I've used the Fiamma Safe-T-Door on my last two caravans and they are good.

I've used them since "they" entered my van by inserting a screwdriver in the keyhole and turning it with a mole wrench....lost

In a caravan accessory shop, you can sometimes find a replacement lock cylinder that takes the circular type of key often used on security devices. Another idea is to fit a domestic-type "Yale" rim latch.

But remember how fragile our outfits are, a big screwdriver, bit of brute force, and 'they' are in through door or window.

Hi Folks, Just a small warning about fitting the Fiamma security lock, it,s wise to fit a fairly large metal plate on the inside of the van, the thieves in this area have been ripping the whole unit from the van leaving a very large and expensive hole to repair.
