RecPro, Altor Locks Sign Partnership to Enhance RV Security

RecPro, a supplier of RV furniture and accessories, has partnered with Altor Locks, a manufacturer of coupler locks, to offer enhanced security solutions to RV owners. The ICON Trailer Lock is now available on RecPro’s website, enhancing protections against trailer theft.

Detective Randy Blancq of the Los Angeles Police Department highlighted the urgency of addressing trailer security in a blog post earlier this year, according to a press release. Blancq noted that trailers, unlike vehicles, are often simply towed away. He stressed the importance of using hitch locks and parking in secure areas as theft prevention strategies.

Larry Thomas, chief revenue officer at Altor Locks, expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration. “We are excited to partner with RecPro. They are a trusted source in one of Altor’s key markets, RV/Camping/Marine, and have built a great business, reputation, and e-commerce experience,” Thomas explained.

Awarded U.S. Patent 11,766,905 B2 in 2023, the ICON Trailer Lock is engineered to resist common burglary tools like angle grinders, drills, and saws. In rigorous testing, it withstood a concentrated attack by an angle grinder for over 90 minutes, outlasting conventional locks that can be compromised in under two minutes.

The lock is manufactured from over 20 pounds of high-quality cast steel, hardened to a Brinell hardness of 450, significantly tougher than the softer, low-carbon steel typically used in conventional locks. It also boasts a radially finned design, a high-security disc detainer lock core, and extreme weather-resistant seals, offering a locking solution that provides RV owners.

RecPro, located in Bristol, Indiana, has been a source of high-quality RV furniture and RV supplies since 2010. The company supplies aftermarket RV, trailer, and marine parts and accessories, serving OEMs and direct consumers.

Thomas further highlighted the benefits of enhanced RV security for RecPro’s customers: “Their customers appreciate quality and will have peace of mind knowing their prized possession is secure.”

Altor Lock is an American manufacturer specializing in high-security solutions designed to combat the vulnerabilities of conventional locks. The company also ensures that all its products are designed, assembled, and inspected by hand.
