Many thanks for taking the time to put this video together. We were in the middle of a nine day trip recently when we had the exact issue with our lock. Your step by step instructions were just what we needed to fix our lock in less than 10 minutes.
So glad it helped!
Awesome video. I was able to fix my son's camper lock that had this problem. Thank you so much for taking the time to record this video to help others. Great job!!!!
I’m so glad that the video is still helping people like yourself a few years after I shot it. Thank you for your kind comments!
Thank you kindly sir, I'm a single female that HAD a broken lock but thanks to you it's now fixed and I'll sleep soundly! 🙏😀
You’re welcome, thank you for watching.
Thank you so much for putting this video together. Saved us BIG TIME! Was able to remove and repair the lock in no time at all. (Was sure to use thread lock on the screws when putting back together!). While our issue was similar as described in your video, ours was slightly different. The plate was loose, and the "spindle" that turns when you insert the key was so loose that it would not turn the deadbolt mechanism. The key would not engage the spindle. The "pin" that connects the spindle to the deadbolt was still in place. In any case, the loose plate was the culprit, and all is well now. Thanks again!!
That’s great! So glad our video could help you! Thank you for watching and commenting!
Just wanted to tell you your video was so good we were able to fix our dead bolt lock. Thank you so much. 6/20/2024
I’m glad that the video helped you! Thank you for the kind comment. Safe travels!
I found your video and it worked!!!!!! My husband started taking the door off when I found it and he walked away and let me do it!! THANK YOU!!
You’re very welcome. I’m so happy to see that this video has helped so many!
Wow!! You saved me from buying another lock. Your video took me step by step to repair mine. Didn’t have any broken or missing parts but it took 9 years of locking and unlocking the latch for those two tiny screws to work their way out enough to loosen the plate and the U shaped bar that connected the red latch to the deadbolt bar. Didn’t have any locktite but I got all the screws tight enough that it will work as long as I own this 2014 Keystone Montana.
Glad our video helped! Thank you for watching!
Same issue same story ...Super quick and easy fix ....Many thanks !!!
Glad it helped, thank you for watching and commenting! Safe travels!
Thank you! Simple and quick because of your clear instructions 😊
Glad it helped!
Thank you for the wonderful instructions. I’m not handy. Our lock had the same issue as you demonstrated in the video. Followed your instructions and we now have a working lock again. Thanks again.
You're so welcome! Thanks for watching!
Hi, I own a food trailer. My door locked, I had to climb through the window to repair it. I used your video to fix the lock. Thank you!!!
I’m so glad that our video was able to help you and so many others.
Great video! I replaced my last lock that had this issue and the new one is doing the same thing after less than a year. Now I am going to fix and not replace. Thank you!!!
I’m glad this video was helpful for you! Thank you for your kind comments and watching!
Thanks ima be doing this this weekend so I can lock my trailer now
Awesome, I’m glad our video could help!
Thank you! I had the same issue and was able to fix this based on your video. YOU ROCK!
So glad that our video helped you fix your lock!!! This video was posted 3 years ago and it’s still helping people like you.
Safe travels!
It worked like a charm. Thanks so much!
Glad it helped!
Man this video was a life saver. The same bar came off my deadbolt but the deadbolt was stuck in the lock position. I had no idea what to look for but this video made it all clear. You best believe I put locktite on those two screws.
Thank you.
Thanks for putting up the video luckily I had same issue shortly after I moved and your video helped me fix it up 🎉🎉 easy n simple. I also avoided more work by just removing first plate adding that little metal piece that fell back
Glad it helped!
Thank you for this video!!! We were having the same problem and getting ready to go to the dealer for help. Then my husband said try Google. Appreciate your help💯👍👍
So glad the video helped!
thanks so much for the help..just sold my camper and the deadbolt quit working..fixed it no problem!!
Glad it helped
Your video was a life saver! Excellent video and great instructions. Going tomorrow to buy thread-lock and reinstall the door lock. Again, thank you from Talladega, AL!
So glad that my video helped you! That’s why we made these, to help others. You’re welcome and safe travels on the open road!
Thank you!!!! So much! This video helped us fix our lock that stopped working yesterday for the exact same reason! Super easy DIY fix :)
You're welcome! Glad it helped and thank you for watching!
My deadbolt hasn't worked for the last 4 months that we've been on the road. Unfortunately, the deadbolt has fallen out at some point, and I just ordered a new latch kit. Great video, though!
Sorry to hear that, thank you!
Thank you! We've been having issues with our RV door for a few months. The deadbolt fell out this morning and your video helped us fix our issue!
I’m so happy that you were able to find our video and fix your issue! Thank you for watching and commenting!
Very helpful video
Glad you think so!
Thank you very much. After watching your video I had mine fixed in less than 5 min.
That’s great! I like to hear that my videos help others. Take care and happy camping!
Red loctite is a NO NO!! Stick with blue if you want to remove the screws for later maintenance.. Thanks for the video this helped me out!!
Well, everyone has their own preferences. I’ve never had an issue breaking red free. Plus we were in the middle of nowhere practically and it’s what I had on hand.
Thank you my friend. I have the exact same issue and now I know how to fix it. However before I try if the door works I would go to the inside so I can get back at the screws in case something goes wrong LOL
Certainly, our son was inside though and we also have a second door 😉. Thanks for watching and commenting!
My 2011 KZ Durango had the same problem. Those 2 screws holding that plate must be very tight! In fact, thread locker should be used
I just ive been locking a door that does not lock.! Knobs are turning but thats all.. Thank you from another single lady . tomorrow i will take it apart and see whats lose in there.
You are so welcome
Good in fo
Thank you, this was the same issue I had so the fix was only 10 minutes 3 looking for the 4 screws I dropped.
Great! So glad it worked for you! I believe I spent a few minutes looking for dropped screws too!
Nice video and you get right to it.. love that.. Thanks
Thanks for the comment and watching our videos
Bingo! Thank you and subscribed and liked.
Any suggestions on how to tighten a striker plate that slide forward and back? The existing drilled holes are bigger than the screws I have. I wasn’t sure if getting a slightly wider screw would do the trick, if there was a filler or even a completely different type of screw so trying to do research before I make the problem worse. Thank you in advance. 🤞
Thank you for watching and commenting.
To fill loose screw holes, I’ve use match stick ends, rubber bands, small straws can work. A larger screw is an option, but these other ones are too.
My recommendation is always match stick ends or wood shims, with a little glue.
Let me know if this works. Best of luck!
I suggest using blue thread lock, the red will make this very hard if you have to take it apart in the future.
Blue thread lock is an option, I just didn’t have any with me.
This happened to us today and we’ve been parked for a year! Apparently just using the door can cause it to come loose. Always something 🙄
Amazing that something so simple, can cause so much havoc. Glad you were able to get it fixed.
I dropped the bar down inside the door how do I get it out 😭
I’m not sure how you would get it out. The door should have insulation in it, so I’d think it couldn’t have fallen far. Maybe a magnet on a string..?
You could probably make a new bar out of a wire coat hanger.
Sorry I can’t help you more. Let me know if you find a solution.
Blue lock tite
Would have been nice to have, but I didn’t have any and we were practically in the middle of an Amish farming community.
