Video Transcript for Polar Hardware Enclosed Trailer Parts - Doors - PLR658-002 Review
Today we're going to be taking a look at the Polar hardware heavy duty anti-rack lock kit for enclosed trailers. This is a two point truck or trailer anti-rack system. It's a really nice durable design. It's made from galvanized steel. The anti-rack lock kit includes two large brackets, that's these brackets right here. These are going to feature the nylon bearings.
The mount holes on these side to side are separated on center by three inches. Then up and down those are separated on center by two and seven eighths of an inch. The unit's also going to come with two anti-rack rings. Those will get welded to the pipe at the bottom and at the top of the large brackets. It's going to come with one center bracket, that also includes a nylon bearing. Mount holes on that bracket are separated on center by three inches as well.
It's going to come with your keepers. Your upper and lower keepers, nice strong forged steel construction there. The mount holes on these they're going to be separated on center by four and three sixteenths of an inch. The unit's also going to include the cams go into the end of the bar. That's what engages and disengages from the keepers.
It's going to come with your handle. This handle has a nice grip design on it. This would get welded to the pipe, goes right here in the hasp that's included as well. That rotates down and then you can lock that. The diameter of that hole for a padlock is a half inch.
The handle measures about 14 and a half inches long. The hasp is included, mount hole lower and mount hole higher. Those are separated on center by about three and thirteen sixteenths of an inch. This is a bolt on application. Mounting hardware's not included. That will need to be provided separately. Some of the holes on this system has a diameter of 13 thirty seconds of an inch, that would accept three eighth inch diameter hardware. And others have a diameter of five sixteenths of an inch. It's going to use a one inch schedule 40 pipe, which is not included. The top and bottom cams can be reversed for right or left hand locks. Again it is constructed of a nice strong durable galvanized steel construction. That's going to do it for today's look at the Polar heavy duty anti-rack lock kit for enclosed trailers.

The parts were perfect replacements for my 53' dry van trailer and are still working like new a year later. I was also very pleased with the price and especially the video instructions for all the parts that are contained. 894442

Great product, just wished it came with instructions. No instructions where ever received, noting on the original manufactures website. So you guess, tack weld, fit into place, and check operation. Took more time than needed due to lack of instructions. other than the instructions, This product is extreme heavy duty, and will last a lifetime of a trailer. The galvanizing is thick so corrosion is not something that will be an issue during its lifetime. For my application I preloaded the welded assemblies with a door seal. Where the compression was 1/2 total thickness around the whole door. Works great and due to the length of Turning Arm it is a breeze for even the weakest person. Another option I would like with this product is an Un-Coated version so it could be painted easier. With my application, I painted over the Galvanizing with the knowledge that the paint will chip off. But hey, a can of Rust-oleum is cheap and application is easy. Note: these latches only work from the outside of the trailer. If you need to active, deactivate this latch from inside, then this one is not for you application. 784054

Ask the Experts about this Polar Hardware Trailer Door Latch
- Cam Style Trailer Door Latch Recommendation For Limited Clearance Area for BracketsThe 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...
view full answer... - Height of Upper and Lower Cam Brackets of Polar Cam Action Door Latch Kit # PLR658-002The height of the Polar Cam Action Door Latch Kit # PLR658-002 brackets you referenced is 2 inches so you'd need 2 inches basically above and below the door for the brackets to fit.
view full answer... - 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....

- Tips for Installing Cam-Action Lockable Door Latch Kit for Large Enclosed Trailers # PLR658-002Mock 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.
view full answer... - Can Shims be Used to Install Cam-Action Lockable Door Latch Kit so it Sits FlushThe 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...
