I can open your outside lock

If you have the CH751 locks I would definitely change them out. Bryan posted the link to my solution and it has worked out well for me.

X2. If someone wants my stinky slinky that bad, they can have it.

My lock was rubbish, so I added this (there are plates on the other side - bolts go through):



Camper is left completely unlocked at home so if anyone wants to nose around they can rather than damaging it. So this is not to secure the camper when left unattended in an insecure location, but more to stop the sort of fast break-in you might get when a vehicle is left on a street during the day.

It does have a much stronger rubber-coated padlock on there - the one in the picture is just to test it out.

So again, not aimed at stopping someone with a pry-bar willing to make a lot of noise (we avoid parking places where they could get away with a noisy and messy break-in). It also is designed to look like the homer it is - that sort of "my locks broken so I fixed this on quickly" look, combined with "I am too poor to afford proper locks, so if you do break in you'll just find a camper full of more worthless broken stuff" (there is a good degree of truth in both statements actually).

See, I agree. I'm not worried about fellow RV's any where near as much as locals. Where I go camping is usually out in the sticks---and out here in PNW, out in the sticks is where a lot of drug addicts, tweakers and copper thieves live. Most of the theft problems we see out here when camping are because of the locals, not other RV'ers. When they get caught, they have keys.
Some VERY bad places out here-- Dosiwallips State Park and Evans Creek ORV park.
