Cam-action door latch with pre-installed 1" diameter pipe is ideal for side doors that are smaller than rear doors on your trailer. Double-action handle protects against jarring while driving. Non-removable pin helps keep your cargo safe.Thanks for the follow up. We just bought a Look 6' x 12' cargo trailer that only had the in-door lock on the side door. Of course we wanted to beef that up and in searching found your site. After reading the reviews we ordered the #305736 36" side door bar lock assembly on 1/20 and received it 1/22. Great! We installed it the next day in about an hour. It went on with minimal effort (drilling the holes was the worst) and looks as if it came on the trailer. We did install the hinge side over the door trim and used backer plywood inside with oversized washers and locking washers. We did the same for the door bracket. The pictures on your site from customers helped us, so we have attached a couple of our own. Thanks e-trailer! The Wheelers
The W - 01/29/2015I just attached the 36" latch bar. it only took about 30 minutes. Took longer to make sure it was positioned right and not to impede on the rv latch. I included a small bracket on the door as well. Latch hardware seems better the originals on back. 5/16" carriage bolts are needed. I used 2 1/2" then cut off anything past the nut. Pictures included.
Thanks for coming back and following up!

Patrick B - 12/28/2013 Michael K - 10/24/2014Usually these latches are not positioned so closely to the edge of the door. Most of the time, the hinges of the handle side and the latch for the handle are set equidistant from the edges of their respective doors.
-- Patrick B - 3/9/2015We recieved our door-bar on Thursday Evening, and Friday I installed it in about an hour. I purchased $7.50 worth of carriage bolts & washers & ny-lock nut. 2.5 carriage bolt for the 36" rod hinge & 2" for the door. Our older Aluma trailer door lock with the "rod & lever" closure was not keeping the door completely closed plus the keys are obsolete and needed a new key.
With this set up my doors stay sealed to keep out dirt & dust and I can use any heavy duty lock. (Lock upgrade purchase soon) Thanks for fast delivery service too. Odered on Monday & recieved on Thursday!
Plus we love our 1.25 receiver hitch for our VW Jettawagen which we use to haul our bicycles! (purchased in October). We Paid $75 to have it professionally installed but saved $100 on the hitch.
Good product. Only thing is mounting hole is 5/16 carriage bolt. Not 3/8. Can’t really complain.
Sierra K - 05/06/2022Pretty nice product. Appears to be made in the USA by Polar. One of the welds is what I would call sub par, but the rest look OK. Easy install on my cargo trailer's side door. Takes 5/16" carriage bolts.
Holds door securely shut. I added a custom bracket to stabilize the side of this homemade box, by using the back door as a shear wall. See special bracket just below top hinge, under rod. The right wall cannot vibrate when driving, or be pushed out by contents inside.
Very pleased with the door latch. But extremely happy with etrailer for the speed of getting the door latch to me. We use this trailer every day.
Great products, perfect replacements!
E-trailer did an excellent job of shipping and handling of the product sent to me. It is of high quality and should last for years. It was delivered when they said it would be and I have installed it. Quite happy with it but wish that they would stock a 45" bar lock

This door latch is holding up well in the West Virginia winter environment with all of the road salt. I would have given it five stars but we did have to use several stainless steel fender washers and linger bolts to space the latch portion out from the door about 3/8” to keep from having to cut the trim around the door opening. Other than that everything was good.
The 36" LockSide Door was shipped fast and was just what I was looking for.
It was the correct size for my door and was easy to install. Took about and hour and fit . All I Had to do was get the hardware to install . Would buy this product again and would recommend.
Adds extra security, which is why I bought it. The product is well made but the machining is a little rough. Aside from that, it's a good product and does the job of slowing the bad guys down by adding another layer to a potential robbery.
Prompt shipment, Quality product, insufficient dimensional detail to determine the designed relationship between the hinge mounting surface plane and the door surface plane when door is in the closed position. Had to buy the product in order to determine the applicability. Was able to adapt after determining the required shim thickness.see attached pix.
Product shipped quickly! Was at my door 3 days later. Took 45 mins to install by my self very easy! It helped reading reviews to insure it was installed right. I would definitely recommend a brace inside of door where latch is door was flimsy.
Received in a timely fashion and exactly what we were looking for. Thank You!
here is a pic of the trailer I built, used the products from your place. started with a simple
utility trailer, and build this enclosed trailer.
Excellent so far as I have not installed it yet
Will update when I do
The Lock Side-Door Bar is what should be on the door. I security it gives me now hauling the trailer down the road is comforting knowing that it will no long swing open in its original state with just a key entry lock. My husband was happy with the simple install and it matches what I already have on the drop back door. Very happy with the product. Highly recommend it.
DonnaK - 03/27/2018My trailer didn't come with one so I was always worried about the side door coming open. Not anymore!! This item is perfect for what I needed, easy install too. A LOT cheaper price then expected! Arrived sooner then was told.
Greg - 05/22/2019Great quality and excellent customer se rvice!
Great quality, didn’t come with the bolts to install, which was a bummer.
Trailer I bought didn't have it and I wanted it. Only regret is you don't have mounting hard for it. I'll get it local.
It worked great and was a simple insta llation
My shed door didn't close well and the shed was becoming a haven for wasps. After searching for a door latch that would seal the door I found your website and you had the perfect product for my project.
Your site was easy to navigate and simple to use. I was happy with the email updates on the shipping status and the latch arrived in good time and in good condition.
This might be the first time your trailer parts were used to fix a shed, so I'm including a picture.
All in all, a great experience.
