too much work. Keep valuables out of site and let your insurance deal with the rest.
Camping is way more relaxing that way.

BUY keys put them on key rings. Leave them by the door.

I guess it is more related to locking them at night and then needing to open them in the morning. Locking them when we leave the campground, unlocking when we get back.

As for what is worth locking up.... I probably have $200-$300 worth of tools/items in the storage. It would just be really annoying to not have that stuff while on a trip with the trailer.

My DW is/was paranoid about locking up the compartments which led to us being locked out of them once when the keys were left behind….. Now she doesn't lock them till we get set up.. I didn't dare say " I told you so" LoL !! ;)

I just leave mine open while we're parked. Not much of value in there and only a screwdriver would be needed to open them anyway unless you have the right key (doesn't everybody?) to unlock them..

B.O.

Why not just leave them open till ready to hit the road or done setting up?

My Prime Time Crusader has slam latches with a key lock. With 4 of us running around the trailer helping with arrival/departure, etc, I'm always asking for the keys which drives me nuts.

I see that there is a combination lock for locks that use a lever on the compartment doors, but I can't find a solution for a combination lock on a slam latch style door. Most of my doors are slam latch.

Any ideas?

Make/buy extra keys. Unless you change the locks, they're all a common key. #751, IIRC.
