by:

Ordered 3ea all keyed the same so I only need 1 key for all locks. Which makes unlocking hitch and trailer cover more convenient.



by:

I ordered 4 locks KEYED THE SAME they are all keyed different

Oh my goodness! I can see that it was our mistake and we will have this taken care of for you as soon as possible.



by:

This worked exactly as expected. Being a close fit reduces the chance of getting bolt cutters between the ends and the hitch. Key-alike option is great. Still happy.



by:

etrailer provided outstanding customer service to me. I thought the lock I received was defective and etrailer immediately sent a replacement. It turns out the original lock was fine, I just didn't know how to work it (the locking mechanism unscrews from the barrel, rather than just pulling off). I give both the lock and etrailer 5 stars.



by:

Couple latch lock works perfectly. I saw that some were complaining about the rubber cap getting in the way while unscrewing or screwing it on to lock. If you just open the cap and let it spin freely, it works just fine. I would recommend this product for wider tongue latches. I will buy another one if this ever wears out!!



by:

I’ve been using this lock on my bike rack every day for a year now. It’s been over a variety of terrain and all kinds is weather, hot, freezing and wet. No rust. No problems. It works flawlessly.



by:

I want them keyed alike. I invested in alot of locks in the past. You stopped supporting my key number. So the lock is good but the product support is not
If you still make the lock you should still make the key.



by: 03/07/2024

fills the need



by:

Great service and quick shipping. It is great to have all of my couplers keyed alike.



by:

Use this to keep the upper half of a t-bone bed extender from potential vandals or theft. works as well as its bigger hitch lock brother.



by:

Good quality product and keyed to match my hitch lock.



by:

it fits better than the other brands and knock-offs; I will only need to add one washer to take out the slack (slack makes this type of lock vulnerable to bolt cutters)

still working fine after a year



by:

Product works as decribed. Well made. Only thing I dont like is how the lock parts must be threaded together with the key in the lock. I'm concerned the rubber dust cover will be torn off by my keys getting in the way.

Item has held up well. Both I ordered still work as they should



by:

Works great



by:

none of the keys work properly very poor grade lock out of all the ones i purchased i had to refund the customer ,
Even the key broke off the plastic
Very disappointed in the product ,
The old style that turns off were much better with no issues , These are junk at best



by:

Replaces simple bail hasp that came with new trailer. Peace of mind while towing and while parked.

works great as trailer is safe.



by:

The product is great and works just as it should. I did have it keyed to match the hitch lock on the truck. Also give credit to etrailer for correcting an issue with the first set not being keyed alike. They were quick to response and sent a new one out immediately and now the issue is fixed. I would highly recommend the product and etrailer.



by:

Ordered four of these coupler locks keyed alike to secure loading ramps to an Aluma trailer. Can't say enough good things about Olivia who handled my order 108378866. She provided service I haven't experienced in years. Only reason for only 4 four stars, is one of the four locks arrived defective. After calling etrailer, they shipped a replacement right away.



by:

Bought multiple receiver locks and hitch locks, all keyed the same. Incredibly convenient to always use the same key no matter what vehicle or trailer you are using.



by:

By itself, it’s just ok. A step above “better than nothing.” There is a gap between the lock and the trailer. The gap is large enough to slip a cutting blade and easily cut through it. However, when combined with other locking devices, this is a good addition.



by:

I ordered a hitch coupler pin and a class V 5/8" hitch mount pin for a 2 1/2" receiver. I received both items and only 2 keys which only worked for the hitch coupler pin. There were no keys for the hitch mount coupler.I called etrailer.com and explained the situation. Noah was the customer service rep. that help me and he is going to send me a new hitch mount pin with keys and a return merchandise shipping label



by:

You can get these locks in different styles and sizes all keyed the same. BEST THING EVER. Having 1 key for multiple trailers and locks is the only way to go.



by:

I had lost the coupler pin lock from my Curt set I purchased from etrailer about a year ago. I made the mistake of leaving it on the tongue. Nick from etrailer helped me find a suitable replacement. Great customer service and good pricing makes this company a wonderful place to shop!



by:

I ordered the RC6 lock which has a 7/8" span to fit my 2-5/16" coupler on my trailer. When the lock came in, it was too short. Returned the lock and got item #7691 and it fit just right. Had great customer service with returning and ordering.



by:

These receiver locks work well, but they don't operate the way you expect they would. The key doesn't really unlock the system, but allows you to screw one part, the shaft, into the receiver with the key...without the key the unit just turns.I am not sure how much stronger this is and it is a bit of a PIA to put on and take off, but it's more secure than not using a lock.In the end, all these security bits and pieces work mostly to shunt would be opportunists away. A pro who wants to take your trailer, will be doing it no matter what you put on there.

