The length of the locks varies, the best way is to measure each existing lock.

Excellent post, Larry. Thanks.

People want to replace the door lock for a feeling of security I suppose. But they ignore the easy-to-open cab doors.

I have no illusions of an electronic lock providing more security, a RV is pretty trivial for a determined person to break into, as is any vehicle.

I would do the upgrade to have remote unlock and lock ability without a key.

Hi Don;  My only interest is to have a functioning door lock.  The Bargeman design is getting older, with no apparent source of parts.  Might as well go for the keyless feature.  The Lock fitment guide referenced above, dumps me out with a comment that 'We don't have a lock that fits your door'.  So cut and fit adaptor plates will have to do.
    The cab doors on a '99 likely can be opened easily with a Slim Jim.  My cats walk on the switches anyway.  The doors can have a ratcheting strap between handles to improve security. Hopefully I won't have anyone trying to 'save my cats from the heat'  breaking in.   RonB
