You can put all the fancy locks on those compartment doors you want but if a thief or even a rowdy "teenager" wants in no lock is going to stop them. A simple screwdriver will pry anyone of these doors open in a couple seconds and with little or no noise.

The locks are not going to stop anyone who is determined to get in, but they will deter someone from taking a quick peek to see if there is anything worth stealing in the compartment. I'm also replacing the locks on my outside shower, and city water inlet, again this is just to gain access without having to carry a key. As far as State Parks go, I do just about all of my camping in the New York State System, and have never had a problem, I would think that it would be more of problem in a Private Park, where lots of residents are weekenders, and its easy to monitor the comings, goings, and habits of the campers.
