I chose this Trailer Surge Brake Coupler Lock because of its ease of use. The screw on/off function makes installation and removal easy. I also purchased a Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock from e-trailer and had the locks keyed alike.



by:

It locked up in the tumblers and broke the key off in it while I was trying to get it unlocked...had to take a cutting wheel and cut the end off of it so I could use my trailer that day...I also do spray wd40 in all my trailer locks..maybe I got one that way made on a Monday or a friday...



by:

Great service and price.

Lock is
for my Demco coupler. Works great.



by:

Have not got a chance to try the product yet. But I could not be more impressed with etrailer. Their shipping was prompt and communication was continuous. Thank you



by:

Perfect for the Demco EzLatch on my utility trailer. Very easy to use and provides the security for my trailer that I sought.

Works very well, and as intended. Adds a sense of real security & safety.

GREAT!



by:

I was sent a follow up email asking how I liked the lock, and I have to say that I liked it enough to buy it a second time after I LOST THE KEYS!!! Because losing keys in my job!!! But yes it is a great lock for my trailer, because it has an odd coupler that a pin goes completely through it and you can’t use a standard padlock or coupler lock. The coupler locks sold at local stores were not long enough to go through the coupler, so I has to search the internet and I found this at trailer.com and it works! I would definitely recommend this lock if you have this style of coupler.



by:

Good value since the coupler lock works exactly as intended. Best part - even tho outside year around in Seattle weather, no corrosion since chrome plating more than adequate. Works on both electric and surge brake couplers with thru-body locks requiring extra length (span).



by:

Perfect for coupler security



by:

It fit perfectly on my boat trailer act uator.



by:

Prompt service, easy and reliable tracking, and very fair pricing. All this combined with a huge selection makes it a very pleasant shopping experience



by:

It was exactly what I wanted (and needed) and works as well as the day I bought it. I would recommend it.



by:

Too many turns and longer than expected.



by:

Great Product! We ordered 6 of these for our fleet of trailers. Very convenient with all the same key. Also purchased the matching coupler locks.
We are very happy with both the products AND customer service at etrailer. They are our first and only call for trailer supplies.



by:

Just what I needed.



by:

Easy to use and fits my shorelander tra iler.



by:

These seem to be made well. Yet to be seen how they hold up over time. Having several trailers, the keyed alike feature was important to me and I was able to order the lengths I needed for the various coupler types. I saw some reviews indicating that the operation of these was slow or tedious. I found that insert the key, hold the key and spin the black end was simple and quick.

These are working well about a year later. Happy with them



by:

This works well and is good quality. I would recommend this product.



by:

Great locks working well. Like the idea that they are keyed alike!



by:

Does the job but not sure it could hold up to a hammer.



by:

Works very well !



by:

I ordered this lock and an etrailer branded coupler lock as etrailer’s website says it can be keyed alike to any other etrailer branded lock. I required them to be keyed alike. I received two locks that were keyed differently. There were extra lock cores in the box like someone was going to change them out, but shipped them without doing so. I followed up with customer service to inquire as to why and was told that these locks can only be keyed alike to the same type of lock, not other locks. I was then told they would send the correct replacement lock. Then was told that was not possible. I requested to return my order for a refund as the website was very unclear as to what locks could be keyed alike. I received a refund for less than the cost of one of the locks. Worst experience with etrailer ever. I won’t be buying from them again.



by:

As described, perfect fit and looks good. Quick ship as well. Thank you etrailer.com!!



by:

Takes to long to un screw and come apart. Only used it a couple of times.



by:

Fast delivery!

  • Comparing Demco Channel Tongue Trailer Couplers # DM16080-95 & # DM15931-95
    The only difference in the Demco Channel Tongue Trailer Couplers # DM16080-95 and # DM15931-95 is going to be the bolt pattern. One will have the 5-Bolt hole pattern and the other is going to have 4-Bolt holes. I have included images below showing the measurements for each of these bolt patterns to compare with what you have on your trailer. The etrailer Surge Brake Coupler Lock # e98888 will allow you to secure the coupler while attached to your vehicle. We also have a Pin # 37201211...

  • Recommended Trailer Coupler Locks That Can Be Keyed Alike
    I have another option for you, but the Bulldog Adjustable Coupler Lock # BD580410 you were looking at can not be ordered keyed alike. Instead I recommend going with the etrailer Surge Brake Coupler Lock - 3-3/8" Span - 1/4" Diameter - Chrome # e98888 which will work with nearly all of the trailer couplers available, and can be keyed alike so you do not have to worry about keeping track of 4 different keys.

  • Hitch Pin/Lock Needed For Demco Channel Tongue Trailer Coupler # DM15931-95
    For the Demco Channel Tongue Trailer Coupler # DM15931-95 you will need the Coupler Pin # 37201281 to ensure the hitch ball does not come unlatched while towing. You can also use the Lock # e98888 for additional security. The Pin # 37201244 you found only has a usable length of 2-9/16" and you need a minimum of 3" to fit your coupler. Also with the coupler pin opening of 5/16" you will not want to use a 5/16" pin as the pin is more likely to get stuck due to corrosion.

  • Trailer Coupler Lock for a Coupler with Large Lip
    You can use Master Lock # ML389DAT for coupler # CTA-280. Another option is to use a latch lock so that the latch cannot be opened. Most latches, if they can accept a lock, will take a 1/4 diameter pin such as # e98888 or # 3008.

    According to Demco the Channel Tongue Trailer Coupler # DM15931-95 is 13.7" long. Don't forget a etrailer Brake Coupler Lock # e98888. As this coupler has an oversized latch to make unlatching easier but does require a special size lock to keep your trailer secured.

    The Demco Trailer Coupler # DM15791-52 does not come with the locking pins or the mounting pins. The mounting pins will need to be supplied by you. Grade 5 mounting bolts must be used to achieve the 21,000-lb weight capacity and we do not carry them. For the body of the coupler the lock you'd need is # e98888 and for the pin you'd want # e98883.

    The etrailer.com Coupler Lock # e98888 will work perfectly with the Titan Leverlock Coupler # T4845000 to help protect your trailer while it's in storage. This heavy-duty pin simply takes the place of the existing pin on the coupler to either prevent a potential thief from coupling the trailer to his/her tow vehicle when it's in storage or actually lock the trailer to your hitch ball when you're out on adventures. I have attached a short video review that you can check out as well.

  • Recommended Lock for Demco Trailer Coupler - Cast - Adjustable Channel - eZ-Latch - 2-5/16"
    The best locking option we have for the Demco Trailer Coupler part # DM14040-52 is a pin lock. For this, I recommend the etrailer Coupler Lock part # e98888 which installs into the small pin hole on the side of the coupler. The pin lock will stop either a hitch ball from being coupled to the trailer or stop a hitch ball from being removed from the coupler, it can also be used as a failsafe while towing. Unfortunately, due to the design of the lock I don't think there's a surround style...
