Are There Slam Latches Available That Will Cover The Hole From A Cam Latch

Question:

Do you have a product such as the Global Link Locking Baggage Lock Actuator Set with Mounting Plate - Keyed to G391 - Qty 1 Item GL34FR That the face plate is longand Low enough to cover the prior hole if replacing a cam lock? can you get three locks keyed alike?

Hi John,

With how close cam locks have to sit to the edge of the compartment door in order to catch compared to how far away a slam latch has to sit to catch is going to prevent you from being able to cover the cam latch hole. You can either just leave the old cam locks in with them unlocked to avoid dealing with the hole or you can fill the hole with some gasket maker or non-sag-sealant # 344270341437-1.

The # GL34FR is already keyed to code G391 so each one you purchase would be keyed alike.
