RV Push Lock
Secure and Convenient Cabinet Solutions
The RV Push Lock provides a simple push-to-lock, push-to-open function that prevents accidental cabinet openings on the road or water, combining safety with ease of use.
RV Push Lock Overview
The RV Push Lock is designed specifically for the demands of mobile environments. Unlike traditional cabinet locks, it uses a press-to-engage mechanism that keeps doors and drawers securely shut during travel. This prevents unwanted movement when vehicles encounter bumps, sharp turns, or rough waters.
Push-to-Lock, Push-to-Open Mechanism
A single press secures or releases the cabinet, reducing the risk of doors opening while in motion. Simple for end users and reliable in mobile environments.
Easy Installation & Replacement
Compatible with standard cutouts and furniture thicknesses, making it straightforward for OEM installations or aftermarket replacements.
Vibration-Resistant Design
Built to withstand bumps, vibrations, and uneven roads, ensuring cabinets remain securely closed throughout travel.
Multiple Finishes & Materials
Available in ABS, zinc alloy, or stainless steel, with surface finishes to match various RV and marine interiors, offering both durability and design flexibility.

Manufacturing & Quality Assurance
For RV Push Locks, buyers need confidence that the product can withstand heavy use and outdoor conditions. This section outlines the manufacturing process and quality checks that ensure consistency and reliability.
Manufacturing Process
Our locks are engineered for a straightforward, drop-in installation. Follow this simple 3-step guide to confirm compatibility and see how easy the process is.
Material Selection
High-strength hardened steel or alloy steel is sourced from certified suppliers. Each batch is tested for tensile strength and corrosion resistance before production.
Precision Machining
CNC machining ensures accurate dimensions of lock pins, shank diameters, and coupler interfaces. This minimizes tolerance errors and guarantees smooth operation across different hitch sizes.
Surface Treatment
Anti-corrosion coatings (zinc plating, black powder coating, or stainless finishing) are applied to protect against rust and harsh weather exposure.
Assembly & Lock Cylinder Integration
Each unit is fitted with keyed or push-to-lock cylinders, assembled in dust-controlled environments to prevent contamination.
Quality Assurance
Cycle Testing
Each lock model is tested for over 5,000 locking/unlocking cycles to verify long-term durability.Salt Spray Test
Surface coatings are tested for 72–96 hours in a salt spray chamber, simulating prolonged outdoor exposure.Keyway Reliability
Lock cylinders undergo repeated key insertion and torque tests to ensure consistent operation.Dimensional Checks
100% inspection for pin diameter and coupler fitment tolerance to ensure compatibility with standard 1-7/8”, 2”, and 2-5/16” trailer couplers.

How Push Lock Compare to Other RV Lock Types
Push Lock
(Compression Latches vs. Other Lock Types)
RV paddle locks are one of several lock types used in RVs, trailers, and utility vehicles. Choosing between paddle locks, cam locks, compression latches, and handle locks depends on the application, cutout design, and security requirements. Below is a side-by-side comparison for quick evaluation.
| Lock Type | Typical Use Case | Strengths | Limitations |
|---|---|---|---|
| Paddle Lock | RV entry doors, storage compartments, toolboxes | Flush fit design, easy operation, durable, weather-resistant | Slightly larger cutout required compared to cam locks |
| Cam Lock | Cabinets, mailboxes, light-duty panels | Compact size, low cost, easy to install | Limited strength, not ideal for high-security areas |
| Compression Latch | Utility panels, electrical/gas compartments | Tight sealing, vibration resistance, weatherproof | Higher cost, specific installation requirements |
| Handle Lock | RV baggage doors, larger hatches | Easy grip, convenient for frequent access | Bulkier design, may not fit flush applications |
| Hitch Lock | Trailers, towing security | Strong anti-theft protection for trailers | Dedicated use only, not suitable for doors or compartments |
