Use this low-profile hook-and-keeper door holder to keep your trailer door open while you're loading and unloading. Zinc-plated steel construction resists corrosion and lasts longer than plastic holders. Mounting screws not included.
The door latch is well made and works as intended.
The initial part I received was broken. I sent an email expressing concern and just received a generic response. It appears that my 1st email went to the wrong address. I received a follow up email and etrailer sent a replacement with no questions asked.
I replaced an existing door keeper and this one matched the holes perfectly. I don't know if it is alignment or the angle of the door but sometimes the hook does not want to drop right into the keeper.
The part works and I did get great support from etrailer once I got to the right person.
Holds door open during loading. Just what I wanted. Extra bonus, the moving part of the latch is spring loaded wo it stays flat when not in use and it does not rattle, or get in the way.
Excellent product. Quick delivery. Outstanding tracking site. I have a V-nose trailer so I had to do a simple modification to the hook in order to mount the latch to the trailer. Rivets were used to secure the hardware to the trailer. Excellent product and service.
item was a perfect replacement for the original plastic one on my horse trailer.
Perfect fit to replace my rusted 12 year old door hold. I had to bend the arm to match the bend in my OEM parts.
It was exactly the part I needed for my trailer. I didn’t need to drill new holes It fit perfectly. It was delivered in a timely fashion. Thanks etrailer. You are my go to every time.
The service was great, quick shipping and good communication. The hook and keeper are exactly what I was looking for.
Purchased as a replacement part. Very pleased with the quick delivery. Back in business
Great product. Great company...used it to hold outswinging shed door to 2x2 post..works great !!!
Received the trailer door hooks & keepers. Everything went on without a hitch. My entrance door and escape door will now stay open. The latches are built well and should last a long time. I placed clear stone guard under the hook so it will not mark the trailer sides while traveling down the road.

They work great. Have not had any problems.
Good and sturdy as I was hoping it would be. I painted it white to match siding on trailer where I installed it to make it more appealing. It replaced a plastic OEM type that cracked too easily. Yep it did what I wanted it to do.

there is nothing to go wrong with bracket,,,love it
This door stop really does the trick, good heavy duty metal construction. Replaces the cheap plastic one that was on the trailer in the first place. Would buy from again!

Great! Holds strong, very durable
These door latches are much more substantial than the cheap plastic variety that came as standard equipment on my Utility Trailer.

Now that a year has passed, the latches are holding-up just as good as the first day I installed them.
This is my first time ordering parts from online and I must say this was a great experience. I have had issues getting parts from other businesses in the past when picking up parts in person. So to have this run so smoothly is quite nice. The site was easy to navigate even for someone that is still new to computers. Everything is very well described and has photo's of the parts if there is a question. The cost for both parts I ordered were very nice I thought and then to top it off they showed up right on time like they claimed they would. The quality of the parts is top of the line and after this experience I can say for sure I will be coming back for any of the parts I need in the future. Thank you very much

the parts I ordered are still holding up and in working order. Very pleased with service and purchase still. i just havent had anything else brake lately to replace.
These door keepers are exactly what I ordered. They are cad plated and I expect them to last a long time. The hole pattern matches the old crazed plastic ones, so that will save me some time.

So far, they are working out just fine. I wish that you offered a little longer version though.
Super fast delivery! Excellent item (RV door catch)
Made of steel & very strong compared to the original plastic one that most RVs come with. Easy to install & looks NICE!

Still working great a year later!
Bought this to replace the original one that fell apart on my 24' Haulmark car hauler. This one is better built and has a little bit larger mounting bracket on the arm mount side, which also allowed me to anchor it better. The receiver end of my old one was still mounted on the door so I reused that part. Don't think this one will fall apart anytime soon.
I was looking for a product to keep the side door open, while I am loading-unloading my enclosed trailer. It perfectly meets my need on a very reasonable price. The only additional work I had with it to make it fit perfectly was to bend the latch , so it moves easily in the lock. I can definitely recommend this product.
I put this door hook and keeper on my horse trailer that has one heavy rear door in hopes that it would hold it open in the breezy conditions here. Unfortunately, the first time I tried it out, the wind took the trailer door and blew it completely open, crushing the keeper. I tried to pry it out with a screwdriver but it's pretty much unusable. It would probably work with a lighter, smaller door.
Rated good because, it looks to be cheaper then the stock one one my older trailer, and sad to say its made in China, had I knew that I would not have got it.

Dont use trailer much, its holding up just wish we would make this stuff in the USA
I replaced the plastic items that were OE on my race trailer with these. These are sturdy and work very well. I would recommend.

The door latches are still working great. They have had some rough treatment with no issues.
I bought two double wheel covers and they went right on without a fight.
I bought a couple of baggage door catches as the old were sun beaten and cracked. they went on using the same screw holes, perfect match. I bought a steel version of the old plastic hook and keeper door catch, which the sun had rotted. the bolt holes lined up tighter then the old holes which were stripped. The screws are not stripped now. I bought the Camco cam lock to replace the missing one on my heater door. It works like brand new. I haven't mounted the door lock yet.
thanks for the follow-up. kind of drug my feet but finally got my door bar lock and latch installed everything worked well. When the needs arise, I will be ordering from you again...
