Basement compartment bin locks

Hello all,
The "cam" locks on my '89 Holiday Rambler Imperial are almost toast and getting very difficult to lock/unlock. There's absolutely no identifying model or company marks on these and I've done an online search and all replacements I see aren't long enough shafts. Anybody have a similar issue and what have you done? Thanks for your input! Greg
  • Many of the big box hardware stores have them in stock in various lengths. Hard part is getting enough with the same key without having them re-keyed.

  • Take one out and measure the length of the housing. Any competent locksmith shop should be able to order them. 1-7/8' is as long as they come. About $10 each. Some Lowes crry them. You also might try brake cleaner and some Triflow teflon lube or Houdini which is hard to find. Don t use WD40.
