An integral keyed lock ( 10 ) for a trailer trigger-lock coupler for use as an aftermarket kit or to be incorporated by an original equipment manufacturer. The coupler integral keyed lock ( 10 ) utilizes an actuating lever ( 20 ) that is configured to interface with and enclose a lock ( 52 ). The lock ( 52 ) is preferably keyed and includes an outward-extending plunger ( 54 ). The lock is disposed within the actuating lever, inside an enlarged portion ( 26 ) of one end. The plunger of the lock extends when actuated with a key and prevents rotational travel of the coupler trigger latch, thereby locking the trailer coupler until the plunger is retracted with the key.
