Should RV Lock Cylinders Be Periodically Lubricated
Question:
Should I be lubing the key cylinders on my door locks? If so, with what and how often? Thanks.

Helpful Expert Reply:
You can certainly lubricate lock cylinders like what's used on the Global Link Baggage Door Slam Latch # 295-000015 you were looking at, but it's not really a required item that you need to put on your regular maintenance schedule. If at a certain point you feel like it's starting to getting harder to turn the key and engage the lock, this represents a good time to spray some air inside the cylinder to clean dust/debris out and use some WD-40 to lubricate the mechanism.
I have attached a short video review that you can check out as well.
