You Upgraded to Digital Locks — Your Fuel Cap Is Still Wide Open
You locked down your doors with digital locks — smart move. But you left the most expensive access point completely open. Your fuel cap has no lock, no door, and no protection.
The Irony of RV Security
- Entry door: Digital lock with keypad ✅
- Storage compartments: Keyed locks ✅
- Fuel cap: Completely exposed ❌
Why Mechanical Is Better for Fuel
- No batteries to die — works at -20°F and 120°F
- No electronics to corrode — exposed to diesel, salt, and water spray
- No WiFi needed — works everywhere
- Proven reliability — outlasts electronics in harsh conditions
The RV Fuel Vault: Completes Your Security
- Tamper-resistant keyed lock
- Covers the entire fuel filler neck
- 3/16" fiber-filled polymer — UV-stable, corrosion-proof
- Bolt-on in 8–15 minutes — easier than digital lock installation
- Starting at $99.95
