The Bauer Products RV Baggage Door Slam Latch, # BA57FR is designed to replace the Bauer Products RV Baggage Door Slam Latch BP-20.

It will also replace the Fastec (FIC) 30205.

Global Link BLL-40101-2006 and BLL-50101-2006.

If your latch that needs replaced has a matching part number to any of the above, this will be a direct replacement.

If you also need to replace the mounting plate, you will need the Global Link Mounting Plate for Baggage Door Slam Latch, # 295-000017.

please look at the current latch you have installed to identify a manufacturer and part number. If it is one the parts listed above, then the Bauer Products, # BA57FR is what you need. If you identify a different part number, let us know as we have several other options to select from. Please note the attached video for installation of slam latch. It is not the same part number as listed here but similar and should provide a great visual for installation as most all slam latches will install similarly.

If you are unable to identify a part number, no worries. Simply remove the current latch and measure the cutout. Let us know what the measurements are we can easily identify a valid replacement to fit that cutout.

We have Fastway Tube Key 315 as part #FA-KEY-315 and Global Link Flat key 315 as part #295-000041. We do not sell Trimark locks so we do not have their key TM219.

The Bauer Products RV Baggage Door Slam Latch #BA57FR will fit cut outs that measure 3-1/4" tall x 4" wide (which is a fairly standard measurement). If that is the size of your cut out then this slam latch will work for you. While the Bauer…

As long as the track the original rollers ride on is wide enough to accommodate the 1-1/16 inch width of the roller assembly, the 3 roller #37220565 hanger would work great for you.

I contacted MORryde and this does happen from time to time as the weight of the trailer can spread out the axles due to downward pressure on the springs/suspension. Odds are the 35" wheel base #MR27ZR will be the correct one for you, but they…
