The electric Solera awnings don't use locks to keep them held in place as the motors of them keep them from unrolling. The locks are only needed with the manual awnings like what the # LC362101 provides.

The truth is that when that crappy plastic gear strips the flat on the drive shaft, the awning can, and does unroll. Ask me how I know. So, they need some kind of a safety catch. Luckily we weren't going very fast, and were in the right lane when it decided to deploy. Any thoughts on a locking mechanism? There is not enough meat on the aluminum arms when they come together when closed to install a 1/4" latch pin.
