This is a very handsome upgrade to our Airstream! Also customer service is top notch.

The product is visually appealing, but my purchase decision was driven by a hope for improved quality compared to what originally came with our rig. Unfortunately, I’m concerned that the lock may end up getting stuck just like the original.
Glen S.
Thought these were a great replacement, if not rather expensive.
Not even a month later and one of them is already broke. The lock cylinder won’t turn with the latch open or closed.
Thomas A.
These locks are great. They were easy to install and are more heavy duty than the standard locks with the added security of knowing that far fewer people will have access to the keys that work them. And, they look great
Claudia U.
I‘m impressed with your service. We had problems with one of the locks, we bought 2 for our 25RBQ. You send us 2 new ones, because the keys we had weren’t available anymore. You even fulfilled our wish of delayed mailing to accommodate our travel schedule. Service 5+ stars.
4 stars for the lock itself. It’s nice and sturdy, but has a weakness with the little pin on the latch, that’s where the first broke.
Richard F.
Worked out great perfect fit for OEM part.
Polished SS looks better than the OEM black plastic lock.
Richard F.
Worked as advertised in the video, EASY to install.

Bought this to replace the factory for our 2018 22FB Bambi Airstream as the lock to the "garage" or storage seized up. However this item does not work the lock catch on the rear side does not catch anything it is to short. I am hoping that I can use the original lock catch and use it on this new piece. When in the lock position it is about a 1/2 inch to short. Fortunatly I did not dispose of the original. Otherwise a nice looking addition.
Richard O.
Easy to install but latch doesn’t fit well into recepticle. It requires a little force to get the latch over the lock as it hangs up on the lock.
Dan H.
These new locks were easy enough to install. They look a whole lot better than the factory installed locks. They function as expected. Thanks.
Henry M.
The adjustment on these locks is very sensitive. If they are even slightly too tight (too much closure force) the exterior latch does not seat properly. Even with the tension set at bare minimum, I have two locks that just wont seat so will likely put back the old latches. As an aircraft mechanic used to working with parts like this, it appears the machining is not well done.
Steve C.
The main reason I bought these locks is to get a different key other than the one used on all other Airsteams. A great benefit is that these locks were very easy to install, and look fantastic. I recommend them completely.
Dan K.
Worst fitting locks for my Globetrotter. Followed your video for adjustment, spoke with your techs too. Nothing worked. Sending them back for refund. On the road out west and will do so when I arrive home. Great looking and appears well made, but DOES NOT work properly for $154.
Sharon E.
So glad to have these lock on our Airstream trailer. They are uniquely keyed and much more secure than the standard locks that are installed during production of the trailers.
Thomas S.
Great appearance and easy install.
Jose F.
Works great and looks a lot better than OEM
Mike O.
fits up great. Better than the junk that came with the Air S !
Gregory W.
Looks great. Very easy and quick install. Peace of mind knowing I no longer have 001 locks like everyone who hasn’t upgraded.
Rick L.
Look very good and easy to install.
Dallas P.
Obviously a quality product just by the look and feel of them. I can't say they function better than the OEM latches aside from the unique key code. It was easy to "install" each lock but I have found it very challenging to "fine tune." There are several adjustments which compensate for (1) length of pull, (2) tightness of latching , and (3) final position of the latch when locked down. These adjustments are temperamental at best, and frustrating at worst. I have them all properly latching (1) and (2), but the latches themselves will not lay flat in the closed position. The latch clasp stops short of lying flush against the surface of the latch body for some reason I cannot deduce and they look odd like that. They will still lock with the key. ,But they end up sticking out which doesn't look right and doesn't feel secure. To get the hasp to sit flush the latch ends up being too loose for my comfort level. In my second photo you can see one latch hasp is flush and the other one is sticking up.
Kevin K.
Great upgrade to keep your expensive items secure, the factory locksets have the same keys! Not very secure! These have about 40 variations and installation took 5 minutes, looks better too!
James C.
The central screw was just a bit too short. I could barely grasp it. The tab was built with too much bend in it. I had to put it in a vice & bend it out to get to close properly. Not well engineered in my opinion. I put on 6 of them & they were all the same. The old plastic ones functioned just fine.
Seamus R.
Awesome look, awesome quality, awesome security,. A bit pricy but, when I purchased 7 of these locking latches at once, the cost per unit was reduced and became much more reasonable. Very happy with outcome and peace of mind of knowing my exterior compartments are no longer keyed the same as half of the Airstreams on the road today. I would buy them again without any hesitation.
Paul S.
This replacement lock was super easy to install, makes the storage locker super secure, and it looks super clean. This one is a no brainer.
Daved L.
The replacement locks look nice, very shiny, and it's better knowing they're more secure. The installation is very easy, however... the nuts are not very well lock-washer secured, which means the nut will unscrew if not addressed with a good lock-washer, and I added Loctite to the threads to make certain.
Daniel P.
Terrific! I bought my trailer used and there were no keys for old, black latch. The stainless looks much classier on the Airstream and is a cinch to install.
Nicole M.
Everything we have purchased from Air Gear has been awesome! Great quality and fast shipping!
norma p.
The compression lock and its accompanying video made the replacement and installation easy. thank you!
Eric S.
Everything arrived as advertised. Quick service and high quality. Looking forward to replacing the other compartments on the Airstream.
Thanks!
Scott U.
Great new lock. Frankly, the old lock was terrible. But this new one seems more sturdy (and better looking). The actual locking mechanism is much smoother than the stock lock. Don't forget to keep your old hardware, as you might need the locking arm for this one to work correctly (I did). Would definitely purchase again
James P.
Not as easy to install as the videos indicate.
