Secure Your Van, Tools & Livelihood

At AP Higgs Locksmiths, we understand the importance of keeping your van and tools secure.

Our mobile fitters will come to your home or workplace to install the appropriate lock, ensuring your vehicle is well-protected and giving you peace of mind.

Types of Van Security Locks We Install

Van security locks are specifically designed to provide enhanced protection for commercial vehicles. These locks are sturdier and more secure than standard options, making it harder for thieves to gain access.

Here are the different types of van security locks we offer:

  • Deadlocks:

Prevent the door from opening even if the standard lock is bypassed.

Provide an extra layer of security.

Operate independently from the vehicle’s existing locking system.

  • Slam Locks:

Automatically lock the door when it is closed.

Ideal for situations where you need to ensure the door is always locked.

Great for delivery drivers who make frequent stops.

  • Hook Locks:

Installed on the inside of the van door.

Engage a hook that locks onto the vehicle frame when the door is closed.

Adds a robust security layer, particularly effective against forced entry.

  • Padlocks:

Used as an additional security measure.

Can be attached to various points on the van door.

Available in keyed or combination variants for flexibility and ease of use.

    Why do I need Enhanced Van Security?

    Understanding Vehicle Vulnerabilities

    Vans and other commercial vehicles can be attractive targets for thieves for several reasons:

    • Valuable Contents: Vans often carry tools, equipment and merchandise, making them lucrative targets for theft.
    • Easy Access: Compared to other vehicles, vans have larger doors and windows that can be more easily pried open or smashed.
    • Lack of Security Features: Commercial vans may lack advanced security systems like alarms or immobilisers that are more common in personal vehicles.
    • High Resale Value: Certain models of vans, particularly those used for delivery or transport, have a high resale value due to their cargo capacity and durability.

    To mitigate these risks, van owners should take proactive measures to prevent theft, such as:

    • Parking in well-lit areas.
    • Installing security cameras.
    • Ensuring all doors and windows are locked when the van is unattended.

    Van Security: Shield Plates & Repair Plates Cardiff

    At AP Higgs Locksmiths, we provide a wide array of internal and external shielding solutions for your van.

    Our products significantly reduce the risk of bodywork punctures and handle spikes that can give thieves access to your vehicle's internal locking mechanisms, wiring looms and door latches.

    Comprehensive Shielding Solutions

    Our extensive range of shielding products is tailored to address vehicle-specific and attack-specific vulnerabilities. This includes protecting areas such as the spare wheel and catalytic converter, which are often targeted by thieves.

    External Shields

    External shields are designed to prevent bodywork punctures that can expose internal locking mechanisms and door latches. These shields are customised for each vehicle and door type, ensuring that they fit perfectly and provide maximum protection.

    Handle Shields

    Break-ins often occur when handles are spiked to access the internal mechanisms that unlock the doors. Our handle shields are specifically designed for each door type to mitigate this risk, making it significantly harder for thieves to use this method of attack.

    Benefits of Our Shielding Solutions

    • Vehicle-Specific Protection: Products tailored to fit the exact make and model of your van.
    • Enhanced Security: Reduces the risk of unauthorised access through bodywork punctures and handle spikes.
    • Comprehensive Coverage: Protects vulnerable areas, including the spare wheel and catalytic converter.
