Randy: Hey guys. Randy here at etrailer.com. Today we're taking a look at a new product from Torque Lift. It's the Fortress gas lot. This is going to give us an excellent solution that we really haven't had in the past. This allows us to lock two propane tanks down to the front of our camper or RV, and prevent them from being removed.
Now, not only does it secure our tanks as you can see, but also our regulator, and also our hoses. So we're not going to have to worry about all of those pieces disappearing causing us a very expensive replacement. Whether you've got the half inch, or three eighths inch threaded rod, we're going to have a solution for you. It's going to have a heavy powder coat finish on it, and it is lightweight. It's made out of military grade aluminum.
So we're not going to really have to worry about any corrosion, or any issues like that. Also, going to have our lock right here. Nice heavy duty lock. Pull that off and see we've got our cap open there.That'll allow us to slide our key in there, lock and unlock that, and then back this off if we want to get our tanks off to take them and have them filled or whatever we might need to do. Now to install our Fortress lock, we'll need to remove the old style wing nut.
Just going to loosen that up and set it aside. Then we can bring our Fortress lock right down and over. I'm going to position this tab rearward. Since our regulator is right here, I want to have enough room for my lock. Now we'll take that stainless washer.
We want to place that down on. Then we can get that threaded down and on. Now, we're going attention this just like we would our normal keeper here. We just need to ensure either this tab or this tab lines up with the tab on that lower section, so we can get our lock through.So right there looks good. Then we can place the lock through. We have the option of placing it either way we want. I do recommend though that we put this rubber spacer on the top side. We can put our lock on this way. But as that goes down the road, that'll kind of keep it from rattling. We won't hear that metal noise as it bounces up and down. We just put our cap on. But at that point, everything's going to be nice and secure and we won't have to worry about anybody getting away with our tanks. That's going to complete our look at the Fortress gas lock from Torque Lift.

Lock down your propane tanks to keep them safe and secure on your Airstream trailer. This specially designed lock attaches to the 1/2" threaded rod that is positioned in the middle of your dual propane tank setup.Great customer service and knowledgeable on the products they sell.
Excellent design! Easy installation on 2019 Airstream Globetrotter 27FBT. Now my LPG tanks are secure.
I ordered 4 Mighty Cords and a TorkLift gas bottle lock for my Airstream. The cords were nice and recommended by the AS forum. I rodered the wrong TorkLift for my AS. I needed the 1/2" lock assembly but ordered the 3/8" by mistake. etrailer responded and sent me the correct TorkLift and a return merchandise mailing label! Thanks! Nice people to do business with. Here is the TorkLift installed on my AS.
Works great! Ive owned it one year now and no corrosion issues. As long as somebody can't undo the gas rod from the bottom, then the lock is secure against theft. It would be very cool if this product had a model that used a 4-digit combo lock instead of a key (I often misplace my key, but started keeping the key inside the Airstream
Fit perfectly bit lock has to be installed lock side down for Airstream tank cover to close.

It works great. Still the only problem is that the lock has to be turned upside down for the lid to close on propane tanks. Not a big problem but should be corrected by new generation of the lock.
Installed the lock today. It works as advertised and is pretty much the only LP tank lock that works well on an Airstream trailer. The instructions show installation with the barrel of the keylock in an upwards position, however, my Airstream trailer has large 40 gallon tanks and the cover brace is raised rather than dipped. The keylock barrel must be installed in the downward position or it won't fit beneath the plastic top cover. This makes is slightly awkward to insert the key, but it also makes it nearly impossible to drill the locking mechanism out. The lock is easy to install and easy to remove when needed.
without a doubt a wise investment. Not only is the connection simple and easy (never getting bayonet tolerances making for a touch connection to twist in place - or untwist), but the hose itself is the most durable I have used.
This is the perfect accessory for our new Airstream! Will keep the propane thieves at bay! Thanks etrailer!!
Well made product overall. For what you pay you would expect a beefier lock. Best option out there.
Great product. Simple to use and well constructed. Prompt shipping and delivery by Etrailer. Thanks.
Peace of mind
Good product and good service
Very easy to use and perfect for what it is intended for. Came earlier than expected and good quality. Just make sure you measure correctly not like me, and order the correct size. etrailer customer service was great on helping me return the wrong size and ordering the right one.
Thanks
Might be good on some trailers but it did not work on my Grand Design. See photo. Could not get it pushed down far enough to put padlock on before the end potecting the nuts jamed against the upright threaded stock.
Timely delivery. Easy installation.
One note: Raising the regulator caused interference with slam latch. Had to bend bracket as shown in photo. Otherwise good product.
I like knowing my tanks are locked-down. Access to the top of my tanks is not adequate for locking to be easy, but I can manage with this setup.
The lock was easy to install and secures the dual propane tanks nicely.
Very happy with this lock for my propane tanks. Very durable and attractive
A good product took some work to install, had to figure out where to put the regulator bracket.
This lock is incredibly easy to install. It keeps the tanks secure, and, of course, locks them tightly in place. The only thing that surprised me is that this appears to be a different design than pictured. The handles are bent upward as in the Airstream lock picture....even though the packaging says it's the TLA7702, not the Airstream variety. Regardless, this thing looks, feels, and works great!
I had been looking for a quality propane tank locks fan this one is exactly as described. The lock is robust and allows you to lock two propane tanks and a regulator with the lock and built in key.
Do you have a question about this Propane Accessory?

Its been a year and the lock has performed just fine. It is kept out of the elements under the propane tank cover, but I do live by the beach and there is no evidence of corrosion from the salty air. Good product!