Need to make many adjustments for the appropriate fit.
Overall pleased but not the high quality I had expected.
Rodney S.
Bought the teal shower mat, needed to add something for free shipping, so added the compartment locks for our rear storage door. They are very nice, and a huge upgrade from the originals. They are very well made, fit perfectly and function so smooth. You'll forget the price as soon as you use them, glad we got them.
James P.
Do not fit exactly as the original one. "Lots" of adjustment needed.
Not what I expected
Tina A.
So easy to install. They look classy. But most of all, I love not having the same key as thousands of others.
Larry J.
These are really really nice quality. Glad we bought them. Easy to install all 6 of them.
On the third and last compartment the latch bar was not catching, and a few minutes of thinking about it, I recall somewhere that if the new latches aren't long enough, use the previous ones...and those work fine. I will reuse all of my longer latches for these new ones.
Thanks for selling these!
Douglas B.
Easy to install. Looks nice but more importantly, my storage is now significantly more secure! Theft from any one compartment would more than pay for all the locks. Evan though I store in a secure, climate controlled facility, one never knows…
Paul O.
The compartment lock upgrades are a significant improvement over the factory locks. They're much more substantial and look so much better. I truly feel my compartments are now secure. Installation was straightforward and very quick & simple. I changed 4 locks in less than 15 minutes. I truly wish I'd done the upgrade sooner. Love them!
David M B.
The new lock and handle were very easy to install. I strongly recommend the cha ge out - small cost for excellent peace of mind! David Q23
Jonathan E.
Our original equipment lock failed after 8 years. We could still insert the key but it would not turn. We upgraded all three of our locks with these and are very happy with them. They work better than the original equipment and the key only fits in it the correct way. They also look pretty good!
Edward G.
Placed order for 7 locks on 3/18/24. Did not receive until 4/4/2024. I did send a couple of emails to Airgear in which they were very responsive. I think the USPS Service was the problem. Locks look good and seem more durable than the black. You will find to reuse your old striker plates with new locks. Nice not to be keyed like everyone else.
Tony V.
Switched out mine on our 2023 International 28RBQ.
Easy installation, took all of 10 minutes.
Looks way better, great upgrade!!
Amy C.
Installed into Airstream Flying Cloud and looks great!
Blake D.
The only con is the price. But, you can't complain about the appearance or the ease of installment. Outstanding!!
Christopher G.
Fit perfect
Larry M.
I bought the chrome latches and the new lock system for the water fill, battery and shower compartments.
Everything was super easy to install and looks great. Just got back from a quick 3 day escape and absolutely loved the convenience of having a single key for all the exterior boots and doors..
Worth every penny!
David W.
Great looking and easy to install.
Samuel H.
Fantastic quality and customer service. A great addition to our Flying Cloud
Donald L.
As the camping world grows larger and camping sites often more remote, the security of gear gathered carefully over time seems more an issue. To have these good looking locks instead of the universal-key locks just makes sense. They look sharp on the rear hatch and my stuff is safely locked up when I'm off hiking.
Carolyn S N.
The 1st one was somewhat confusing to install but we figured it out and installed the 2nd one easily.
Oh and very pretty…
Anthony R.
Easy install, when installing, mine came with a different bolt to remove, that's ok, but when installing, you have to adjust the tightness, so the lock portion is flush, but unfortunately, the one latch does not sit as flush as the other side. Not sure if that is normal. They look nice.
JASON Y.
Nice looking. And functions as it should. But noticed operation of latch not as smooth as OEM.
Frank H.
As advertised. Maybe a little expensive but, guaranteed to fit your Airstream compartments. Nice to have one key that fits all. Easy installation.
Jerry P.
Easy to install, very stylish, and solid construction.
Kurt Z.
Easy to install after the first one. I installed 6 total locks and made all the adjustments in about 45 minutes. Locks look really good. I ended up having to use the locking arm from old locks because the arm that came with new locks was not long enough. I installed locks on a 2019 27’ FBT international with 3 lockers.
Jerry P.
Fit perfect, easy to install, much more secure with the keyed lock that every RVer doesn't have....just me. Well worth it especially with my Lithium batteries in that compartment.
Brian N.
Easy to install and they really upgraded the look.
George J.
I changed all 6 of the locks on my Flying Cloud. The change was easy to do. They look great! Very pleased with them. I would have changed them sooner, but Eleanor was in the shop for 2 months getting work done.
Lori G.
These locks are a necessary upgrade! They are sturdy and look great on the trailer! It is comforting to have one key for all the outdoor compartment locks (4), and to know that it is a unique key! The Air Gear service is the best, too! Responsive, helpful, and friendly!
Daniel D.
Wow! Amazing how much it changes the appearance. Super easy installation too!
William N.
Easy to install, looks great! Did all 6 in about 20 minutes! FYI my lock sets came with new gaskets too, some have said they had to use the old existing ones but not so on my new ones. Very pleased with the look and feel of them.
Karen V.
I like knowing that not everyone that owns an Airstream has the same key to the rear compartment that I do. They were easy to install, and have nice solid and secure feel to them. They also look much nicer than the stock locks.
Mark F.
I love the security of a lock not being keyed with every other Airstream lock not to mention it looks great!
Brian U.
Easy to install and looks great. Way more secure. I would definitely recommend.
joel k.
Was easy to install. Chrome classes up the storage doors. Glad to know no one else has the same key.
Had to use old latch piece, new one too small.
Peace of mind knowing our stuff we be safe .
Emilio C.
The locks look and function great.
Jim F.
These replacement locks are outstanding! Easy to install. The stainless finish looks great on a Airstream. Now everyone at a campsite won’t have a common access key to my storage bays!
