Features to know about

Effortless Security for Your Adventures: Locking Latch System

Traveling with valuable luggage or equipment can be worrisome, but the Bauer Products RV Baggage Door Slam Latch ensures peace of mind. This robust, locking latch is designed to secure the baggage door on your RV or travel trailer. Compatible with Bauer BP-20, Fastec (FIC) 30205, and Global Link 40101-2006 latches, it's a seamless replacement that locks down even on the bumpiest roads.

Unyielding Performance in Cold Weather: Durable, Sturdy Construction

Concerned about latches failing in cold conditions? The Bauer Slam Latch tackles this with its rust-resistant black powder coat finish and robust steel construction. Unlike original plastic mechanisms that crack in frigid temperatures, this latch stays intact, proving its reliability in all weather.

Customize Your Security: Keyed Alike Compatibility

Handling multiple keys can be a hassle, especially when managing several locks on your RV. That’s where the keyed alike feature comes in handy. Select the "keyed alike" option for a unified key solution across multiple locks, eliminating the need to carry a jangle of keys on your travels.

Perfect Fit, Every Time: Compatibility with Standard Cutouts

If you’ve ever struggled with a latch not fitting properly, this is engineered for you. With dimensions to fit cutouts of 3-1/4" tall by 4" wide, it’s designed to neatly replace your existing baggage door latches, ensuring a seamless upgrade without any need for unusual modifications.

Swift Installation for On-the-Go Lifestyle: Easy Installer-Friendly Design

For those who love swift, DIY upgrades, this Bauer latch offers an easy installation. Whether you’re parked at a campsite or in your driveway, you can quickly swap out your current latch. With no need for complex tools or additional hardware, enhancing security is as immediate as it is effective.

Ergonomic Design with No Extra Cutouts: Integral Plunger Mechanism

Ever wish for a latch that doesn’t require extra door alterations? This product includes an internal plunger, doing away with the need to cut out a slot on the door edge, making it an ideal choice for straightforward, mess-free installations.

Good product and better built than the original!

It seems these slam latches are by far superior than the originals on our Solitude. eTrailer was able to key the slam latches to our existing Bauer keys; so nice not having additional keys. We highly recommend getting your locking slam latches from eTrailer. If I can say this, the price is great!!

@Judy Glad to hear you are still happy with them! Let us know if there is anything else you need!


by:

Exact replacement for the outer handle and latch section of my OEM non locking latch which had the handle snap off in cold weather. Note that this does not include the interior galvanized plate piece for the inside of the hatch door. Also, It includes only the one key, which is fine as I won’t be locking it as it replaces a non locking latch… This item cost over $[XX] less than my dealer wanted for basically the same rebranded non-locking Bauer Product-20 latch…



by:

Shipping was very fast! Locks were exactly what we needed.



by:

These slap latches worked perfectly on my 2021 Chaparral. Installation took a total of 20 mins for the 3 latches I replaced.
Thanks etrailer



by:

Delivery was on time. However, I received no hardware, nor a back plate for this latch. Reached out to them regarding a return, informing them that there was no hardware nor back plate. The only response I received were questions regarding the condition of my return, and that I need to pay the shipping costs to return. My recommendation, please be sure you look at the product description thoroughly.



by:

Was told I needed a new lock since I lost the key. Upon receiving the lock it turned out that the new key that came with the new lock actually worked on my old lock. So this Bauer lock is the #357 key in case you only need a key.



by:

While the latches arrived all key the same as the entry door per my request and they arrived earlier than expected I cannot give them a 5 star review. All three of the latches have the same problem in that I had to self tap the 4 holes for screws to insert myself. There was no threading inside for screws holes what so ever. I tried to contact Bauer per recommendation from etrailer to never receive a call back. Also went to Bauers website to find no infomation on how they are actually attached or installed.

Hey Ricky! I reached out to Bauer too, and they said there aren't any written instructions to pass along, and they said you would just use the old hardware to install the new latch.

I have only had them a month. They are working great but still no answer on why I had to tread the screw holes

This part looks like it will be exact match for latch on my gd travel trailer I have yet too install but see no problem with that. Thanks again e trailer



by:

Easy to install and they seem very stur dy.



by:

I needed a lock for an older model and your people were very helpful in finding the right lock



by:

Great quality and quick shipping.



by:

The service was excellent, But I can’t use the part. It’s to short on the latch . The I have is 6 inches long



by:

Vary nice pice I’m going to purchase one for the other door so much better than the tv lock brand thank you e trailer.



by:

The Door Slam Latch is well made but will not work on my 5th wheel. It's not the product. The Bauer door latch is much better constructed than the latch it was replacing. I needed a replacement quickly, contacted etrailer who made every effort to provide information and measurements, I knew there was a chance it wouldn't be a suitable sub, and took a shot anyway. Upside, I was right.



by:

Great replacement. Fit perfectly. Broke key off in our old one and this fixed our issue. Love etrailer!!



by:

Great product and quick delivery. Thanks



by:

Very happy with these locks. Able to install four of them in less than 30 minutes. Keys fit into the key holes effortlessly.



by:

Nice product. Works well but didn't fit as expected. The outside diameter on the plunger end is more narrow than the top. It didn't cover the cutout very well.I used geocel proflex around latch.



by:

Doesn't allow for door thickness of more than 1/2 inch.

