What's up, everybody It's AJ with etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna be checking out this Redline L-shaped Locking Door Handle. So we put this on our HYK camper. We just turn that, open it, and that can replace an old latch that maybe wore out or broke off on you. So let's check it out. Now there are a few things to look at when you are getting a new handle.
Look at the lock receiver on the other or side. That's what we're looking at right now. And we made sure the measurements we're right, so it's gonna be a 5/16 squared portion. And then the shank's length is gonna be about two and a half inches long. So that's gonna be long enough to fit into this square and be able to turn it to disengage or engage the lock.
Look at the handle. Once of the nice things is it's got a built in lock core there, so you can lock it up. You get two keys with it. So when you can go unlock it and turn it all the way around, and now nobody can mess with this latch when you're not around. The whole handle's gonna be made out of aluminum.
So you don't have to worry about any rusting and corroding when it stays out in any elements. Something else to note is that it's gonna have one and a half inch spacing of the holes. So luckily, that lined up with the handle we already had, so we didn't have to make any new holes in our trailer. One thing I will say though, is it does not come with its own hardware. So you'll have to supply that yourself.
Overall, it works pretty good as a handle. It's a good replacement part. It was nice to be able to replace it pretty quickly with just the two screws. And now it can lock up just like it did before. Well, I think that does it. The thanks for hanging out. I hope this helped..
I purchased a used RV, it was delivered without a key. I called Gander Mountain/ Camping World and they told me they could not find the key. They told me to call a lock smith. I called the lock smith and they said they do not replace everything locks. The lock smith told me to go to Gander mountain to have lock replaced. I found a similar lock on etrailer and my neighbor put it on for me. He had to shave the lock to get it to fit. I gave it 4 stars because it had to be shaved down with a machine that I did not have. The lock works and I am extremely happy. I would have been even happier if Gander Mountain would have fixed the RV lock before they sold it and delivered the trailer to me. I am just glad the lock is fixed .
The product was good quality. I gave 4 stars because the first latch and keys I received did not match so I couldn’t work the lock. But to their credit when I wrote and told them and they sent me another latch and keys that matched.
Latch and lock arrived in quick order and was exactly what we needed. So glad to do business with etrailer instead of amzn!
working good used it on log loader door
Ordered this for '87 Casita travel trailer. The post was just a bit too wide to go into the original latch. A minute on the grinder and its been great ever since.
I put them on a 2008 chevy c4500 shuttle bus wheel chair doors. I wish I had gotten both keyed the same but I don't remember seeing the option. The mount holds where a little off but it worked and I wish it had came with gaskets. They seem like quality parts.
I made the install LQQK like a pro did it.
My experience ordering from etrailer was great however, the handle did not fit in my older trailer and I'm unable to return it as I opened it. Also, I was a bit diassapointed that it did not come with any screws.

Don - 12/18/2019Priced right, nice quality locking handle. Shipping price was awesome and communication from etrailer was first class. Ever need trailer stuff, first and only place to go.
The lock fit perfectly & works well.
Brian - 06/21/2021Great door handles. Still look like new. My only disappointment is that the 2 that I bought are not keyed the same.
It works great! Just had to cut it to size and drill new holes for the pins, but it works. It also is opposite functioning from what I had before, but I'm happy to have a functioning handle again ^_^ Thank you!
A little modification was needed to fit perfectly, it was simply cut off an 1/8 on the square section to allow the unit to sit completely.
Great product, as seen in the pictures. Works well and the customer is happy. This went on a 1992 seagrave pump fire unit.
Thanks for the great pricing and quick shipping.
Just the right handle for replacement. Thanks!
A year later still works great!
