Replacement Latch For Living Quarters Horse Trailer Door

Updated 10/11/2021 | Published 10/08/2021

Question:

We have a broken latch on a living quarters horse trailer camper door. The dimension of the cutout is 4 15/16inch wide x 4 7/8inch tall. Do you have a latch that will fit without increasing the cut out? Ill add pictures of the current latch. Would like something comparable. Thanks!

The Bauer Products Motorhome Door Lock, # BA64FR fits doors that are 1-1/4" to 1-1/2" thick and requires a cutout dimensions of at least 5-1/4" wide x 4-1/2" tall. This in no way requires a close tolerance fitment to function, so making highly precise cuts is not needed. If your cutout is 4-15/16" wide x 4-7/8" tall you can enlarge it for fitment. It appears you simply need to make your cutout wider by about 3/8".
