Question:
I need a new latch for my enclosed trailer. It was vandalized as well as my work van. I need a new latch that is vandal proof if there is such a thing. Maybe even hardened steel. Also do you offer grill guards for windows on vans? 2006 Chevy 1500. Thank you so much for your help. Look forward to purchasing from you.

Helpful Expert Reply:
We do offer a replacement door latch, part # 158-101. If you used the Blaylock Door Lock for Enclosed Trailers, part # BLDL-80 in conjunction with the latch, you would certainly provide additional theft deterrence. The lock will not turn away the most determined thief, but will likely make them move on to an easier target.
You would need to replace your existing damaged keeper latch with the 158-101. Once installed, the lock would install over the keeper latch and protect it.
We unfortunately do not offer window gratings for your van.
