All you can do is to hope to slow a thief down and locks from Amp lock will do that. I also use a strong Master Lock through hole in hitch latch.

We had our brand new Reflection broke into twice at a storage place, after only owning it for 60 days. First time they pushed open a window and climbed through the window and stole our electronics. So we bought the following window slide locks to help secure the windows.

We installed these too:

2nd time they broke in, the just use forced and broke the lock and stole nothing, just did damage. Needless to say, we aren't storing there anymore. If they want in, they will get in unfortunately.
Good luck!

We went with the Proven Industries king pin lock https://www.provenlocks.com/collecti...cts/model-pl-5
We previously had their hitch lock on our travel trailer. Both units are very stout, but in the end are just a deterrent.Steve & Katey

Gotta ask... are trailer thefts very common? I never worried about it before, but when I get my new 5th wheel it seems like cheap insurance. I’ll be storing mine on my in-laws lot and they would not know right away if it was gone.

We were forced to buy one almost identical to yours from the TA Truck Stop near where we broke down in Ohio and had to leave our Solitude there for a couple of nights. I use it often. One night two years ago in a Walmart parking lot a tow truck driver beat on the door to tell us we had to move or he would tow our Solitude away. I mentioned that I had a lock. His response was that they have no trouble cutting off the ones like mine all the time...
Maybe we can get one made from tool steel?Frank and Char + Maya, Newport, Michigan. 2016 Solitude 379FL/2006 F250 6.0 diesel w/dually conversion. 4th rain-sense roof vent, two ceiling fans, Kodiak disc brakes, Carlisle G 14-ply tires, Water Miser x2, final dump valve, water header tank, fridge cond fan switch, outside range exhaust, elec hot water anode, filtered drinking water, triple battery box,

As is often said...Locks are for honest people. Every lock can be picked or cut or hack sawed or torched or something to get them open. The idea is to be a deterrent so criminals look for an easier target. If a bad guy really wants your RV, there isn't an RV lock on the market that will stop them.
