Still working well.

Purchased for my dump trailer and I installed myself; it works great!



by:

Heavy duty latch for a great price



by:

I bought this set to replace the worn and bent latches on my recycling truck. The package arrived quickly and contained everything as ordered. I was actually pleasantly surprised that this set is much heavier duty than I was expecting, and much better quality than the set I originally built the truck with (sourced locally). This is a very nice quality set that will last years longer than my existing door latches. Thanks eTrailer!



by:

Exactly what I was looking for and very well built. Looks strong. Using it on the back of a dump trailer that has a broken latch on two swing open doors. Manufacturer wanted $2100 for two new doors because the latch broke.



by:

I’m very pleased with the product. The latch looks like it will serve us well. I was a little apprehensive weather it would work on a livestock trailer. I believe it will work just fine. Thank you e-trailer.

  • Bar Dimensions Compatible With Polar 258-002 Cam-Action Lockable Door Latch Kit
    I went out to our warehouse to take measurements of the Cam-Action Lockable Door Latch Kit for Large Enclosed Trailers - Zinc-Plated Steel # PLR258-002. The bar you will need is 3/4 inches inner diameter and can be up to 1-1/8 inches outer diameter to fit in the brackets and move properly. I've attached a photo to assist.

  • Replacement Hasp for Polar Cam-Action Latch Kit
    Replacement Hasp # PLR258-101 can be used as a stand alone item but it is a replacement for the hasp that comes with Cam-Action Lockable Door Latch Kit # PLR258-002. It does not sound like what you are looking for though. To determine if we have what you are looking for I would need to see it. If you can please email me a picture.

  • Replacement Cam Action Door Latch Kit For Rear Double Door On Lark Enclosed Trailer
    Based on images I could find of Lark enclosed trailers with a double rear door it looks like you are going to need the Kit # PLR258-002. This will give you the mounts, handle, and catches for your trailer but you will need to source the 3/4" steel pipe and hardware needed locally and have the handle and cams welded to the pipe. If you have something different from this type of setup please send me your images and dimensions for the parts you are looking to replace.

  • 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...

  • Will the Polar Heady Duty Camp Action Door Lock Work to Latch Horse Trailer Dutch Doors to Ramp
    The Polar Heavy-Duty Cam Action Door Lock for Enclosed Trailers # PLR258-002 that you referenced will work well for you to add dual cam door locks to the dutch doors and ramp of your horse trailer. This cam action door lock can work for both right or left hand doors, so the same part number with work for both of the dutch doors on your trailer. The # PLR258-002 is designed for use with a 3/4 inch pipe, which is not included. This pipe can be found at your local hardware store.

  • 2007 Collin Arndt Replacement Latch Kit Recommendation for Door
    While we don't have that style of door latch kit, I do have a solution for you with the Cam-Action Lockable Door Latch Kit # PLR258-002 which comes with everything but the bar which is looks like you already have. I haven't seen that type of latch before so you may have trouble finding the top keeper which is why I referenced the kit above.

  • Replacement Latches for 2002 Platinum LQ Horse Trailer
    We may have a solution for you though we do not have parts specific to trailers so you would need to find something compatible with your current latches. The Cam-Action Lockable Door Latch Kit w/ Wide Hasp # PLR258-002 may be an option, as could side door lock # PLR3057. I will link our selection of available door hardware for you to take a look at. If you can get back to me with a photo of what you need I may also be able to help you that way.

  • Replacement Cam Action Latch for a Trailer
    Hey Keegan, thanks for reaching out! We have some cam action latch kits like the Polar Hardware # PLR258-002 that just requires a 3/4" pipe to fit everything together. I sent you an email the other day asking for the photos and dimensions of your current setup. If the one mentioned above doesn't look like it will work, please let me know what you have and/or reply to the separate email I sent you so I can help you get the right product!

  • Recommended Side Door Latch For An Older Haulmark Enclosed Trailer
    We have a few options available for side door latches and one that I like is the Polar Hardware Cam-Action Lockable Door Latch w/ 36" Pipe # 305736. The shorter pipe makes this ideal for side doors as it isn't quite as large and bulky as options for rear doors. This may not be an exact replacement for your Haulmark trailer, but it definitely a good option.

  • Are There Dimensions Required for Use when Installing the Polar Cam Action Door Lock # PLR258-002
    When you install the Polar Heavy Duty Cam Action Door Lock # PLR258-002 You basically will want to mock it up on the trailer in the position you need it and then mark those locations so that when you permanently mount everything it all fits together well. If you are asking about the appropriate distance between the cams at the bottom of the pole and the pipe mounting brackets that really just depends on the setup. There isn't an exact distance required there. But I would try to get it as...

  • Why Are My Tires Blowing About Every 2 Years
    With the information that you provided it would not be a weight issue. After doing some research it could be a few things. First you need to make sure that you're inflating your tires to the maximum PSI, If tires are underinflated, the tires can wear on the inside rather than evenly around the tread. Another option could be that your trailer suspension is not perfectly squared or the axle isn't straight and the tries can reflect by wearing unevenly, and finally I would check the hub....
