Door lock upgrade

Any one found a good door lock replacement ? We are going to move our 5er to some acreage we own outside town after we get a cover built. Would like a better lock than the original.
I the real pros don't care what lock you have as they can get in. Just want to slow down the armatures. Some kind of keyless entry would be nice.

One of the better ones I think but 2reviews had trouble with the inside handle being plastic . CW's stock lock set has only about 200 possible codes, don't know if that's really a problem.
I may be creating a solution to a problem that really isn't a problem. The storage locks may be the real concern.
This is some land we are buying from DW's MOMs estate. There has been a little trespassing by druggies in the past but it was common knowledge Mom was in a nursing home. We torn down the old house & putting up a big shed roof/patio to keep our rig. We rent a lot over at Lake Fork now & just don't like rent.

For the most part RV's are not that secure unless you get into the big coaches. Easy to pick the locks or just force them if someone is determined. The keypad varieties remove the lock pick, but, introduce the electronic 'picks'. And the door is still weak, no matter what you use to activate the bolt. A pry bar or spreader will get you in one in a few seconds.

If I had to leave mine in storage I'd take the valuable stuff and rent a storage locker somewhere.
