Will the Bauer Bluetooth Slam Latch Fit an Existing 3-1/4 Inch by 4 Inch Cutout?

Published 11/05/2026

Question:

I have a motorhome with several storage compartments, and I'd like to replace the original locks with something I can operate from my phone. The openings for my current latches measure 4 inches across and 3 1/4 inches tall. I found the Bauer BP-24E # BA55HR, but I'm trying to avoid having to cut or modify the compartment doors. Will this fit those openings, and can I control more than one lock through the same app?

Hey Dennis! Yes, the Bauer BP-24E Keyless RV Compartment Slam Latch # BA55HR is made for an existing cutout measuring 4 inches wide by 3 1/4 inches tall, so those measurements are exactly what you're looking for. You shouldn't need to enlarge the opening, although I'd still check your existing latch style and mounting setup before swapping everything over.

And since you've got several compartments, I think you'll appreciate that you can group compatible Bauer Bluetooth locks together in the Bauer Connect App. That way, you can manage your compartment locks from your phone instead of walking around the motorhome checking each one with a key. It also has automatic proximity locking and unlocking, plus a regular key for backup.

Are your current compartment locks Global Link Mini Pro models, or are they another brand?
