Compartment doors broken into.

This past weekend we returned to our 5thwheel to find all of the compartment doors had been pulled open. After years of never having any problems we have finally been broken. Luckily the thief left behind many valuable items including money left in plain sight and only took a pair of Danner hunting boots.
The way the compartment doors are constructed he simply opened the latch on one side and pulled that corner open until the "lock" bent the sealing lip of the frame an popped open.
I think that if there were locks on each corner he would have been stopped or been forced to pry the door open with a pry bar of some sort so I'm looking into replacing all of the CH751 locks & latches with a different style lock.
