Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my RM refrigerator needs this latch?

If your fridge door won't stay closed during travel, opens unexpectedly while driving, or the latch mechanism is visibly cracked or broken, the K8011-05 is your replacement. Check your refrigerator model number (typically on the interior wall or back panel) to confirm it's an RM series unit.

Is this a difficult installation?

No. The K8011-05 is a direct replacement that mounts to your existing door frame using standard fasteners. Most RV owners can install it in under 15 minutes with basic hand tools. Your Dometic manual will have specific mounting instructions for your model year.

Will this latch work on all RM models?

The K8011-05 is designed for RM series refrigerators, but Dometic made several RM variants over the years. We recommend verifying your exact model number before ordering. Our expert support team can help confirm compatibility—contact us with your fridge model and serial number.
