I just buy from Fastec themselves for the locks for the RV door. If you have the key number (it is also printed on a label viewable from the handle), you can order a key and get it in a couple days.
For the storage compartments, if they use cam locks, I'd consider replacing them with Combi Cams, or "automotive grade" locks... after having a CH751 key snap off, I went this route using a FJM Security Products lock with a dust shutter. The key is double-sided and thicker and doesn't feel like it will shear off at any moment. There are more secure locks (Bell, Abloy, Medeco), but a long screwdriver will make short work of the storage compartment door.
