Why I Chose the "Unpopular" RV Keyless Entry Lock & Whats Happening 1.5 Years Later Want the truth about budget-friendly, lesser known RV products? Sometimes the most popular RV product everyone is talking about on Facebook is popular for good reason, but sometimes its not always the best value. 18 months ago I took a shot on an RV keyless entry door lock system that most RV'ers never heard of because quite honestly, it had more features, better reviews, & cost a little less. Ill show you what it looks like a year and a half later & give you my honest feedback if I regret my decision.

This was one of the first upgrades i did to my RV after purchasing it, after watching your install video and review. And I 100% agree with everything you said in this video. It’s really hard to think of a big issue negative with this product. I highly recommend anyone looking for a keyless entry lock purchase this one! And thanks for sharing your thoughts on it after having it for over a year.

The keyless baggage latches, Bluetooth module, and the matched rv key latch filled all the demands of what I was trying to achieve with an upgraded locking system.

Great review. I wish I had seen this before I purchased my rv lock over 2 years ago. The one suggestion I have for all inside door handles is to make the handle a different color than black. Many guests have been unable to find the handle to open the door when inside the rv. I put some white tape on the handle to resolve this issue.

Thanks for the update. We had a different brand keyless lock which ended up failing rather quickly. After watching your original video I replaced it with the Carmtek a year ago. Like you, we've been very happy with it. The ONLY PROBLEM we've had is our dogs sometimes paw at the door when they want to go out and have switched off the FOB (or muted the button beep). That forces us to be sure we remember our door code in case our FOB doesn't work.

@RVTIPSANDTRAVELS 2 місяці тому

I've never heard of Carmtek lock until seeing this video, nor did I know any company makes keyless locks for compartment doors. I went with a keyless lock from Global Link back in 2020. They are the primary entry door lock supplier for most RV manufacturers. The nice thing about their locks is you can get compartment door locks that are keyed to match the entry doors. My keyless entry door lock has been flawless for the 4 years I've had it.

we just bought an RV from a private party, they have two of these locks installed... i could not find a key to replace the key.. the previous owners gave me one key... and 2 fobs... i contacted carmtek to give me an idea where to get another key..and they said probably just a locksmith. ..so they DID agree to send us two new cylinders if we didn't want to try to get a locksmith to remake our keys. Which is great. .and they didn't charge shipping. I appreciate that, but I do wish we could have an easier way to get more keys!

@RVTIPSANDTRAVELS 7 днів тому

i can understand that companies who mass produce these products dont always have a solution for things like what youre requesting. most of the time they are not made on site, or subcontracted, so individual parts may be difficult for them to manage while keeping the bills paid. However, I think its awesome that they are working with you and willing to send you parts at no cost. Nobody does that! I work personally with the owner of Carmtek and he's a great guy. you can probably take the key to a locksmith or a hardware store and have it duplicated for less than $5.

@ryanabbott1104 3 місяці тому

I have this lock. Love everything about it except the install. That flat wire loom, is stiff and hard to manipulate all while lining up both locks and making sure the wires don’t get pinched. Super difficult to do by myself. Then you get it all together only to discover the deadbolt hits and it has to come out, adjustments made, etc etc etc. They really need to change the install process. Also the strike plate that comes with it is basically a piece of soda can. It’s so lightweight. Overall great item. 2 fobs and 4 keys plus additional keypad and lifetime warranty was a shock to me.

@RVTIPSANDTRAVELS 3 місяці тому

Unfortunately the install can be a little cumbersome. I won’t disagree, but they all assemble that way. Until they design a male and female plug system that locks together when screwing the pieces together we might be stuck with the current set up for a while.

@ryanabbott1104 3 місяці тому

@@RVTIPSANDTRAVELS since I was working alone the fix I came up with was I used a short board wrapped in a towel, then used two quick clamps with rubber jaws to clamp the exterior portion tight to the door so I could manipulate the inside half. Also to remedy the cheap strike plate I was able to get a very long brass strike plate at the hardware store that is 9” long, it was predrilled for 6 recessed/flush screws. Took a bit of measuring but that door/lock is rock solid now. Great content. Keep it up.

Aww bummer, I just noticed this company is embossing their website on the lock like the other. That is so stupid and tacky. As if anybody wouldn’t just google the brand and find it without this. Stuff like that looks aftermarket and I hate things that look aftermarket. It’s not a dealbreaker, but it doesn’t look clean and should be eliminated. I still also want to see a keyless option, touch the door handle and it unlocks when a fob is detected nearby, just like a car. Of course my other gripe is, why should we have to retrofit all of this? RV manufacturers should just include it.

Im not really ever approaching the door with my hands full so using the code is just as easy for me. I lose keys a lot too, so I don’t carry a remote because I’m sure I’ll lose that. I rarely use the remote because we hike and bike a lot, so bringing less is much easier for us. I’d also venture to guess that many folks are using the keypad a lot since so many overlays are cracking. I do appreciate your input and for watching our video.
