A Brand New RV Lock Failure
The Scenario in Surrey BC
Imagine this: a shiny, new RV trailer, only a couple of months old, and the door lock fails. Someone was stuck inside, unable to get out. The issue? Four screws inside the lock mechanism had caused it to jam completely. As soon as those screws were removed, part of the lock fell out—clearly, a defective lock from the start.
In this adventure, Mr. Locksmith tackled a unique challenge—a faulty lock on a brand-new RV that left someone trapped inside. Using a screwdriver passed through the window, we guided the trapped individual to unscrew the interior lock. After removing the final screws, the door was opened, and the customer was freed.
We’ll return the defective lock to the dealer and provided tips for a more reliable replacement. Whether it’s emergency RV lockouts or security upgrades, Mr. Locksmith is here to help!
The Problem-Solving Process Surrey BC
Here’s how we approached this unusual situation:
- Analyzing the Lock: We discovered the interior screws were misaligned, causing the lock to malfunction.
- Testing Access Points: With the RV keys in hand, we checked the side screws to see if the mechanism could be released from the outside.
- Step-by-Step Solutions: We disassembled the lock piece by piece, figuring out how to get the door open without causing damage.
While it took some creative thinking, we managed to open the door safely and free the trapped individual. The lock, however, was a total loss and required replacement.
