Lock Problem (need help!)

Hi! First post, thanks for having me.

I have just purchased a vintage airstream from the 60s and the owner didn’t have a key. I took out the lock and the locksmith could not get the part out that he needed to make a new key. He basically said he can’t help me and might have to find a new lock solution.

I would like to add a safer more secure lock for the airstream to prevent break-ins. Anyone have ideas on where to look for a replacement lock or find a new solution, maybe an electric key pad lock or go with an intense master lock solution.

Open to all ideas!
