An RV baggage compartment can use an end-mounted trigger latch, a flush-mounted trigger or an offset-mounted trigger. The outside shapes can look similar, but their mounting holes and overall lengths differ. Comparing these four manufacturer numbers helps identify a removed part before it is reinstalled.

Identify the trigger latch mounting form

These are manufacturer-listed measurements for the specific JR Products part numbers, not a guarantee that similarly mounted RV compartment doors use the same latch.

JR MPN Mount style Mounting-hole spacing Overall length
10935 End mount, Fleetwood-style 2 in on centre 4.20 in
10945 End mount 3 in on centre 3.34 in
11705 Flush mount 1.343 × 1.87 in pattern 3.75 in
11715 Offset mount 3 in on centre 3.21 in
Three-inch mounting holes do not mean interchangeable latches. Parts 10945 and 11715 both use holes 3 inches apart, but 10945 is end-mounted while 11715 is offset-mounted. The flush-mounted 11705 uses a different two-dimensional hole pattern of 1.343 × 1.87 inches.

What to inspect on the original hardware

  • Check the trigger's mounting face: end, flush and offset patterns mount differently.
  • Measure hole centres: 10935 uses 2 inches; 10945 and 11715 use 3 inches; 11705 has a rectangular 1.343 × 1.87-inch pattern.
  • Compare overall length: the four bodies are 4.20, 3.34, 3.75 and 3.21 inches, in that part-number order.
  • Check the operating linkage: compare the existing latch's trigger action, attachment, cable or rod connection and latch orientation.
  • Confirm the striker: the replacement must engage the original door hardware and release freely without forcing the panel.

Exact catalog part numbers

Each card leads to an exact UsedRVParts product listing. Review the item's stated condition and stock; viewing and pickup in Kelowna are by appointment.

To match another form of locking handle, compare T/L handles and cam lengths. For components that hold a compartment door open, visit the JR Products door-catch identification guide.