I know that this lock replaces the Replaces Bauer BP-20, Fastec [FIC] 30205, Global Link 40101-2006, BLL-50101-2006 door slam latches. To know if the latch will fit you will need to remove your current slam latch and measure the cutout hole. This slam latch has a cutout hole requirement of 3.25 inches tall x 4 inches wide.



by:

Very high quality and excellent customer service

  • Could Slam Latch Install on 2020 Coachmen Freedom Express Ultra Lite
    Hey Anthony, do you have a cam lock currently? Like on the outside all you see is a lock core and on inside there's a little arm that grabs the inside of the door? Or is there a cut out already? Either way you could use a slam latch like the part # BA57FR but you just might have to make the cut out on the door a bit bigger.

  • Replacement Door Latches and Compartment Locks Keyed Alike
    Hey Anthony. You'll definitely need to stick to the same brand. If you look below the price on the Replacement Cam Lock for RVs - Chrome Finish item # BA56FR, you were looking at, you'll see a drop down tab that says Keyed Unique. Click on that and select Keyed Alike before you add them to your cart. For compatible compartment door latch assemblies you'll need the Bauer Products RV Baggage Door Slam Latch - Black item # BA57FR. You'll go through the same process with selecting Keyed Alike....

  • Looking For Baggage Door Slam Latch For 2014 K-Z Stoneridge 5th Wheel
    Hello Greg, thanks for reaching out. We do offer slam latches, so we should have something for you, but there is no way to look up your RV to know exactly what latch you will need. RV manufacturers just are not that specific with their online literature. Your best bet will be to check the size of the current latch, then find something with the same dimensions and configuration. For example, the Bauer Products RV Baggage Door Slam Latch # BA57FR measures 5" wide x 4-1/2" tall x 1-1/2"...

  • Looking for Replacement Slam Latch for RV
    Hey James, we have compartment latches like you are looking for with the Bauer Products RV Baggage Door Slam Latch part # BA57FR which is designed to fit a cutout of 3-1/4" tall x 4" wide. It's hard to say exactly what you cut out is but you might measure and compare to see if it would fit. Keep in mind if your cut out is smaller you could always enlarge it to fit this latch.

  • Replacement Slam Latch for 2016 Grand Design Solitude 377MBR
    Hey Ryan! It looks like Grand Design used the BP-20 latch on the 2016 Solitude 377MBR. The Bauer Products RV Baggage Door Slam Latch # BA57FR is a direct replacement for the BP-20. You can double check this by measuring your cutout. This fits a 3-1/4" tall x 4" wide cutout.

  • Can Cam Style Baggage Door Latch be Replaced with Slam Latch on RV
    Hey Mark, I found a couple articles online that said it should be possible by just making some holes bigger but I was not able to find a walk through or guide on exactly what to do. I would think a mounting plate style lock like the part # GL34FR would make the most sense since it would be easier to attach the two pieces on either side of the door.

    Hello Gregory, thanks for reaching out. We do carry baggage door latches that may work for you, but there is no way to look up your camper to know exactly which latch you need. RV manufacturers just are not that specific with their online literature. Basically I will need to know the overall dimensions of your latch, as well as the cutout size on the door.

    Hi Bill; if you get the latches with the 300 series key # BA84FR a keyed alike option is available. These can be paired with the Bauer Products RV Baggage Door Slam Latch # BA57FR so they all use the same key.

    The Bauer Products RV Baggage Door Slam Latch # BA57FR will fit cut outs that measure 3-1/4" tall x 4" wide (which is a fairly standard measurement). If that is the size of your cut out then this slam latch will work for you.

  • How to Determine the Correct Replacement Slam Latch for a 2018 Sonic Lite Travel Trailer
    You are correct, they are slam latches and we do carry replacement options. However, to determine the correct replacement slam latch, we will need to know your cut-out hole dimensions. Unfortunately, there is not a database or anything that gives us that information. For example the Bauer Products RV Baggage Door Slam Latch # BA57FR fits a cut-out meassuring 3-1/4" tall x 4" wide.

    Without a key number it is going to be impossible to find replacement keys for the other doors. DB isn't a designation that identifies the lock brand or the corresponding key.
