Question Installing Keyless Lock on a 2003 Dutch Star

Hello al! I am new to this forum and a new owner of a 2003 Dutch Star - before they started installing keyless entry systems.

Does anyone know or have installed keyless entry on a older model Dutch Star?

I am looking at the RVLock and not sure they would work - I've tried the "fit" questionnaire on the RVLock's website and nothing conclusive.

Any information would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks, MC and Carole

When I was looking for one at RV-Lock for a friend 3-4 years ago, they informed me that they didn't " currently " make any for Newmar. However, YouTubers "Endless RVing" installed a keyless one on their Bay star so you might watch it to see what they used.

Thank you Rev. Roy! Unfortunately, spoke with Trimark and sent them the photos they requested and we wouldn't be able to install a keyless because the door handle/lock aren't sandwiched on the inside but about six inches above the outside portion of the handle/lock.
The door has a schlage deadbolt - factory installed, and suggestion was we update the deadbolt so that would secure the RV. Of course, also installing security cameras.
Thank you for the feedback. Frustrating for us that the new Newmar Class A have keyless entry!
