2018 Thor ACE 29.3

Where is the best and cheapest place to buy keys for my camper

[16ACE27]

Ignition or door? And didn't you get 2 full sets when you bought it?

The key for the outside bins are the same on every camper in the world. If you ask anybody with a camper you can then go and have a key made just about anywhere.

As for the ignition key Any key shop should have the blank to make a new one. If you lost all keys I guess with the bin number ford would be able to help, or again a good lock smith.

If you are in need of the key to unlock the front engine hood call Thor.

I found you can get the hood keys via Amazon.

Convenient for us on the ignition key, no chip in it, they just used the correct Ford blank, voila!
Now have a hide a key for that never know!

I got a compartment key online, I think etrailer. I had heard they were all the same too, but since I couldn't get one made locally I googled the brand and numbers on they key and came up with that.

We got the door (regular and deadbolt) made at a ACE hardware, first one didnt have the blanks but the second one I went to did.

If we have plans that seem like there is a higher chance than normal of losing our keys I hide my door key in a compartment, and use a hide away to hide my compartment key. I have heard some people get a combination lock box and mount it to the frame somewhere to keep spares in.

The standard key # for the outside compartments is: CH751

These Combination Lock Boxes are a popular way to hide your keys when you are not able to carry.
I see the surfers at the beach use these to hang off their trailer hitch to securely store keys while they are playing in the waves

Thanks for the Amazon link. I ordered storage keys for our 2018 Ace 29.3.
Sort of scary that they are universal.
The original storage keys bent easily, and I snapped both off in outside storage locks. Luckily, the other half came out of one lock. The outside bar lock did not work out so well. We waited three months for RVOne to get a replacement lock from Thor.
