Deadlocks
Deadlocks are a high-tech security device that improves the security of your vehicle. They add a layer of security that works with the factory locks. They are resistant to the usual break-in methods such as bumping or picking. Due to their robustness and complexity, they can also be an effective deterrent to criminals.
A deadlock works by throwing a bolt into a receiving bracket, which is fitted to the internal door and body panel. The bolt is operated with an external key, creating another locking point that is harder for thieves. We offer a range of deadlocks that are different for the Ford Transit, from hook locks to high-security ones with an anti-drill and pick cylinder.

This means that thieves are much less likely to succeed in committing a quick theft, as they'll need to invest the time and effort do so.
Anti-peel kits are the third type of van security. They protect the lock cylinder from a method called 'peeling.' This technique involves using weight to open the door on the side. This could cause damage to the door and allow thieves to access your toolboxes and other important items.
