Anti-Theft devices for RV/Trailers- advice on anti-pick devices

[Tulecreeper]

All our campgrounds use the standard Yale lock supplied by the Forest Service, similar to the one you posted but without the barrel key. I replaced 4 broken locks last year. Three had broken or cut hasps, and the other one just flat fell apart in my hand. Put the key in it and turned and the whole lock cylinder came out of the housing and the hasp just fell off the other end.

That's a new one.

Most locks are rather simple to pick. Many years ago I bought one off Amazon and learned to use it in a few hours practice. Today the industry has electronic lock pick devices, if it takes a blade key the pick will open it, won't work with barrel keys.
My original intent was a very old brass railroad lock my FIL had, but no key. It opened in about 1 minute.

Locks are only designed to keep honest people honest but the harder they are to break will keep more people honest and you with your possessions. I just bought a new trailer and sprung for the Proven industries coupler lock. It’s a beast and not cheap but gives me peace of mind when leaving camp.

I have seen high security and "Cut proof" locks. Takes less than a minute to cut through them with the tools I have (Perfectly legit tools used for other reasons) .

Tracking devices like air-tags.. those can help with recovery.

Lost another one this year, but I blame that on the LADWP. They need access to some of the campgrounds during the winter to check their systems and such. They apparently think nothing of driving their big-a$$ed Sno-Cat right over the campground gates. Granted the gates were covered with 6' or 7' of snow, but that didn't keep them from getting crushed by the Sno-cat. Apparently on one gate, the lock was the weak point, not the chain.
I begin to understand the disdain that the residents of Inyo and Mono counties express for the residents of LA county.

Just don't keep stuff that is really expensive or sentimental in the rv and keep it insured for full replacement cost. Then do the anti theft stuff cause the meth heads stealing & useing RV's as a lab for all thier stupidity are genius at getting your stuff.
