Video Transcript for Feature Breakdown: Camco Cam Lock
Today we're going to review part number CAM44293. This is the Camco Cam Lock. Comes with the straight or offset cams and the two tubular keys and it fits onto a application that is about 5/8 inch thick. Just want to give you a measurement here to show you the thickness of it is about 5/8 of an inch. This will keep your drawer, cabinet, RV storage compartment secure using this key-operated cam lock. Basically, it's ideal for new or replacement installations, comes with the offset cam, and the straight cam and the two tubular keys. You can see the tubular keys fit right into the lock, just like that.
With it mounted like that you can see it just pretty much takes a quarter of a turn. Quarter of a turn to open or close it and basically, the way you would install this has a nut and a washer on it, a large nut and washer that you can completely take off. Slide that into the hole and then put your nut and washer back on to secure it into the cabinet, or whatever you're putting it onto. Then once you get it tightened down and into place, then you can take the nut off the very end and then with that nut off you take the straight cam and put it in. Has flat sides on both sides of the screw there so you just line the cam up with the flat side so you can put it on that way, you can put it on that way if you need to. If you switch it to the other side it would do it just like that.
Then if you need offset, you can basically take this one, as you can see you can put it on that way to gain some offset or to put it the other way, whichever way you need it. And same way you can flip it to the other side. Once you get it in the position you want, then you just take your nut, go ahead and tighten that down. Then you can see with it like this, then when you turn it, with this secured, and you hold this, you can see that it'll operate a quarter of a turn that way, just like that. So there's multiple combinations you can use the cams in there to get you into what situation you would need. That should do it for review on part number CAM44293.
It's the Camco Cam Lock with the straight or offset cam and the 2 tubular keys. .

The folks at etrailer were quick to respond with exacting, helpful answers to my questions about this product prior to my purchase. Great customer service! Thank you. I used the CAM44293 to create a keyed latch on a previously spring-hinged plastic cover on a motorcycle fairing glove box. The spring hinge failed, so the door would be blown open by wind at speed. The original motorcycle part was too expensive to replace, so the barrel cam lock provided a fixed closure at a fraction of the cost once custom applied to the cover. That it included both one straight and one offset cam gave me the flexibility and confidence to be able to adapt it to my custom application.

Great RV cargo door replacements. The 5/8 in or 7/8 inch locks are available for different door/surround thicknesses. Easy install with a screwdriver and socket or wrench.

Great replacement for the traditional compartment locks on RVs and a good price compared to other places. Key is not removable in the unlocked position though, which honestly isn't that big of a deal.

Exactly what I needed. I'll be ordering two more for our other storage doors.
Only slight negative is shipping time was a bit longer than I wanted. But, to be honest, that's probably just because I'm "Amazon Prime" conditioned.

Very pleased with product. Wanted to make sure everyone else did not have access to my RV storage area. Once I found out all other RV owners have the same ole storage key as everyone else... I knew I had to do something .. then I found your web site & the product I was looking for. Great price too. Thanks

Great replacement for old corroded cargo door locks. Two lock tabs included for thicker and slightly thinner door thickness.

It worked well for a few months, then the key wouldn't fit and open the door. I Googled what to do and had to file a tab off the key and rotate the lock to get it to work. Now one key works and one doesn't. Other than that, it was a good lock.

Delivered promptly. Seem to be of good quality. I bought two locks and conveniently both are keyed the same. This is nice for me in that I only have to carry one key for both locks, but I an a little concerned that everyone who has purchased these locks, now has access to my storage compartments.

Nice product. Used this lock in the front basement door of 5th wheel to replace a keyed version. Only drawback is the key can not be removed when the lock is in the unlock position.

My misunderstanding as to what dimension to order - should have ordered 1" locks instead of 7/8". Found the product description confusing. Called and questioned customer service, and still got it wrong. Will be returning tomorrow for exchange.

the first lock we took out of the box, the nut to tighten it into the hole would not, could not thread on and stay tight. So, we had to use two locks for something that should have only required one.

poor quality for a lock. The cams did not fit on the stem. The large nut does not tighten onto the body of the lock. The lock can not be installed

See what our Experts say about this Camco RV Door Locks
- Can Global Link RV Latch Lock Be Re-Keyed to Use Tube KeyMy technical contact at Global Link advised that for their locks like # 295-000021 that you referenced which use a flat key they do not offer a tube-type re-keying kit. We do have tubular key lock replacement parts from Camco, such as # CAM44303 and # CAM44293, but my contact there cautioned against trying to retro-fit one of these to another brand of lock. You would have to dismantle the current locks in order to see the cylinder length you need and he said it would be very tough to...
view full answer... - How to Determine Correct Camco Cam Lock for Storage Door on 2007 Crossroads TrailerIn order to determine which size cam locks you need for your trailer, you will want to note the thickness of the doors on which you are installing them. This will determine the size locks that will work on your storage doors. If you are simply replacing existing locks, you can also measure your current unit to see exactly what you need. The Camco Cam Lock # CAM44303 that you were looking at is 7/8 inches thick. For the 5/8 cam lock, you will use # CAM44293. I have also attached a short...

However many of the locks you order keyed alike will come with a common key. The difference is that Global Link has over 91 different keys they use so there is far more variety and others near you will not have the same key to access your storage compartments. You can also get...
view full answer... - Replacement Tubular Key and Lock for Tool BoxWe don't have any specific replacement keys in that style or number. We do have replacement Cam Locks like # CAM44303 or # CAM44293 to replace your lock for your toolbox. If you order multiple locks of the same part number they will be keyed alike.
view full answer... - How To Determine Which Camco Cam Lock To Install On Storage Shed DoorsWhen installing any of the Camco cam locks, the thickness of the material of the doors you are installing the locks on would determine which lock you need. I have attached a product review video you can check out. At about the 1 minute mark it is explained how to install the lock. If you need a 5/8 inch lock you would order part # CAM44293. For 7/8 inch you want part # CAM44353, and for a 1-1/8 inch you can order part # CAM44363. Each of these cam locks come with 2 keys.
view full answer... - Does the Multi-Purpose Access Door Come with a LockThe Multi-Purpose Access Door part # SE98VR does not have a lock nor is it offered with one available. That said, I'm sure you could modify and add a lock such as the Camco Cam Lock part # CAM44293 for security. I will be honest with you though, it's a plastic door so if anyone really wanted to get what was inside it would not be very difficult.
view full answer... - What is the Hole Spacing on the Camco Cam Lock CAM44293I went out to the warehouse and pulled a Camco Cam Lock # CAM44293 to measure it for you. The longer offset piece measures 1-5/16 inches from the center of one hole to the center of the other hole. The shorter straight piece measures a hair over 1 inch center to center.

- Availability of Camlocks for Furnace in Pop UpSounds like you are looking for the part # CAM09213. These are the cam locks that are often found on water heaters and furnaces.

That does not necessarily mean someone at the same camp ground will have the same key as you. For your compartment doors to be keyed alike and yet not be the same key everyone else has, I recommend a replacement cam lock by Global Link part # 295-000003. Global Link has over 91 different keys they use so there is far more variety and others near...
