Slam Latch for Camper Baggage Doors That Are 5/8" Thick
Question:
Im wanting to install slam latches on my camper baggage doors and not use the cam locks, but what I cant seem to find are any that will work with my door thickness. My doors are only 5/8 thick. Is there a option out there that will work with that thickness? Thanks

Expert Reply:
Although we do not have any that are designed for a door that thin you can still use the Global Link Locking Baggage Lock Actuator Set with Mounting Plate # GL34FR you were looking at. All you need to do is add a thin piece of wood to the inside of the door to get it into the range of 0.7" to 1.25" thick.
I attached an installation video below for your reference.
