Default Common locks

A while ago I went to buy a new lock/latch for the storage box on the tongue of my car hauling trailer. The previous owner had lost the key and it was too expensive to have a locksmith make a new one from the lock. The owner of the RV Supply store I went to asked if I wanted to try keys from some of his replacement locks first. He claimed that there were only about 6 variations on the keys for these. I decided that I would just leave it open and not put anything of real value in it.

My point is that simply buying another set of lock assemblies for your storage compartments may not get you too much better security.
