Video Transcript for Review of The RV Fuel Vault RV Access Doors - Small Locking Door QTY 1 - FV34FR

Hi everybody. Andy here with etrailer. Let's take a quick look at the RV Fuel Vault small locking door. Now you're gonna be able to get this as just one door, as you see here on my table, or you can get it as a set of two or a set of three. So whichever quantity is going to work the best for you, just take the appropriate part number that you see there on your screen, pop it in the search field of our website. That will take you to that quantity that you want and you can add that to your order.

So this small locking door is really going to give you an added layer of security for the fuel fill on compatible motor homes. And this is designed for those who want to make it harder for someone to siphon fuel, contaminate the tank, vandalize the fill area, or otherwise gain unauthorized access. Now for fitment, this door is going to fit your Ford F550 and F600 motor home applications. And also this will fit your Dodge Ram 5500 motor home application. So to see the complete listing of motor home manufacturers that are associated with those chassis that you see there on your screen that this is gonna work with, do take a look at this product page.

There we inchesre quite a few listings there, so I couldn't fit them all on the graphic. But since there are quite a few different motor home configurations within those chassis and brands, confirming the specific motor home application is gonna be an important consideration before picking this up. So do make sure to take a look at this product page. So the main advantage that this is going to give you is that it's going to secure the fuel fill behind a keyed tamper-resistant locking door. And this is going to come with the hardware that you need.

It's gonna come with two keys. And if you get like two doors, you're gonna get four keys. If you get three doors, you're gonna get six keys if my math is right. So you're gonna get two keys per door and also the hardware that you need for each door too, again, if you get more than one door. So you're gonna get everything that you need basically to install this and use it as it's been designed.

So this is really designed for a relatively easy install. And so when you have this installed, you're not gonna have to worry about someone trying to remove Phillips head screws. These are torque security screws. So that's just another extra layer of security that you have here. So someone will be less likely to try to tamper with this or try to remove this. Now the door itself is made from thick high-impact reinforced fiber-filled polymer composite and the material itself measures about 3/16 of an inch thick. I mean, when I first saw this, and even when you lift it or feel it, at first you think it might be metal just because it's very durable. The word that comes immediately to mind is robust, really, really strong, really rugged, but it is going to be this composite, this polymer composite material. And because it's a polymer rather than metal, this is not going to pit, it's not going to rust, it's not gonna corrode. And the material is also stated to be chemically inert to diesel fuel, gasoline, depth, and road salts, which is gonna be useful considering where the door is installed and what it may be exposed to. This does have a temperature rating from -40 degrees to 220 degrees Fahrenheit. This looks great. Its appearance is gonna be another part of this design. So rather than looking like an improvised security add-on, this black rectangular door is intended to give your fuel fill area a clean factory finish appearance and it's got that open back design. So the existing fuel fill is gonna remain accessible when the door is unlocked and open. So I'm gonna take one of the keys here. Again, all the keys that you receive will be keyed alike. It's gonna be very easy to use this. So this is simple turn locks it. Then another turn is going to unlock it, show you that lock in action there. Now I wanted to give you some measurements here. So let me find my ruler. The overall height that we're looking at here is going to be right at about 6 7/8 inches tall and what I'm calling the width, again overall, about seven and a quarter inches wide. Another important benefit that this has is the insulation. It's a bolt on setup. It doesn't require cutting or drilling into your motor home or making modifications to your fuel tank. The listed installation time from the manufacturer is only about eight to 15 minutes. So it's gonna be relatively straightforward security upgrade while leaving the existing body work and tank virtually unchanged. So you're gonna get everything that you see here, the hardware, the torque screws, keys. You're also going to get the bit here to help you with the installation of the screws and a key chain fob here, which I believe that's supposed to be a bottle opener too. So it's a nice little cool touch. So everything that you see here, again, I think it's gonna be a pretty straightforward, easy installation, easy security upgrade really to your fuel setup. So this is going to give you controlled key access to your fuel fill. It's gonna add tamper-resistant mounting hardware and it doesn't require permanent modifications to your coach. It uses a corrosion-resistant material that's gonna be able to handle life on the road. And so if this is something that you're looking for, it meets the specifications that you're looking for, this is really gonna be a great option for you to consider. Again, I'm gonna list the different quantities that we have of this small door. But I think that's gonna wrap up our look today. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.
