Van Deadlocks & Van Security Fitted in Wrexham & North Wales

Why factory van security is often not enough

Vans are targeted for what is inside them, not for the vehicle itself. Factory locking is designed to a budget across an entire model range, and the common methods of getting past it are well known to the people using them. An additional, independent locking point changes the problem: it has to be defeated separately, in the open, and it costs time that an opportunist does not want to spend.

That is the honest case for van security. Nothing makes a van impossible to break into — what it does is make yours slower and louder to attack than the one parked next to it.

What it is really protecting

For most tradespeople the van itself is insured and replaceable. The tools are the problem. Replacing a full kit is expensive, the wait for parts is worse, and the days of work lost while it is sorted out rarely come back. A break-in that takes ten minutes can cost a fortnight.

Deadlocks and slam locks are worth considering if you are a tradesperson carrying tools between jobs, a builder, electrician, plumber or joiner, a delivery or courier driver, a mobile business working out of the vehicle, or a fleet operator securing several vans to the same standard.

What each upgrade looks like

Vans we already work on

Security fitting sits alongside the key, lock and vehicle-entry work we already do on vans. The two jobs below are from that side of the business, not security fittings, and the customers’ number plates are blurred.

Mobile fitting across North Wales, Cheshire and Shropshire

We fit on a mobile basis where practical, so the van does not have to sit at a workshop losing you a day’s work. Whether it is at home, at your premises or on site, it is worth a call to talk through what the vehicle needs and whether we can come to you.

We cover Wrexham, Chester, Oswestry, Shrewsbury, Mold, Ellesmere Port, Telford, Nantwich, Market Drayton and Gobowen, and the surrounding areas.
