After owning my bus for a complete month, i finally managed to get the fuel tank full today (propane tank also). Anyway i have read about others losing fuel and would hate to have that happen to me, especially since my gauge does not work. Any leads or ideas on how to lock that door up that will also look decent? Any recommendations on where to find the hardware? All tips and help appreciated.

each kind of bus is different,find a lock shop that you can park your bus close to & get him to look & suggest something

Real easy to install a desk drawer type lock (rv lock ) just make sure the hole is in the proper location before drilling

My Dina bus has a really silly design on the fuel doors. There is a large door that opens to expose the entire fuel tank and filler. The large door has a lock. But, there is a little fiberglass door with no lock that can also be used to fuel the bus.

I never use the little door to fuel since it is a royal pain to get the cap off. I suppose I should just tie the little door shut to stop theft.
