If I was certain that there was far more than a dozen or so different keys for our deadbolts I’d be happy - but I’m willing to bet that, out of a dozen or so trailers, one of their dozen keys will fit at least two trailers. The simple fact that each of those dozen keys has been provided with the means to open many of the dozen handle locks (pass key mode) suggests that there is already a common element in their design. A blind deadbolt, or one that has a supplemental interior lock to defeat the external key lock (—-as do all of my home deadbolts) would be far superior. Lacking that latter feature on my trailer deadbolt, my goal is to find a way to provide it by simply immobilizing the interior thumb latch.
