Security locks with high-security can be a great addition to a van. They provide an extra layer of protection against theft and break-ins. They can be expensive to install, and difficult to replace if the key is lost.
Deadlocks
Deadlocks are an advanced security device that enhances the security of your vehicle. They provide an additional layer of security that is compatible with the factory locks. They are resistant to common break-in methods such as bumping or picking. They also serve as a visual deterrent, and can prevent criminals from targeting your vehicle in the first place, because of their strength and complexity.
Deadlocks are activated by placing a bolt in an attached bracket on the door's interior and body panel. The bolt is operated using an external key, creating another locking point that is harder for thieves. We have a range of deadlocks for the Ford Transit. These include hook locks and high-security versions with an anti-drilling and pick-cylinder.

This is ideal for couriers and other tradesmen that need to lock their van doors while they are working at the back. It also reduces the risk of them omitting to lock the doors of their van which could happen if they're busy or distracted.
A deadlock is a different kind of van security that functions differently than the slamlock. The reason is that a burglar would need to unlock the deadlock physically with a key or by turning a knob. They aren't able to simply slam it shut. This means that thieves will be more likely to be unable to get away with an easy theft, since they'll have to take the time and effort to accomplish this.
Anti-peel kits are a 3rd type of van safety. They safeguard the lock cylinder from a method called 'peeling.' This technique involves leveraging weight against the side door to open it. This can damage the door, allowing thieves to gain access to your toolboxes or other valuable items. The anti-peel kit is an easy and effective way to protect your vehicle from this kind of attack.
