Door locks 
 

-

 

The inside of the camper door has 2 red locking switches. The switch to the right locks the handles to both 
the interior and exterior of the door. It can be opened from the outside with the key, or from the inside with 
the handle after unlocking the red switch. The second switch (to the left) is an additional security bolt for 
in- transit travel with children, or to provide additional security. It utilizes an internal bolt to secure the door 
and will not allow the door to open until unlocked. It can also be opened from the outside with a key or by 
unlocking the red switch. Each lock on the exterior of the camper door utilizes a separate key (i.e. there are 
two keys for the door). 

 
 

 

 

 

Cabinet Drawers 

Drawers are similar to marine cabinetry which is designed to stay closed in transit. To open, simply lift slightly 
and pull. It is also designed to be lightweight; therefore in general, some amount of gentleness is required. 
 

 
Door & Bin Latches 

 
The camper door can be latched to remain open. This especially useful for windy days, or when used in 
conjunction with the screen door. 
 
 

 

 
Most of the bins have bullet latches (see above right) to assist in holding the compartment hatches open when 
loading / unloading the bins.
