Review on YOMILINK Upgraded Trailer Deadbolt Replacement by Jim Booth

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not very strong and probably won't last long with prolonged use

I like having one key for both locks and that's a big plus. Although the reviews say they are durable, they are not. The functioning of the mechanism clearly lacks quality. I can't imagine them holding up to much use. As I live in my own RV this is an important factor. When you turn the key or use the handle from the inside, there's a pretty loose and awkward locking/unlocking motion. Also, the center of the cut part of the key leaves a VERY narrow part that can easily break. in this case. I used graphite in the lock to try and smooth out the locking mechanism but to no avail. If the lock sticks, the key will surely break off. If I've rarely used my RV I might not worry because with limited use it may be ok if you always turn the key VERY gently (and they're lucky), but for those who use it frequently it is it's just a time before you're probably going to have a big problem. need a temporary ban until they get a good one.
