This lock made me a huge headache, I was struggling to open it, I forgot the code. Well, long story short, I had to call locksmith tower hill to unlock it as I did not knew I can change the code from the outside. Gladly the locksmith made his job really fast and the price was great.

This is only partly true. Yes, you can change the code from outside. And Yes, there is a youtube showing how. BUT, you first have to know the current code that is programmed into the lock to reprogram it. The steps are, first enter the code that is currently programmed (this could be up to an 8 digit code, it's safer than your local ATM). Then reset the code to factory (which is the beginning code of every unit so if you ever forget the code, you can still fix it), Then program in new code that only you will know. This is far from being available on youtube. |

My new to me 179 came with a keyless lock pad, but once I realized that you can change the code FROM THE OUTSIDE if you know the manufacturer code (which is on YouTube) I took the batteries out and will be using the keys.

No wiring I encountered. Screws are 3/4 to 1". I siliconed around mounts just to secure. As I recall lights came with double sided tape.

Good Morning Mike. How long were the SS screws that you used. Do you think there is any wiring that high up. Thx

Thanks! IMHO, this is the reason to go with electronic locks - a matter of convenience. They do not make the door harder to pry open. |

I have installed the rvlock keyless entry on my pod. Really i just hate carrying keys. If i go swimming or whatever im doing, i dont want to worry about keys. Also we know there are only a few different keys, so theres a chance someone in the park has "your" keys. Its convenient to know if I go out, and my wife, daughter isnt there, she can still get back in when she returns. I also replaced the outside compartment locks with combicam locks. Not so much for security, but to make MY life easier. Once they come out with a finger print, or eyeball scanner, i'll probably get that so I don't need to remember the codes

2 on the slide side at each end of trailer, 1 on door side over dinette window, I have a 178. I used silicone, wall anchors and SS screws.

I was thinking about doing that. I installed three on the south side of my house 4 years ago because there wasn't any lights but it seemed to have a lot of traffic at night. They were 10 and they still work great.
Do you have any pictures of where you mounted them? How many did you install? Thanks Sean 2002 F150 2016 179 |
