I installed an RV Lock on my TT. Granted not a MH but it's worked flawlessly from the beginning. The key to my installation was to make sure that the latch and deadbolt were able to slip into the strike plate with no interference. Had to adjust the strike plate a little but a few manual operations before just relying on the electronic feature made it a trouble free installation.

The unit I received had a broken inside deadbolt handle, a victim of a UPS driver in a hurry. He merely underhanded the package at my front door (I have doorbell camera video). I contacted RV Lock and they sent me a replacement which was super easy to replace.

Second on the RVLock. We installed ours last year. It was a smooth installation, but I will also warn about ensuring a clear strike path, or it will kill the batteries very quickly. That said, we are very satisfied with ours.

I installed the RVLock brand on our Pursuit. I had no compatibility issues and it works just fine. We like it.

What issues are you having with yours? I have a Bauer on mine and it does pretty well most of the time.

My Bauer is flawless for 3 years. OEM.

What does a clear strike path mean? I had the RV Lock and I ended up taking it out as the batteries were always dead when I wanted to use it. When it worked it worked fine. I use my RV a lot but was always having battery issues. As I remember there was no way to turn it off when in storage. Not worth the hassle to me...

How often do you need to replace the batteries? How about others following this thread?

I've had this lock on my previous and current RV. Great product and highly recommend. That said, I normally replace my batteries once a year during the spring shakedown. Obviously, if you're a full timer, or if you are a frequent camper, it may require replacement on a more accelerated schedule than mine.
