Steel cam-action door latch is ideal for large, professional-use trailers and similar applications. Bushings and bearings prevent wear on moving parts. Double-action handle protects against in-transit jarring. 1-5/16" Pipe not included.Great product, just wished it came with instructions. No instructions where ever received, noting on the original manufactures website. So you guess, tack weld, fit into place, and check operation. Took more time than needed due to lack of instructions.
other than the instructions, This product is extreme heavy duty, and will last a lifetime of a trailer. The galvanizing is thick so corrosion is not something that will be an issue during its lifetime.
For my application I preloaded the welded assemblies with a door seal. Where the compression was 1/2 total thickness around the whole door. Works great and due to the length of Turning Arm it is a breeze for even the weakest person.
Another option I would like with this product is an Un-Coated version so it could be painted easier. With my application, I painted over the Galvanizing with the knowledge that the paint will chip off. But hey, a can of Rust-oleum is cheap and application is easy.
Note: these latches only work from the outside of the trailer. If you need to active, deactivate this latch from inside, then this one is not for you application.
Worked great to build a new door and replace an old rotten roll up door on a box truck
I have not yet opend the package, but I can tell you about the person I visited with when I ordered. She did an excellent job researching what I wanted. She was polite and easy to communicate with. She did not make me feel stupid when it was obvious I did not know what I wanted or needed. She helped me work through that process. I thank her for her help.

The cam latches where a great addition to my project.
The nicest, most helpful customer service ever! Products are high quality at a great price. Very thankful.
Used these latch kits on a couple old dry van trailers that needed new swing doors and they worked great! Unfortunately the lugs and keepers aren't the universal across all dry van trailers, so I had to grind off the old keepers on one of the trailers rather than just being able to reuse them. Would be awesome if you offered options to this kit with different lug variations
This company has the best customer service I have ever seen. I work in the service industry and etrailer is top notch. Outstanding.
I will only shop with them when it comes to trailer parts!

Looks and works like the day I installed it. Sits in the weather 100 of the time. Never even had to adjust it. I just use it with the confidence it will last forever.
This OEM equipment and is heavy duty.
The parts were perfect replacements for my 53' dry van trailer and are still working like new a year later. I was also very pleased with the price and especially the video instructions for all the parts that are contained.
I have ordered several items from etrailer. Items come quickly and are exactly as described. Way to go!
