Not sure on a Bounder? Google Bargman L 300 and see if that is what you have. May be repairable.

Thanks "jjrbus"
I am pretty sure it is repairable but it is 25 yrs. old and looks like it.
I will check that out.

If it is a Bargman L300 then here is the info I got while researching a replacement... the info below is comments from multiple sources.
I've included a photo below of the inside of my door (the blue strip is the tarp that was over the MH when the photo was taken).

Note that the failure mode is that you get locked out. I was lucky, I had left a window unlocked and with a handy stepladder was able to pop out a screen, slide the window open and climb in.

The Bargman L300 was used extensively from the late 1970's through early 2000's.

The L300 cutout is 4 1/2” x 5 1/4”

Trimark # 33677-01-K (was 31158-01-K until they renumbered the products) will replace it.

The Bauer 20-2084 is marketed as a direct replacement. See https: // www.rvshop.com/Bargman-L300-Replacement-Lock-by-Bauer-_p_73883.html

The Bauer BP-12 is frequently is a better deal (price-wise). Bauer is at 866-682-2837.

The "with pin" is important - if your coach has two alignment pins protruding from the door and aligning with slots in the frame.

Another resource: "jack@pacificrvparts.com" is very helpful...

And the AP 013-257 supposedly has the same dimensions and will work. Don't know if it's a direct interchange or if it is a quality unit or if it is cheap junk.

I ended up removing and disassembling my L300, cleaning it, and the local RV shop gave me one that had been removed from a mid 1990s customer RV... I was able to make a frankenstein using parts from both and am still using it. (frankenstein: something assembled from spare parts)

But I intend to replace mine eventually.
I'll be watching this thread...

Thanks Mike,
And to everyone, Lots of help.
I will remove mine tomorrow as I can not use the MH for a while anyway.
I know I could replace the locks easy enough but the internals are another problem. I would like to make it new. Very good info for me to ponder.

Again, thanks to all..

On my '95 Bounder 34J, all the locks were TriMark. When I needed to replace the door and basement locks, I purchased direct from TriMark. They're easy to replace with a single Phillips screwdriver

[TwoGrizz]

Here are some pix.
I would like to replace the whole unit.
But we just went into penny pinching mode.
I will tinker with it and see if my MOJO works.
If not the numbers here in pix should help.

This lock set has already been repaired once. Look at the 4 screws on the post of the interior side (white plate). Originally, that was a pressed on fitting.

Thanks, I would not have known that.
I did see the screws...but.
So what are my options?
Replace the unit?

I replaced mine with RVLock. Minor modification because the new unit has a dead bolt. Great to have a keyless entry when going to the pool, bike ride, etc.

This one is 6 3/4 inch tall and 4 1/2 inch wide.
Trimark web site does not list an exact replacement, have called them but no return call yet.
I may have to turn salvage parts or just make this one work.

The outside handle looks like a Trimark 30-900. Inside is a little different, but I think it's just the handle that's straight instead of curved. Did you find the 30-900 at their website?

Yes, and that is it, thanks Tim.
Not sure I want to spend that much $$ right now.
With some cleaning and a little lube I have it working now.

I think it will hold up a little while longer.
Maybe until this Chinese Mess blows over.

Thanks again...
