Perhaps there’s already a thread on this if so, I’ll add. But here’s my question. When I go to rebuild my door , I was going to try and refurbish the handle lock original to the trailer. PO slapped on a standard hasp with padlock for some measure of security.
So, how do we keep our trailers secure after investing countless hours and money? Is there a better door lock system that can be sort of hidden within the vintage lock? Like a beefed up deadbolt? I’ve finished framing the walls and added a wider piece of framing for the deadbolt.
Send the links pics ideas of what the community has done in this area. I know everyone’s trailers could have different vintage handle locks….just thinking of a better more solid design but with a retro vibe that’s fits with my 58 Jewel.
Thanks all!
