The handle looks good, mounts well, is an easy 10 minute swap to replace the OEM lock, BUT…mechanically, it is plastic - the mechanical linkage arms and all visible pieces, other that the striker plates and locking pin are plastic. I kept and used the OEM metal backing plate instead of using the RV Lock plastic backing plate/cover. A plastic linkage security device that will possibly be attacked with a pry bar or large pliers is a bad idea. Security is the key word here. If you could combine the quality build of the OEM lock that I took out and replaced with the RV Locks, you’d have the perfect setup. My main reason for purchasing these was to add additional locking latches where some bays only had a single lock, and equally so, to go to a single unique key. With buying these, I feel like I took a step backwards from a quality/security standpoint. I’d pay a little more to have the feeling that I have not compromised quality in securing my RV.

The size and shape is perfect as a replacement. It was great being able to get it keyed alike with my other RVLock purchases. This particular baggage compartment handle is mostly plastic, unlike the existing one that came from the factory that happened to be all metal. I had issues with the install, where the tongue (latch bolt) extended farther than the catch would allow. Additionally, when trying to size the catch hole to match, as I was testing the fit, a plastic piece that was part of the opening mechanism broke and rendered the whole unit inoperative. RVLock was quick to send a replacement, so kudos to them! However, I am rethinking the use of this handle/lock set since it's >90% plastic.
Six stars. Easy to install. Very solid. Easy to program. Did not have to cut anything. Plug and play. Hands down best upgrade I’ve made to the 5th wheel. The key fobs are the best I have seen. Very sturdy, not cheap. Wife happy. Baggage locks are next!
According to Jessie, all of their keys are "unique" to them. Their keys are not the same # as factory key #'s.
They fit the factory openings perfect with no modifications. Also nice to have all the locks keyed the same.