  • Couple Lock Recommendation that Can be Keyed Alike
    I have a solution for you, but the Bulldog Coupler Lock part # BD580410 that you referenced can not be keyed alike. For a similar lock that can be keyed alike you would want our etrailer.com lock part # e98886. The usable span of this lock is 2 inches. For one with a 7/8 inch span you would want the # e98889. Or for 2-1/2 inches, part # e98887.

  • Needing Keyed Alike Hitch and Coupler Locks for 15 Trailers
    The etrailer branded hitch and coupler locks (see links) are all available keyed alike. Since this is a commercial application, you'll likely need locks for either a 2 or a 2-1/2 inch hitch. For a 2 inch lock, go with the # e98882 or for a 2-1/2 inch hitch, use # e98881. The etrailer brand coupler locks can also be had keyed alike the same way, such as # e98886 for a latch style coupler lock with a 2 inch span (many other width spans available) or the Fat Lip # e98893 for 1-7/8 or 2...

  • Coupler Lock for Atwood 8500 Pound A-Frame Coupler 80101
    For Atwood coupler 80101 a latch lock such as # e98886 will not work. You would need to use a coupler lock such as # FA86-0015-318. Or if you have coupler 80101 then what you could do is use a longer latch lock, # e98888, and put it vertically through the holes behind the latch.

    The etrailer.com Coupler Lock # e98886 and the Hitch Receiver Lock # e98882 you referenced can be keyed alike for your convenience. While different items, both are our locks and have the same locking cores and therefore can be keyed alike. To do this, select the Keyed Alike option from the drop-down menu beneath the cost information on the product pages for both items.

  • Comparing Different Types of Coupler Locks
    We have a variety of locks for your coupler, each with their own applications. If you have a fat lip coupler, I recommend the etrailer Trailer Coupler Lock - Flat Lip, part # e98897. This yellow lock can fit a 2" coupler and is an immediate deterrent as the color quickly grabs attention. The lock has a stem that reaches into the coupler and can't be wiggled free. If you don't have a fat lip coupler but still want a lock that reaches into the coupler, I recommend the EZ Lock Trailer Coupler...

    I am not sure what application you are using the detent pin for. Typically they are used on something like an umbrella or can be found on some bike or ski racks. We do not offer locking detent pins but we do have locking pins that may work well for you. One lock I recommend is part # e98888. This is a 1/4 double chrome finish and has a protective cap on the locking porting to keep dirt and moisture out. The pin on this lock is 3-3/8 inches long. For a lock that has a 2 inch span and...

  • Recommended Trailer Coupler Lock For 5 Wide Coupler
    The surround-type trailer coupler locks can only fit couplers that have a maximum width of 4-1/2". For a 5" wide coupler you will need to use a latch lock such as the Master Lock Trigger Style Coupler Lock for 1-7/8" and 2" Couplers # 605DAT or Trailer Coupler Lock # e98886

  • Coupler Lock Recommendations for Atwood Trailer Coupler # 80051
    For trailer coupler 80051 you could use a latch lock such as # e98886 or # 2847DAT. These will install at the latch and prevent it from being able to pull up. Another popular lock for this coupler is # 379DAT. This lock has a part that fits inside the coupler where the ball normally would be. This prevents someone from coupling up to the trailer. I have linked videos for all three of the locks above.

  • Can the Thule Camber 2 # TH9058 be Used on a 5th Wheel Trailer
    As much as I would love to help you find out a way to use the Thule Camber 2 # TH9058 for your application, it has not been tested and approved for use at the rear of a 5th wheel trailer. Since the trailer hitch on a 5th wheel (or even a travel trailer) sits further back from the rear axle than it does on a vehicle, there is a lot more stress which some bike racks cannot handle. The Roadway is one of them. For your application you can go with the Curt Clamp-On 3 Bike Rack # C18013. It...
