Features to know about

Effortless Securement and Stability: Cam-Action Latch System

If you're constantly worried about the security of your trailer's cargo, the cam-action latch system on this door latch is the solution. Designed to prevent accidental openings even on the bumpiest of drives, this system is essential for maintaining peace of mind. The double-action handle ensures your cargo remains secure while offering a smooth operation that's as simple as flipping the handle keeper and rotating the cams to either engage or release.

Ultimate Theft Protection: Non-Removable Pins

For those concerned about theft or tampering, these non-removable pins make your trailer's door latch unyieldingly secure. Even the most determined intruder will find it nearly impossible to meddle with your setup, keeping your valuable cargo right where it belongs until you're ready to access it.

Reliable Durability Against Elements: Zinc Plated Steel Construction

Rust and corrosion are no match for this latch. Its zinc-plated steel body is built to withstand the harshest elements, ensuring a long-lasting and robust surface for your side door or fold-down gate applications. Perfect for those who frequently travel through varying weather conditions and want equipment that can keep up.

Versatile Configuration: Reversible Design for Any Setup

Got a unique door configuration or a non-standard setup? The reversible design allows this latch to be seamlessly used on either left-hand or right-hand doors. Whether you're tweaking your utility trailer or adjusting a custom-built rig, this latch adapts to your needs without hassle.

Comfortable and Easy Handling: Black Vinyl Handle

All the mechanics in the world won't mean anything if operating the latch isn't comfortable. The black vinyl handle provides not only a slip-resistant grip but a cushioned hold that's easy on the hands—even if you're operating in cold weather or after long hours on the road.

Efficient Installation and Fit: Precise Mounting Specifications

Installing a door latch has never been easier with clear, precise specs. With a handle length of 12-1/2", mounting holes on the hasp spaced at 4" center to center, and hinges spaced at 3-1/4", it's a perfect fit for most standard set-ups. Just ensure you have the necessary 3/4" plumbers pipe and get ready to enjoy a hassle-free installation.

  • Recommended Cleaner for Removing Slick Armour-All Like Coating on RV Steps
    Hey Kevin. Have you tried using a degreaser on it? Something like the All Purpose Cleaner and Degreaser item # BE74VR and a power washer would be my recommendation to get that coating off. You may try reaching out to the dealer and finding out exactly what they put on your trailer so you can see how long it lasts and possibly what it'll take to remove it. If you have any additional questions, go ahead and click on the box below that says Reply to Jerred H and I'll be happy to answer them.

  • Replacement Latch for Circle J Horse Trailer
    If you want an entire replacement latch assembly you could use the # 305736 you were looking at. I can't quite tell from the picture but it looks like that is the old pipe and what you really need is a handle to attach. The # 158-100 could be welded onto the existing pipe to replace your handle. If you want to replace the hasp as well then you could get the # PLR3057 instead.

  • Replacement Cam Door Latch Handle for 2005 Jamco Horse Trailer
    I looked at many photos of 2005 Jamco horse trailers to see the type of door handles it has and it appears you could have the popular cam type rear door lock like # 3057-55 or a side door lock like # PLR3057. We do offer replacement handles for these locks and I linked our page that shows all of them, including parts # PLR158-100-SS, # 158-100 and # PLR158-100-A which all measure 14 x 1-1/4-inches. If these are not the type of item you need please send us a photo or two to help us get...

  • Replacement Latches for 2002 Platinum LQ Horse Trailer
    We may have a solution for you though we do not have parts specific to trailers so you would need to find something compatible with your current latches. The Cam-Action Lockable Door Latch Kit w/ Wide Hasp # PLR258-002 may be an option, as could side door lock # PLR3057. I will link our selection of available door hardware for you to take a look at. If you can get back to me with a photo of what you need I may also be able to help you that way.

  • How To Choose the Correct Length Bar for the Cam-Action Lockable Door Latch
    In regards to Cam-Action Lockable Door Latches like part # 305736, the longer bar you have for the cam lock, the more support it will offer. If you have a heavy, tall door then you'd want to consider looking into a longer bar whereas if you have a smaller, lighter door then you can use a shorter bar. That said, I don't have any formula to use for this, it's up to the installer's discretion. If you need one longer than 36" then you can get part # PLR3057 and choose your own bar size.

  • Side-Door Bar Lock Assembly With Offset Handle Availability
    For an offset handle you will want to use the Cam-Action Lockable Door Latch Kit # PLR3057 that you can use to attach to a length of schedule 40 3/4" pipe. You will be able to have the hinges and latch welded in place where you need to ensure that the handle is where you want it.

  • Are The Keeper Holes Round Or Square For The Polar Cam-Action Lockable Door Latch # PLR3057
    I dug through the inventory we have of the Cam-Action Lockable Door Latch for Fold Down Trailer Gate or Side Door # PLR3057 and found that the picture is correct and that the video must've been shot with an older version of this kit when the manufacturer used square holes in the hinges.

  • Replacement Cam Door Latch Assembly For a 2016 Grand Design Momentum Toy Hauler
    I do see your 2016 Grand Design Momentum uses latches like the Global Link # 295-000024. As we do not have custom lock assemblies like those you are needing you can either get the 55" Kit # 3057-55 you found and have the handles removed and welded on in the correct place or you can use the Kit # PLR3057 to create your own with a section of 3/4" pipe. The rubber spacers are not going to be something we carry and you can either find some rubber at a local craft store which will work or...

  • Does the Economy Side Door Lock Part # PLR3057 Have a Hardware Kit
    They do not make a specific hardware kit for the Economy Side Door Lock part # PLR3057. Instead you will want to go to your local hardware store and choose the components that best suit your needs.
