Hi toastie. Yes, you have a Bargman H 20 door handle. A few parts are still available for that mechanism. Check out
Vintage Trailer Supply - Vintage travel trailer parts and supplies!
PS Don't allow just anyone to try to open that door. You know why, it TURNS but most people try to PULL and end up breaking it off.
Good luck...

H20-2 Parts
Right now, only the handle and the handle spring are available as replacement parts. We're hoping to track down and offer the bezels and the cylinders, too. But they're not available yet. They were used on very few makes of trailer so they're one of the rarest locks. Only the L-77 was used less.

1954 Locks
Hi Bill,
That's a pre-H20-2 lockset. The knob is a standard commercial grade aluminum exterior passage-type set. No cylinder. I can't vouch for your backset. That's the critical measurement. Measure from the center of the knob to the edge of the door and I'll see if I can spec something.
The deadbolt is probably a standard single cylinder RV deadbolt. Again, check the backset to be sure. When you buy a deadbolt, make sure it works on 1-5/8" thick doors. that's about what you have, if my memory is correct.
Good luck and post again if you need additional help.

I'd be watching eBay for an H-20, they come up every so often. I've seen them go for $300, but I got a spare for $75, so you never know. Sure seems like one of those parts that it would be really good to have a spare on hand.
cheers,
steve

Just a Q. Are these parts made of bronze? I know of a fantastic foundry that I have used when I need to recreate something. I found a part to a boat that was on a friend's yacht. I begged him to let me borrow it. I had a dozen pieces made. And honestly, I didn't feel it was that expensive...

Hey...Pbearsailor...
Steve, Could you take a minute and describe how the H-20 lock handle is "built" up and attached to the lock. I have the lock , the spring, pin and handle. It was missing the rod that goes from the handle to the lock so I made one up from 1/4 inch stock. Now at a loss as how to secure it at the lock end....is it drilled and pinned? Toasties pictures show three washer too. I'm not sure how they fit in there either. Can you help? Thanks.

I think this is the view you want. If not let me know.
I took the small panel off the inside of the door with the inner handle removed and this is how the rod is attached on the inside.
cheers,
steve

success replacing the lock?
Hi, we have a 1955 overlander and it has the Bargman H20-2. Does anyone have success replacing it with something else or using it just as a door handle and using something else as a lock?
