Just installed the Carmtek 10 and it works great! Had a little issue with the factory installed handle it was off by 3/16" the would not allow the screws for the plate to align. Contacted Carmtek and they offered up the solution to trim the door enough to allow it to fit or I could send it back for a refund. I decided that making the adjustments would work. Trimmed out the bottom of the existing cut out and it fit and seals as it should. Thank you for the review!

We have the 8 digit curved Carmtek lock and so far has worked well for us..Ours unfortunately doesn't have the receiver 'on/off' switch so it does go thru batteries quite quickly. As such on our last expedition we had to use the keys to secure the RV, and, well, we could only get the key to work in the deadbolt cylinder not the door handle cylinder..Weird, but, it did secure the RV which is the main thing.Ours is also all metal, which I like. However, it IS heavy and installation is probably best/easiest as a 2 person operation(even tho I did install it by myself, it was a bit of a struggle)...I am pleased with it even with those shortfalls so I am sure this model will do nicely too..

John, I would contact Carmtek about the handle cylinder, its got a lifetime warranty. If you have an issue, let me know, I will speak to the owner to get a new one shipped out to you. I would also suggest putting some Boeshield T9 in the key hole, that helps lubricate and protect the internals. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hYrLh36diplmors

High-quality, well-made, and since this is a 5th wheel 'glamper', how could I not get the Carmtek 10-key with the fobs?? 😉 Wife loves it.

I just finished installing the Carmtek 10-digit entry door lock on my 2024 Alliance Paradigm 340RL fifth wheel. My biggest problem is "old eyes." I am 75 years old, and my ability to see fine detail is long past. Regardless, I had no trouble with the installation. I finally used some scotch tape to hold the door latch lever in the 12 o'clock position and the lock arm lever in the 6 o'clock position. Made a real difference. PS -- I installed RVLock v4 locks on my two previous towables, and both locks worked just fine. I agree with you, however, the Carmtek lock has a stout, rectangular frame. I like that much better than the curved RVLock design. Lou from Georgia.

I really enjoyed testing the Latch IT versus the RV Lock on my channel and overall very happy with the Latch It product. The RV lock was decent, its biggest pro is that you can order all the locks keyed the same, not just several like Latch It and Carmtek - so if you have a motor home with 10 locked bays and doors, you can get them all keyed & key fobbed alike - which would be super convenient. As far as the two features on the Carmtek that are not on the Latch It -- the "low" volume for the buttons and the interior handle lock lever. The second volume option is not something that would sway my purchase one way or the other - both RV Lock and Latch IT have the option to turn off the beeping. The interior handle lock - major pro because you can essentially lock yourself in at night and even if someone knew the code they couldn't get through the handle lock. However, as a parent this is a MAJOR con and the reason I would NOT want the Carmtek - if little kids could lock the doors from the inside and the keypad does not actuate the handle lever that could be a major problem. Thats the benefit of a free market and different options - folks with no kids would be better served with the Carmtek's extra interior lock - others would not. Thanks for showing additional options than the major brands that have invested heavily into marketing Ross!

The interior handle lock latch can actually be removed. It’s a simple snap ring holding the orange lever in place…that could be removed if you didn’t want the handle to be locked from the inside. Something I unfortunately thought about after the video was published.

Does this keyless door lock control both the handle and deadbolt locks?

The fob only controls the deadbolt. To lock or unlock the handle will require a key. I’ve hidden a key somewhere nobody can find it on the outside of my rv just in case. You can also Keep an extra key in your truck. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you for the nice comment.

Ross I like the key fob but I assume you can create your own pass code to open the door without the key fob. Right? Well, my ‘22 ordered Jayco Jayfeather Micro 199 mbs doesn’t arrive until early July. I don’t know if that lock is compatible with my new RV yet until I can get my hands on it, so I guess I won’t get the discount but it still looks like an excellent lock. And that was one of my early mods I was planning to do anyways. So I hope that it will be compatible. Larry

Hey Edward, I have not used the remote at all... but with the transmitter turned off while locking and unlocking every day to make videos, standard alkaline batteries have lasted a year. To use the remote, you'll have to turn on the transmitter and I've heard that will eat through batteries. The nice thing about this lock is it is just a switch on the inside, so its easy to turn on and off as you need it. I havent switch to rechargeables yet. I did that many years ago and wasn't impressed, but have to assume they have gotten better?

We had a 2010 Bullet and the door lock had 2 different keys, one for the handle and a different key for the deadbolt. The salesman said that if someone was inside the RV and had the deadbolt locked that he could not get in, so I took that to mean the handle lock was keyed in a way that salesmen who have a master key can get into all campers as long as the deadbolt is not locked. The Carmtek lock has an M stamped on the lock, does this mean that dealers that have a master key, can still get into my camper? The camper I have now has one key that fits both locks but only the handle has a M stamped on it so would the master key fit both locks also?

the "M" either stands for maintenance or master, depending who you talk to. These come with new keys, I have not checked to see if my old key would work on either lock but I doubt it because they come with new keys. If it does unlock this new lock, Ill let you know. Otherwise I am 99% sure it wont. Ill check tonight.

they are not CH751 keys or keys that will work in a factory lock at all. Additionally, they key their locks differently as they have codes laser engraved into the key if you need back ups. I'm not really sure what you are implying, but as I am reading it, it sounds like you are saying the keys supplied with the RV will work in this lock. That is not the case, and just like all quality locks, deadbolts, padlocks, etc.. they are keyed differently depending on the production run and distribution. Do you have a question?

no worries my friend, but they are completely different locks and keys from factory assemblies. Factory lock keys will not work in aftermarket locks, and vice versa. If someone really wants in an RV, they dont need a key, to be honest. But the remote control and keypad are nice to have.

Hum looks like mine will likely take this lock. Looks good for key spots size and screw pattern. Great PSA for this video. I saw a couple of your videos. I am new getting back into 5th wheels. My last one was in like 1988. humble 22 foot. Now I got a 32 foot. YIKES i can hardly jackknife it into my driveway! Thanks Army Engineers to teach me how to tow. I like the older ones. I am 56. My first 5th was a 1985. I felt safe getting a Keystone 2008. I restored it. Thank you Army Aviation repair. Anyhow your videos got me back in the flow of things.
