Drawer latches

[Mongobird]

I just bought my first RV, which is a 2004 Itasca Meridian 34H. It was nice an clean, and I have been happy with it, except that rolling down the road the drawers and cabinets pop open and bang back and forth.

It appears that over the years several different latches have been used, and when I tried to duplicate the ones most recently installed, I found them to be useless.

The latches, like for can drawers, that use a thumb operated unlatch mechanism, appear to be all working fine. It's just all the others.

So what recommendations are there? Any one drive on rough roads and found the magic latch? It's difficult to always tell what works from the catalog description.

Thanks.

For cabinet doors that are a pair swinging to the left and right with handles in the middle, I use a mini-bunge cord (about 12-inches) to secure the handles together. (These are handy for other things such as securing items in the refrigerator, so I keep a supply on hand.)

For a cabinet door that is not one of a pair, I use a simple screen-door latch. Not elegant, but it is effective.

I have had no problem with drawers and have no suggestion there.

(My wife & I just finished our thanksgiving lunch of mushroom-tartlet appetizers, sweet-potato soup, baked oysters, and a medium-dry sherry. Not your usual thanksgiving fare, but we enjoyed it, just the two of us.)

A method we found to work was "child proof latches" for home use.

They arent expensive and they do work, but can be a nuisance when you want in.
