Locking doors

[jmarch58]

Hey guys I want to get some sort of lock for the doors of my truck where should I mount them on the door to not mess up the internal working on a m923a2

You don't want to go with locking door handles?

 

[therooster2001]

Would the replacement locking ones work from the military guys.?

 

[FloridaAKM]

That is what they were designed for, in the color to match your truck! Problem solved!

Would the replacement locking ones work from the military guys.?

Yes they will fit. I just used one locking handle on the drivers door. The passenger side I just lock from the inside.

I've seen garage door handles used. Costs about $20 and looks fine.

Any 5/16 square handle will work. I've got garage door handles on mine. In all honesty, by the time I paid $33 for the handles & Allen screws, tried to paint the chrome, cut the too long shafts down to size, I wish I'd just paid the extra $30 and got the ones from TMG. Saved some money, and spent an extra hour or two fiddling with it.

I put deadlocks on mine, very secure indeed, and an easy fix,

I used TMG locks and they went on easy !

Where did you mount the deadbolt?

Just today I put a slide bolt that latches my driver's door from underneath. I drilled a big hole directly under the door in the edge of the cab and mounted it inside. The slider slides up into a hole in the bottom of the door. It is totally hidden unless you look for it and a I can add a padlock if needed. The passenger door is combat locked from the inside.

My truck has a soft top so I am not too concerned about security but every little bit helps.

I also used Those Military guys just for the driver's side. Mine did not fit properly. The screw mount holes did not line up and had to be drilled out slightly.

I bought a pair of Those Military Guys handles only installed driver side and the keyed battery switch not bad.

 

[jmarch58]

Oh there is a keyed battery switch any chance of pictures?

 

[jmarch58]

So the shafts on these handles were not long enough
