The fiberglass recess was slotted to allow the door lock arm to swing up and out
of the way. It's hard to see the cut in the picture.

Subject: RE: door lock size requirement
My mind seems to be missing something, but the pic shows the pins in the door closed
position and the lock arm I imagine preventing
the pins from opening. With the lock arm recessed like it is in the picture, how
do you get it out of the way to open the door...seems like the arm will just
hit the side of the fiiberglass recess?
The drawing that others show in later posts show the lockset out side of the fiberglass
recess, but in that case the lock arm would need a 90 degree bend at
the end of it to be able to hit the back end of the geared pin arm. The lock set
in this case would only be able to rotate about 30 degrees to get out of the
way of the geared pin arm, any further rotation would make it hang up on the
fiberglass recess walls.
What am I missing here?

Yes, the same size lock works. The mag switch includes two locks and one of them
can be used for the door.

Does anyone know if the same size lock (5/8) used for the baggage door would also
work on the canopy doors? I don't know the if space between the exterior door
and the door rod requires a larger lock since I don't have the doors yet, just
a few extra 5/8 locks.
Thanks!
