[GCARC] Looking for recommendation for locksmith to put new locks on dad's old camper

[Tony Starr]

Mary,

In the world of RV camping, it is well known that there is very little "key
diversity"  across the industry, and almost none across most manufacturer's
product lines. For example, the storage compartment locks on just about
every camper or RV use a CH-751 cabinet lock key.  That's right, it's the
SAME KEY!  As far as door locks go, there is a little more diversity but
not much.  Most manufacturers will use the same key on every unit they
build, even year after year. As such, if you were to find another Scamp
owner, chances are he or she would have the same key.  And in many cases,
you can order a spare set from Camping World, so I would start with them.
They could at least steer you in the right direction.  Good luck with it.
