Exterior door lock.

My Scamp door barley latches and I'm wondering if there is a clean looking lock that I can install exterior so things stay safe while I m away?

The problem is not the latch, but the door. If the latch doesn't work is means your camper wall is sagging. My camper had a problem with sag and the previous owner ended up installing a large steel L bracket to support the wall on the hinge side of the camper. You could also move the latch somewhat to chase the door as it slowly sags.

I would keep valuables in the TV since they are insured there unlike in the camper.

The previous owner of my baby totally hacked my scampe up installing an exterior padlock.

My Trillium had one of these installed on it. It works well - just remember to lock it vertically (without the hasp) at night when you're sleeping in it. Otherwise someone could lock you in!

I bought 2 of them and mounted a lock on each side so I could lock it closed or swing it the other way and lock it open.
