Bus and RV Door Locks,
Most Commercial Buses
come with a Dead bolt
or a
Air Operated Door & Lock
.
As good and strong as it is,...
It's still not as convenient as a RV styled lock mounted in your Door .
If you want to convert your Bus to a RV lock you need to be aware that
Buses have a
2" door thickness,
No standard RV Lock
is designed for this thickness..
However an
Automotive RV
Lock design will work and it's safer and stronger.
If you want to
purchase one of these below go here ...

operated Bus Door

This design is stronger and safer

how thick the door is .
It is
connected remotely with cables or rods as in your automobile. It does not matter how thick the door is,..

latch in many potential locations
