Selected User Reviews For RV Travel Trailer Entry Door Lock Polar Black Paddle Deadbolt
It is not common for me to write reviews, but I felt it was needed here. As the key to my previous door lock was getting bent, I bought this one to replace it. I would like to apologize for the cheap screws used in the installation. I was able to lock and unlock the door from the inside, but from the outside, it was a little more challenging. Getting the key in the lock was always a problem for me. Initially, I bought it as something new and figured it would sort out once I began using it more. That was an error on my part. can't get the key into the lock when I get home tonight. I tried to get the key into the door for five minutes. In the end, I used my trusty bent key to open the rear door of my RV after I had lost all hope. The old lock will be installed tomorrow, and I will uninstall it. My trust in it is greater than this waste of money, even with a bent key.
Is over-extended It is possible to damage the core material of the door by tightening them. I have read reviews about other aftermarket brands who have had dead bolt problems and this lock set works as good as new. However, only time will tell if it doesn't eventually happen like the original and other aftermarket brands. In the process of installation, an eye must be kept out for over-installation Due to the lack of shoulders, the soft door material can be damaged more easily than on the original lock. screw in the original lock permitted the two sides of the lock to be loosened without excessively bringing them together at the point where they began damaging the core material of the door. . state that two keys are required for the deadbolt It was a relief to discover that the four keys that came with my lock worked on both locks, making it easier to use both locks.
I installed a handle on it so I could close it from the inside. In spite of fear of cutting into my new door, installation went much better than I expected since I was doing something I had never done Before you start cutting holes in your door, it may be helpful to create a template, as I did, so you can ensure placement is accurate before you begin. Though if you're replacing a broken latch it should be relatively easy to swap out. Once you get in, keys stick a little while going into locks, but they work perfectly when they're there.
The lock on our trailer would not open, so we had to climb out of the emergency exit and spend over an hour taking it apart so as not to In the process of disassembling the machine, a small bar fell out which had clearly not been installed correctly. In the end, my husband was able to position it in the right place and unlocked the door after 2 hours (at midnight). As a result, since the deadbolt was absent, we were unable to lock the door from the inside. Good thing we are camping somewhere secure! The experience I had with this product makes it impossible for me to recommend it.
By taking off the two screws on the edge plate, you can easily remove the old one. To remove the assembly completely, this must be done in order to give yourself enough space to maneuver. To remove the dead bolt handle, pull it out. An adhesive c clip is used to secure it. Pulling it off was as easy as taking a pair of pliers. In the end, I did not use the c clip, so I pushed the new one on. There is no need for this. To remove the assembly from the inside, remove the four screws and push the assembly out so that it isn't attached to the door. Oil the keyhole, bolt mechanism, and bolt assembly with a little bit of oil. You should install the new one in the reverse direction of how you removed the old one. Add the plate, attach with one screw and then reattach the screw. The door mechanism should be aligned so that it is square with the door end and the metal should be pushed against the steel. Screw in 3 more screws, tighten them like the lugs on an auto tire, and test. Attach the new deadbolt It was changed because the key lock was no longer functioning on the old door assembly. It was stuck after I replaced it, so I realized it had to be replaced. One of the key holes of the new one has a moon on one side of it, so it opens and closes with no effort on your part. in the lock, place the key at an angle and it will slide into the key hole cover out of the way. Turn the key to lock the door. The key will not go into the lock if you try to insert it directly. The fact that it is harder to pick makes sense. First time I have done this, and it took me less than an hour to get done. It will be a spare, which I will buy another.
It was relatively inexpensive compared with other locks, and there seem to be enough positive reviews to convince me to purchase the lock. I was unable to unlock the deadbolt, so I had to pay someone to unlock it for me.
Another problem is that there is no way to insert the key into the metal of the lock. In order to insert a keyhole key, one has to use a special key. I was able to deal with this inconvenience despite it being inconvenient. However, to be in an out of doors because of a clearly bad design of the deadbolt is a big deal. In Lake Elsinore, I lost two hours while I waited for help to get into my RV in hot weather of 100F. Can you believe it? Bad luck? There is NO such thing as a bad product. Use at your own risk.
It's possible for keys to break if not handled carefully. Second key in main lock almost broke. Note this is an update. Let me know what you think. As far as I can tell, this is what you get for the price you pay. My unit is faulty and I've got a faulty device, but in someone else's trailer/camper, it worked fine. As my mother, who is in her 50's, had a hard time opening it as the handle was tight or snug, but it may have been due to her My first experience was no issues. Later I encountered some of the other reviews complaining that keys were difficult to insert. I had a broken key (almost off, in deadbolt lock) and Amazon was willing to replace (but I am not sure what I will do right now) but I couldn't reach the seller to inquire about the issue. After asking the seller (wasn't able to contact or be contacted before the package was sent back) I will let you know what happens or if I will send the package Nevertheless, it does not mean it is a bad or good product. If you are a new owner, then you need cheap replacement products.
We ordered both at the same time and assumed they would be keyed the same way. That's not the case, I guess I should not have assumed that. Taking part in a retraining program promises to be a lot of fun Pinning one of these things is a great idea. I just updated the post to mention that the lock cylinder is riveted in, so there's no way to remove Organize them so they match one another. On top of that, there is no key code on the cylinders or on the keys, so I cannot exchange one for.
