Changed all locks to Keyed a like

[seaeagle2]

I spent about an hour this morning swapping my entrance door lock, and two pass through storage doors and the outside shower door locks so they are all keyed alike. I've been aware since the 90's about the ch751 key thing. I mostly did it so I only need 1 key,and with the black plastic head, it's unique. Plus we got the key with the led light built into it. I got them from this place http://rvlocksandmore.com/

Old Biscuit - Screw driver won't work so well in a 'round key' lock. Not saying that it can't be broken into but fits the theme of keeping 'honest people honest' and 'running faster than the next guy from the bear.' I put these on my basement locks and like them EXCEPT they have to be in locked position to remove the key.

I only have two keys on my TT. The door key and the storage bin key. Never considered it an issue.

I suppose if I had 4 or 5 it would be annoying.

Ordered all the hitch and tongue locks from etrailer. Their online order form lets you tell them what and how many. Houses.... Well one time deal with the same locksmith doing it. Cost a couple hundred but it has given us years of convenience.

That's why I just changed all by storage door and shower door key locks to thumb locks. Now no more keys and if someone wants in they don't have to destroy the door doing so which they would if it takes a key.

I have all my hitch and trailer tongue locks keyed the same. With multiple TVs and Trailers it is such a conveneince. Plus DW and Sons use them independently as well. E-Trailer lets you order them like that. In fact, our sons houses are nearby and each of our houses are keyed the same as each other. Again, very convenient and we are all very respectful to call first before entering. No answer, no permission, no enter!!! We all travel a lot and have pets, plants, etc.....

One key to rule them all, best mod I've ever done. We got ours from the same place.

Thanks seaeagle. I've been meaning to do this for simplicity for a while now, but haven't got to it yet.
