The battery life on our factory installed lock of the same part number on our Lance Travel Trailer has been about a year and seems to perform well in day to day use. We never use the key fob much, but have it on our spare keyset that we use when Stella, our Beagle, has a guest dog walker for when we go on overnight excursions away from the campground. We would never have bought this lock if it were not already installed, but it has performed well. If ever we are coming home after the quiet hour period we just use our manual key to open and close it - then there is no loud chirp. The purpose of the loud chirp is to discourage would-be burglars, but we have not ever had any burglars in 8 years of full-timing except for the time in 2014 when someone stole the running boards from our 2012 F-350 dually KingRanch while our Lance truck camper was still on the truck. We had gone up to see mom in the hospital overnight and when we came back two days later I noticed it was difficult to step up into the truck. After speaking with the Sheriff Deputy, we now carry two $100 game cameras with us that we mount in opposite corners of our campsite and so far have not had anything but raccoon burglars come to see us overnight since, LOL. We will let you know if we have any lock performance issues on our end for comparison.

It looks like with Alibaba you have a minimum order size for their $50 per lock. Here's a lick to the guy I bought from on Ebay. And when you purchase from RV Lock I would guess you get a fairly good warrant. Also if I had ordered the lock when I purchased the trailer it would have cost me $900, so the markup has no end. That's why I purchased the trailer with very few option and I am installing them myself for a fraction of the dealer price. Thanks for your time and channel.

Nearly all of the newer RVLock V4 handles have a "silence mode". By holding down the 1 button for 5 seconds, you can silence the beeps of the handle, which works great for RV Parks. Simply hold down the 1 button again to engage the sound. The handle also has what's called the "QuickLock" feature. If you hold the Lock button down for 2 seconds it automatically engages the deadbolt and locks your handle without needing to enter your password, thus extending keypad life.

Thanks. It would be nice if using the keypad the beep volume level could be programmed, or maybe it can but isn't a published feature? In silent mode does the low battery warning still work?

As far as I know, the sound is all one system. The beeps on the keypad can't be programmed separately, it's more you either get the sound or you don't. But as far as letting you know when the batteries are low, yes! It still does. Instead of a series of beeps letting you know the batteries are low, after you hit the lock/unlock button there will be a pause before the deadbolt actually moves. Sorry that took so long to reply. I had to look into that and see with my own handle.

Great video, Ray, thanks!! Just as an idea, you might think about using the remote most often rather than not using it much at all. Reasoning behind this idea is this could potentially minimize any excess wear on the keypad, possibly giving it a longer life before the vinyl keypad began to show signs of wear. The switch on the inside could be turned off at night for security in case you had that concern of someone stumbling on your site with nefarious intentions. Overall, great video and we really appreciate all your content. Did get a chuckle when you gave the camera the sheepish look when bringing out the powered screwdriver! :-)

@richard33657 жыл бұрын
Also, my understanding of these types of locks (they make them for "brick-and-mortar" houses as well) is that you mainly use the fob or key, and the code is meant for temporary use only. For example, have somebody walk your dog while you're gone then change the code when you get home, even if this means you have to give the other person a new code every day. This prevents 1: somebody remembering/learning the code and using it later when you aren't expecting them, and 2: wear-and-tear of the buttons that could give intruders a better guess at your code.

hi Ray. Love your channel. I installed this on my rig and one thing I dont like, when you collapse your handle/hand rail for steps, the added thickness of the door lock on the outside hits the hand rail so it wont sit flush to the door when traveling.

I did some research on locks before I bought my 5th wheel. It showed signs of being broken into at some point while it was owned by one of its two previous owners. There were pry marks on the door edge and the window door glass had been broken and replaced. Apparently, the thieves could not pry the door open and simply broke the glass, cut the screen, and reached through to unlock the door from the inside by the thumb latch. A far better way to secure your RV is to use a good home type deadbolt lock (bump key resistant) which is keyed inside and held together with tamper-resistant screws. If thieves break the window they will not be able to unlock the door from the inside without a key. The normal RV lock and handle is still used on the door when this deadbolt security is not needed. I have seen this arrangement used on many trailers and RV's. It may not be as pretty, but it is better.
@robertfoster85007 жыл бұрын
My 5th wheel came with this exact lock Ray just installed. While in storage, thieves broke a window and entered my trailer. But because I always use the key and lock both locks, once inside my trailer, they could not open the door. You see, you can open the deadbolt from inside but you can’t open the door latch from the inside if the key was used to lock it from the outside. That it why I do not use the electronic portion of this lock because that only locks the deadbolt. I use keys and lock both. This practice saved my televisions cuz the scum that broke in, couldn’t get the tv’s out!
@thomaslevy21197 жыл бұрын
True. Two locks are always better than one. However, if the thieves were smart (most aren't), and had enough time, they could have just taken the lock apart while they were inside and unlocked it. That is where tamper-resistant screws come in. Ordinary screws can be made tamper-resistant simply by drilling the screw slots off the heads of Phillips screws. However, you may need a screw extractor to remove the screws if you ever plan to change the lock.

