    Yes they do. Sorry, guess I didn't actually answer that part. The locking handle can be ordered with a slide in lock.

    The mounts are stackable too. The only thing I don't like is that I need a key for each different lock. It would be nice to have both locks use the same key.

    Hadn't really thought about that... A flaw in my plan. Haha! Good thing our winters are fairly mild. In the mountains though, I may have to come up with something.

    I guess worst case, I can keep it in the cab if freezing is likely. Haha. Problem solved.

    Good call though.

    Got it... When freezing is likely, I will place the water can upside down on the mount. Water tends to freeze from top to bottom, so this shoule save me a bit.

    Not fool proof, but may work.
