Features to know about

Rock-Solid Security for Your Cargo: Cam-Action Double-Action Handle

If you're hauling heavy loads with large trailers or trucks, you need a lock that won't budge. This cam-action latch's double-action handle ensures a secure and straightforward latching process, while the unique design protects your cargo from in-transit jarring. The Black vinyl grip makes it comfortable and easy on the hands, even on long hauls.

Protect Your Trailer Door from Wear: Split Bushings to the Rescue

Moving parts shouldn't give you a headache. This kit includes split bushings that help prevent friction and rattling, reducing wear on your trailer's components. It's designed to extend the life of your latch system, keeping everything running smoothly for miles on end.

Customization Made Easy: Universal Application with Shimming Capability

Does your trailer door need a little flexibility? This kit's universal nature allows you to use shims to align everything perfectly, whether you’re working with doors made of thicker tube steel or have specific project needs. This allows for a tight connection, giving you peace of mind on bumpy roads.

Keep It Locked and Loaded: Compatibility with Padlocks

Sometimes a simple lock can make all the difference. Although the kit doesn't include a lock, it can be locked securely with any standard padlock. This makes it adaptable to your needs or security preferences, without the added cost of proprietary locking systems.

Heavy-Duty and Built to Last: Zinc-Plated Steel Construction

Corrosion and durability are common concerns for any trailer-mounted hardware. The zinc-plated steel construction of this latch is built to withstand the elements and the wear-and-tear of daily use, ensuring that your investment stands the test of time. You can rely on it, even if conditions aren't ideal.

Simplify Your Installation Process: Complete Kit Minus the Pipe

Installing new hardware can be daunting, but the straightforward bolt-on design of this kit eases the process. While the 1-5/16” standard pipe and some additional hardware aren’t included, fitting your trailer door securely is just a couple of simple steps away with this comprehensive kit.

  • Does Cam Action Latch Kit PLR658-002 Come with Washers/Spacers
    The spacers/washers that are in the review video for the Cam-Action Lockable Door Latch Kit for Large Enclosed Trailers # PLR658-002 actually aren't included in the kit anymore so what you have now isn't missing anything. This type of latch does allow the bar to slide a bit up and down in the mounts so there is no need for anything to prevent that.

  • How Does the Pipe Attach to the Cam Lock Assembly on Polar 658-002?
    According to the manufacturer the pipe is the 1 inch schedule 40 pipe which means the inner diameter is 1 inch and the outer diameter is 1-5/16" so the attached video and the video are correct. I have also attached a photo from the manufacturer to show you the locations of the Anti-Rack Ring you requested. They will be located just under the top bearing bracket and just above the bottom bearing bracket. You will weld these rings to the pipe as well as the cams at each end and the handle....

  • Cam Style Trailer Door Latch Recommendation For Limited Clearance Area for Brackets
    The big difference between the Cam Door Latch # PLR458-018 and the # PLR658-002 is the robustness of the pipe mount on the handle side. The # PLR658-002 is more for heavy duty applications and comes with bushings for the pipe to mount in. This requires a 1-5/16 inch diameter pipe and the other requires 3/4 inch diameter. That said, since you said you only have a space of 2-7/16 inches for the bottom bracket to fit you'd actually want the part # PLR258-002 instead as it has a smaller sized...

  • Tips for Installing Cam-Action Lockable Door Latch Kit for Large Enclosed Trailers # PLR658-002
    Mock up the install of the # PLR658-002 and it'll become obvious which way to orientate the system. Trying to match the LH and the RH won't be as helpful as mocking everything up and test fitting it before installing it. Basically you'll weld the pipe to the handle and the keepers like you mentioned and then bolt on everything else to the door. There aren't install instructions available for this.

  • Can Shims be Used to Install Cam-Action Lockable Door Latch Kit so it Sits Flush
    The great thing about the Cam-Action Lockable Door Latch Kit # PLR658-002 is that since it's a universal application you can definitely use shims for the cams so that everything is lined up correctly. When it comes to the strength of these, they are designed for large enclosed trailers which means they will definitely be up to the task of holding your doors in place, but they aren't really rated for a specific weight so I'm not sure how they would hold up to a horse leaning up against...

  • Height of Upper and Lower Cam Brackets of Polar Cam Action Door Latch Kit # PLR658-002