Break one of the emergency exit windows, unlatch the red levers and enter, another is to rip off a roof vent and send in the skinny thief first. Also, looking at the door it's nothing a large crowbar couldn't pop in seconds. My trailers frame is aluminum stud I don't see practical any way of stopping real criminals since RVs are so flimsy but a locked door at least shows its a legally a break-in for insurance and a little-improved security isn't a bad thing to stop normally honest folks in the campground or kids messing around. Cheers! Ray
@thomaslevy21197 жыл бұрын
Also true. However, a better, double-keyed deadbolt lock on the door can discourage potential break-ins, especially when an RV is parked in a storage lot having little security. Anything that causes thieves to work harder or take more time to break into (or get out of with their loot) may make them look for another RV that is easier to open, sparing yours. As the old saying goes, "Locks just help honest people to stay honest."

@LoveYourRV7 жыл бұрын
I just got it so don't have any experience with what normal battery drain is but a few other commentators have reported good battery life, like a year or more.

You most likely need a new circuit board. RVLock has a great customer support center if you call 1 (888) 316-9899, and they can give you a few tips. Make sure there isn't any corrosion near the batteries as this will also affect battery life. But I'd be surprised if a new circuit board didn't solve the problem.

cut wire to the speaker ?
@richard33657 жыл бұрын
Most devices that I've had any experience with, the speaker is a tiny device about the size of a dime, and it doesn't really have any "wires" you can cut (it does have "wires", but they're only about 1/8 inch long and in a position where wire cutters probably won't fit), but it is soldered directly into the circuit board. Still, a soldering iron (with a pencil tip, not those gigantic gun things) would remove it in just a few seconds without damaging anything else.

It was great meeting you and Ann and I hope we meet again in our travels!!! The RTR is getting crowed and more people are coming each day!!! I got some good video with my camcorder but no bird sounds, I guess I turned off the sound by mistake!!! Take care and safe travels!!!

Nice to meet you too. We went back for sunset that day and got some great action. All the birds were in the same field pretty much, what a commotion! :) Left Cibola yesterday and blasted by the Q on I10, looks like lots of rigs so far. We made it over to Saddle Mt. BLM, gorgeous, beautiful views and peaceful. Have fun! Cheers Ray

It is expensive, especially considering I bought a Viper alarm for my truck, with remote start, for less than $200. And it came with two key fobs and a 1 mile range. These are certainly overpriced, especially considering the cheap plastic backing and the single key fob.

Someone has to go to the effort and leave a paper trail ordering the key from RVLock plus try and find us as we move around versus a simple crowbar. Pretty unlikely so didn't mind showing everything to improve the review

Sure that's smart, go to the trouble of contacting RV Lock and leaving a paper trail plus the cost ordering the replacement key just to break in, my advice would be save yourself the trouble, just show up with a crow bar instead. ;) Pop the door in about 5 seconds.

I found out you can kill the beep by holding the 1 key down for a few seconds. Also, I was able to quiet it quite a bit by taping over the speaker. :) - kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6LHdZR6qKiSqck Cheers! Ray

The keys are just for emergency back up, in case the batteries die or the thing malfunctions. They aren't used day to day. We've had the thing for a month now and have to say I love not having to worry about having a key.

Love Your RV , I’m trying to get away from the vulnerability of RV key locks. I like the keypad, but the lock is no more secure than what came stock on my door. Switching for convenience is great, but no value if you are switching for security.
@LoveYourRV7 жыл бұрын
If you're looking to stop real criminals good luck. RVs are so flimsy they can just get in some other way. I heard a lot of them send a skinny dude through a roof vent or skylight or just smash and open one of the emergency exit windows, crawl in the basement storage and punch through a wall. I just make sure to lock the rig with something so when a break in happens I can file my insurance claim and keep kids and relatively honest people out. From what I understand the RVLOCK has many more key combinations than the OEM so much more unlikely for a camper next to you having the same key as your rigs door. Cheers, Ray
