Keypad lock options for a Tab 360 CS

I have a 2025 Tab 360 CS (and it's great!), but I have discovered the hard way that it's possible to close the door with the interior handle slightly raised, which locks you out of the camper. After doing this twice, I want to replace the door handle with a keypad model so if I lock myself out I can easily get back in again. Searching appears to indicate the RVLock won't fit a 360. Does anyone know of a different option I can install to replace the OEM lock?

    We found that the simple solution to finding ourselves locked out was to have at least two door keys kept outside the camper. I endeavor to keep one in my pocket when we leave the camper locked, often my wife will take her purse which contains a second key, and as a last resort we keep a third in the car.

    This is a good idea and what I'll be doing for the time being, but I wanted a more idiot-proof (where I'm the idiot) solution :)

    rvlack.com is absolutely amazing. You can also get a matching key for your storage door. Do you know that there are generic camp keys so other people can open your doors. Evidently, they did a test of this at uCamp one year. It’s so worth a couple hundred bucks to have a unique key, a lighted keypad to get in, as well as a key fob. And we had an issue with our keypad cover after 5 years, kind of getting junkie and they sent us a replacement to slip in. The old one was not that molded rubber it is now this was just like a little piece of plastic. We had trouble getting it on and so they just sent us a brand new whole lock. Their customer service is on point.

    I'm pretty sure that RVLock doesn't have a lockset for any of the T@Bs with the newer door.

    Yep, this is the problem. I'd be happy to buy a keypad if one fit the Tab 360 CS.
