Can I key alike Keyless Lock and Mechanical Lock?

We refrain from keying alike any of our locks or their variations. However, we do provide the option to purchase keyed alike sets, which come in pairs for your convenience. https://www.latchit.org/shop

Ensuring safety and security is paramount in the design and implementation of RV door locks. One important practice to enhance security is to avoid key-alike configurations across multiple RV door locks. Here's why we do not key alike across our RV door locks:

  1. Increased Vulnerability: Key-alike configurations mean that all locks use the same key. If one key is lost or stolen, it compromises the security of all other locks sharing the same key. This increases the vulnerability of the entire RV and its contents.
  2. Widespread Access: When all locks are keyed alike, it becomes easier for unauthorized individuals to gain access to multiple RVs, increasing the risk of theft or unauthorized entry.
  3. Limited Control: Key-alike systems limit your ability to grant selective access to specific individuals. With different keys for each lock, you can provide access to specific compartments or areas of the RV to authorized individuals only.
  4. Diverse Security Levels: Different parts of an RV may require different security levels. For instance, the main entrance door might need a higher level of security compared to storage compartments. Unique keys for each lock allow you to tailor security accordingly.
  5. Security in Case of Compromise: In the event that one lock's security is compromised, such as a lock being picked or damaged, having separate keys for other locks ensures that the entire RV's security is not compromised.
  6. Customization and Convenience: Having different keys for each lock allows you to personalize the keychain, making it easier to identify which key corresponds to which lock, enhancing convenience and efficiency.
