Door locks can be pried open. I went to the chains when one night in Montgomery AL I heard a noise at about 0200. I looked out of the sleeper and saw a guy with about a 2 foot screwdriver getting ready to pry open the drivers side door. I reached out and blew the air horn and he took off but the next day I investigated and bought the chain and felt a lot more secure. Then I also rigged up a long cord from the air horn cord into the sleeper so I could let the horn blow in case of an attempted breakin or an emergency.
