  • Electronic Locks Compatible with our Solitude?

    We want to replace our standard entry door key locks on our 2021 Solitude with keyless locks. We asked our dealership about it and they said they won't work with our RV which makes no sense.

    Has anyone had luck replacing their locks with electronic ones and was there much modification to the door to get it to work? (Let me know if I'm posting this incorrectly. New member.)​

    There's nothing special (or different) that would not allow upgrading the lock(s) on your Solitude. Many here have purchased RV Lock products. See https://www.rvlock.com/ and, if you give them a call, they will advise you on what will work with your RV.

    It's very simple to install--you can do it yourself. No need to go through the dealer IMO.

    I don't have any connection with RV Lock, but noted on their website they have a 25% off sale through 25 March.

      Your trailer probably uses all Bauer locks keyed alike. Bauer makes a nice electronic lock that you order to be keyed the same as your trailer.

        I have the Bauer NE Bluetooth lock and it works great!! I have transferred it with me on my last 3 rv’s. I really like being able to unlock from my phone or watch. Unfortunately since we had it prior to our Solitude it is not keyed the same, I have contemplated buying a new one but with the keypad, phone and watch to unlock it I can’t remember the last time I used a key on the door to unlock it. Very simple install!!

          Sandridge4 I guess the other option and possibly cheaper is to replace the non entry door locks. You can buy them keyed to match whatever number you need.
