Van Locks and Security by Drummond

Deadlocks are secondary mechanical locks that are fitted to the load area doors and work in conjunction with the factory fitted lock. The best way to describe how they work is to compare them with the back door of a house. Normally when you come in from your garden you would have to physically lock the door with a key, this is exactly the same with the deadlocks that we fit.

At Drummond Security we feel that this is the best way of securing the load area of a van, as once the lock is fitted the door is protected by two locks instead of just the one factory fitted lock. The only disadvantage of a deadlock is that the van driver needs to actively lock the door, if they forget to lock it the lock is rendered useless.

We normally recommend securing the load area only as most vans have a bulkhead that separates the cab area from the load area so there is no real need for the driver and passenger doors to have additional locks.

Please note that we always fit the hook lock variant to the vast majority vans. The only time we use the older deadbolt version is when the vans body styling won't allow us to.

Most criminals see van thefts as an easy, victimless target that is covered by insurance, when in reality a lot of policies don't cover tools in transit, and even those that, do it is usually for a fraction of the value of the tools that are taken. Once you factor in the loss of earnings and inevitable repair costs to the van door you are usually looking at a bill thousands of pounds.
