For those with trailer or boxes, what type of handles do you have on your box doors. I am having a little custom 4 dog trailer with storage built and am trying to decide what style handles to put on. Was leaning towards paddle type locks or T or L handle types. I also plan to have a secondary latch that I will clip or even padlock if needed, so the handles don't have to have locks necassarily.
Currently I have L handles on my box and I am really liking them. I used to have a box that had paddle locks on it and had trouble with them freezing up during winter. I have never had T handles on a box but a lot of people use them on there boxes. I also had secondary latch put on mine and use brass quick snaps for extra security, my t handles also have key locks.
I just replaced all of the handles on my new-to-me topper with lockable T handles. They are easy to find and inexpensive if replacements are needed. Saftey clips are a must and I'll use padlocks as extra security in certain "situations." Regardless of the type of lock the keys are common and easliy duplicated.
