Is Installing the Cam-Action Lockable Door Latch Kit Easy
Updated 07/15/2019 | Published 07/13/2019 >
Question:
I purchased this kit to install on dump trailer barn doors Im building. The box has no instructions and Ive never done one before. Are there instructions or will this be pretty self explanatory once I get started?

Installation of the Cam-Action Lockable Door Latch Kit w/ Narrow Hasp for Small Enclosed Trailers # 383200 is generally regarded as pretty easy, but unfortunately the manufacturer makes no instructions available for this kit for some reason. However, all you need is a pipe with a 3/4" inside diameter and the handle and cam ends will need to be welded to the pipe; the rest of the application gets bolted on.
