Replacing Storage Door Handles

[Da Bud Man]

Has anyone ever replaced the "thumb type" storage handle/locks with the "baggage door" type?

It slightly bothers me that Jayco put the baggage door type on every storage door on our fiver, except for the door under the overhang and the outside kitchen door.

Wondering how much trouble it would be to replace them?

Perhaps that door doesn't have a lock on it because the propane tank is behind it? You don't want a lock on that one. It's easy enough to replace the other door latches. You can search Amazon for RV baggage door latches. I replaced some of mine with combo locks as I didn't want to chase down keys for my battery box, generator, or power cord. I never keep them locked but can at least close them without a key.

Not talking about propane doors on each side, I'm talking about the storage door under the master bedroom up front, and the outside kitchen door. The thumb locks have locks on them too, but it would look much better if all were uniform and the same, imo....
