Keys for storage areas are very generic. I probably have your key

Hmm, not so sure I buy into that. Our keys are Bauer and there are lots of different key codes for Bauer keys. I'm not really concerned so I've never done any research.

So is mine, Bauer 708. I opened my neighbor's trailer the other day; a Solitude 6 months later off the line than mine.
 
They can have what they want in my front TT storage except my 2000W inverter that they'd have to work pretty hard to remove. My ins deductible wouldn't even cover the crap I have in there. Plus I don't have a jacked up baggage door from some nothead trying to get in to see what looks good enough to pawn. A tote with some misc water stuff, a couple of chock's, maybe a Weber BBQ and some other non essential stuff. Go for it.

^^^^Agree. That’s my theory too.

Well if that makes you do all that wondering maybe you should think a little more. you are talking about 2 completely different scenarios. I would hope your house has a better door than your camper and you have more valuables in your house. Maybe not. As for my camper, I don't have anything in the storage compartments that would cost more than replacing the door and repairing the damage done by someone breaking into the compartment.

Yup. My thoughts exactly.

For me, I can't see making it that easy for someone. I would rather force them to conscientiously have to break their way in to take something vs grab it because it's easily accessible. 4 LFP batteries, water softener, filters, hoses, 30 amp cords, etc.. Nope, make them work for it and replace the door or lock in addition to replacing batteries or whatever else is my theory. Same with my vehicles, keep them locked and keep people honest or force them to break a window rather than just pop in and grab whatever might be easily accessible. Learned this years ago when I was going to school and parked my car outside the apartment. The vehicles (including mine) that were unlocked lost their radios and speaker boxes, etc.. The cars that were locked were left alone; only opportunistic thieves at that apartment complex. :)
 
Couple years ago in a campground.. A meth head was caught going around at night opening cargo doors on the RVs in there. Making noise that woke up the ppl inside the RV.. That fellow was detained and removed by the local LEO
