Van Security Upgrades For the Ford Transit and Ford Transit Custom

Van owners can improve their vans in order to secure their belongings. These include high-security locks, deadlocks and van slams.

The Tibbe lock uses rotating discs, a sidebar and a locking mechanism to prevent intrusions. Each disc is placed in accordance with the angled cuts of the key blade. This system is extremely rugged and resistant to picking.

The standard drivers door lock in the Ford Transit and Ford Transit Custom is vulnerable to attack from thieves who may employ a variety of methods to gain access. This includes picking or bending the cylinder or destroying the central locking system. A high-security lock can defend against these types of attacks, while reducing the possibility of theft. The Replock by TVL is a direct replacement for the driver's lock that's engineered to withstand these kinds of attacks. It's easy to install and doesn't require drilling, while preserving the original mechanism setup. It can be keyed to match any other lock and paired with the Slamlock which means that the doors will automatically lock when closed and will only be unlocked using the security code.

Security locks with high-security are a great option to add to your vehicle, offering an extra layer of protection against theft and break-ins. However they can be costly to install and complicated to replace in the event of losing the key.

Deadlocks

Deadlocks are a sophisticated security device that greatly improves the security of vehicles. They are an extra layer of security that works in conjunction with factory locks and are able to withstand common break-in methods such as bumping or picking. Because of their strength and complexity, they may also act as an effective deterrent to criminals.

A deadlock is activated by putting the bolt into a bracket that is mounted on the inside of the door and body panel. The bolt is operated by an external key that creates another locking point that's harder for thieves to overcome. We have a range of deadlocks that are compatible with the Ford Transit. These include hook locks as well as high-security models with an anti-drilling and pick-cylinder. These are particularly for owner-drivers who require the flexibility they require when it comes to using their vehicle for work.

Another popular option is the L4V Slamlock. This is perfect for tradespeople or couriers who forget to lock their vehicle manually. The slamlock locks automatically and only open with the security code. This stops theft of goods or equipment. It's also fronted with a plastic escutcheon, making it a strong visual deterrent to criminals.

In addition to the above, we also provide high-security transit drivers door locks which guard against the well-known "peel and steal" attacks. Criminals will crowbar the door open and then use pressure to peel off the skin and gain access to the cargo area of the vehicle. The high-security transit driver's door lock has been designed to stop this type of attack. It's available for doors to the cab, as well as the rear doors.

Van slams

If you're a tradesman, courier, or any other type of business that relies on a van to conduct their business, having the highest security for your vehicle is vital. You might lose your tools and equipment if they are stolen from your vehicle, and this can cause a major disruption to your livelihood. It's important that you consider the various types of van security systems that are available.

One of the most sought-after van security options is a slam lock which locks your van door as soon as it shuts. This is perfect for couriers or other tradesmen who need to secure their van doors when they work at the back. This also decreases the likelihood that they'll not lock the van door which could occur if they are distracted or busy.

Another type of van security is a deadlock, which is different from a slam lock. The reason for this is that a burglar would need to unlock the deadlock physically by using a key or by turning a knob. They aren't able to simply slam it shut. This means that thieves are more likely to be unable to succeed in committing the theft in a hurry, as they'll need to put in the time and effort accomplish this.

Another type of van security is an anti-peel system, that protects the lock's from being damaged by a technique known as peeling. This technique involves using weight against the side load door to open it. This could damage the door and allow thieves to gain access to your toolboxes and other valuable items. The anti-peel kits are a simple, yet effective method to protect against this type attack.

All Locked Up Safe has experts who can tell you more about these options. Our team can advise you on the best option for your needs, and we can supply and install the items for you. We can also install shielding on your van to guard the internal locking mechanisms and wiring looms.

Driver's door locks

The standard lock for the door of the driver on the Ford Transit and Ford Transit Custom is susceptible to numerous attacks that can allow thieves access to the vehicle. Upgrade to a high security door lock to reduce this vulnerability. This upgrade is a straightforward replacement for the lock that was installed factory-wide, and it does not require drilling or modification. It is anti-picking and anti-spining properties that make it harder for criminals.

The patented Replock by TVL is a high-security driver's door lock which offers superior strength and resistance to forced rotation attacks. The design is patent-pending and features the body of stainless steel that is welded that can be rekeyed to match other locks on the vehicle. The lock also acts as visual deterrence, so thieves may think twice before targeting the vehicle.

Another popular van security solution is a deadlock, which is independent of the locking mechanism of the manufacturer. This can be installed higher up in the door to provide additional security. It also serves as a visual deterrent. It can be paired with a kit of hasps, which reinforces the door frame. It is a good option for tradespeople who often transport expensive equipment, since it can protect the contents from theft.

A slams lock is another security feature that locks the doors automatically when they are closed. They can only open with a special lock. This is particularly beneficial for couriers and delivery drivers who need to exit and enter their vans frequently throughout the day.





Other items that can help secure a ford transit include an anti-drill lock as well as a hasp kit. The latter is a highly effective security measure that is designed to thwart drill attacks and can be easily installed on any ford vehicle. The kit contains a variety of components that can be used to create a van security system. For instance, a puck lock can be protected from twisting attacks by using spinners, which are the slip ring that keeps the lock from being bent off.
