[QUOTE=According to theor FB page, they are supposed to introduce a replacement option for the TriMark locks at the end of the summer. But I seem to recall hearing the same thing last year too and it never happened. Maybe they are getting closer.[/QUOTE]


If they ever do get one on the market there’ll be a lot of us ordering them!! I hope someone posts a link and a “field report” one of these days.

I am using this RVLock V4 Keyless Entry Handle w/Integrated Keypad & Fob for my RV. The design is sleek, very masculine, if I may say so. First of all, it is very easy to install. Next, once the lock was put in place, the door doesn’t jam. Finally, it’s so small it actually fits inside my pocket. Also, the coating prevents the elements such as water, sunlight, and dust from degrading the lock itself. I really prefer this product because it still function even if it has a low battery.

The company doesn't make a replacement keyless entry lock for my door. I checked their website and it is not there. Hopefully they develop one and I will replace my current lock with it. I love the idea of one less key to carry around.

I perused the Trimark site and I seem to think there is a way to install a keyless system for their line of products.

https://trimarkcorp.com/en/zPlatform...&categoryid=89
This link shows one of the keypads available. An actuator would have to be installed I believe.

Follow the "specifications" tab and there is a brochure that explains the "e-ASK system" and what it is compatible with. One of the "entrance door applications" appears to show what the OP has. I am sure this would not come cheap.

I hope this helps.

Would be nice to know what your RV was.

Late model Vegas/Axis (‘17-present) has this one.
No current keyless option available.
And the biggest complaint is that 2 different keys are needed for entry.

There is little or no reason to use two keys unless it just makes you feel better. The lower key is pretty standard and any serious thief is likely to have one. It’s the upper, deadbolt lock that gives you whatever security there is. Or at least that’s what our service/PDI guy told us. We typically use both when the RV is stored because….why not? But when we are camping we only use the deadbolt.

My 2022 Vegas doesn't look like that at all.

Latchit is supposed to be introducing a keyless lock that replaces the standard 2 key Trimark lock this year. I am on there contact list when its available. A friend of mine has one of their locks on his TT and is very impressed with the quality and service he has received from them, even up here in Canada.

2022 Vegas 24.1 lock handle pictures for reference. I am unaware of a keyless handle for this type lock as of now.

My 2022 Quantum Sprinter has that lock also. If you find a keyless replacement please post. I would love to swap mine out also!

Hoping to see my 2019 Vegas 24.1 before Christmas,,,,, any word on this possible replacement yet? I've done all the searches and this is the only hope for a keyless replacement I have found.

Thanks

$87 right now.

It can also work with rfid and echo/Google.

I do not have one on the door.

It'll go on one of the 24.1 bins.

My keyless has worked well going on 6 years

The locking features are handy since you have two choices

Compartments or door and compartments

You can get just the door which i think was the cost mentioned

A lot of lock problems have been due to lack of lubrication

I lubricated our coach door latch, as it was seeming to be sticky some.
Six months later, while on a camping trip, the latch plunger breaks, at the weak point on the part made out of zinc.
So, for closer to $200, I replaced the entire 2 key unit from TriMark, exact replacement, only the latch plunger is made out of steel and should last.

Thank you for the pictures.

We will have a lock replacement for that lock style at the beginning of next year.

I think RV Lock will wait till the Trimark lock is out of production before they make a replacement for it. Years.
