King pin lock

I use this one King Pin Lock but although it works fine, I don't like that you have to keep turning the key to lock/unlock it. Kind of a pain in the neck.

I have that one as well. I've come to realize that life gets easier if you twist the side opposite the key and just hold the key steady. :)

I used the same lock as Helmsey. Probably more important than the king pin lock was replacing the exterior storage locks with CH751 key with some nicer cam locks. Theft of items in the storage compartments while the camper is in storage is probably more common.

I have used the same one that ependydad listed for the last 10 years....even in my own yard.

It takes, what, 5-8 seconds to put on.

I use a simple king pin lock when it's in storage and unattended:

What are all of you using to lock your king pin when parked? Thanks!

Check with Cummins12V98 ,he has several locks for everything :B

Never used one in 50 years of rving. Buck and Duck may be on to something.

Nothing, in over 18 years.

If it's stored at home, in a separate fenced yard, a hungry rottie could be pretty effective. :B
