Review on ๐Ÿ”’ AP Products 1212.1215 013-257 Standard Bauer RV Entrance Door Lock: Reliable Security for Your Recreational Vehicle by Robby Fingaw

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent quality. Small modification. Closes better than before

I installed this on my 1981 Coachman 20' Surrey. With a little tweaking it fits and looks good. Now closes MUCH smoother. All in all I recommend this product. Two changes had to be made: 1. The new handle was slightly longer than the bolt lock. I used a jigsaw puzzle (see photos) to score this area.2. Drill larger holes in the firing pin. I used a 1/2" drill bit. As a result I had to drill at an angle from the outside in order for the new handle to fit. slight pressure to slide it through the holes. A latch is included in this kit that my original RV setup did not In order for the deadbolt to work properly (on my RV) the entire door frame has to be removed to install the new latch Lock installed well, no deadbolt installation.

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • Big and bulky
