Van Security Upgrades For the Ford Transit and Ford Transit Custom

Van owners can secure their belongings with a range of security upgrades. These include deadlocks with high-security, high-security locks and a van slam.

The Tibbe lock uses rotating discs, a sidebar and a locking mechanism to prevent intrusions. Each disc is positioned according to the angled cuts on the key blade. This system is extremely durable and resistant to picking.

High-security locks

The standard driver's door lock in the Ford Transit and Ford Transit Custom is vulnerable to attack by thieves who use a variety of methods to gain access. The thieves are able to pick or force the cylinder, and they can also attack the central locking system. A high-security lock will provide protection against these types of attacks and decrease the risk of theft. The Replock by TVL, a direct driver's-door lock replacement, is engineered to withstand these types of attacks. It's easy to install, and does not require drilling. This preserves the original mechanism setup. It can also be keyed to match other locks, and can be fitted with a Slamlock so that doors lock automatically every time they close and can only be opened with the security key.

Security locks with high-security can be a great addition to a van. They offer an additional layer of security against theft and break-ins. However they can be expensive to install and complicated to replace if you lose the key.

Deadlocks

Deadlocks are a high-tech security device that can significantly increase the security of a vehicle. They add an extra layer of security that works with the factory locks. They are resistant to common break-in methods such as picking or bumping. They also function as a visual deterrent, and can prevent criminals from targeting your van in the first place, because of their strength and complexity.

A deadlock operates by throwing the bolt into a receiving bracket that is attached to the door's internal and body panel. The bolt is operated by an external key, creating an additional locking point that is harder for thieves. We offer a variety of deadlocks that are compatible with the Ford Transit. These include hook locks and high-security versions that have an anti-drilling feature and a pick-cylinder. They are perfect for drivers who are owner-operators who need to be able to change their locks in their use of their vehicle for work.

The L4V Slamlock is another popular option. This is perfect for tradespeople and couriers who do not lock their vehicles manually. The lock locks automatically and only open with the security code. This prevents the theft of equipment or items. It is also decorated with an escutcheon made of plastic that serves as a visual deterrent to criminals.

In addition to the above, we also offer high-security transit drivers door locks, which protect against the popular method of "peel and steal" attack. Criminals will force the door and use pressure to peel off the skin which allows them to gain access to the vehicle's cargo area. The high-security driver's door lock for transit is specifically designed to stop this kind of attack. It's available for the cab doors as well as the rear doors.

Van slams

If you're a courier, or any other tradesperson who requires a van for your business then having the most effective security for your vehicle is crucial. If your tools and equipment get stolen, it can be a huge impact on your income. It is crucial to think about the different types and van security systems available.

A slamlock is one of the most well-known van security options for van security. It locks the door of your van automatically after you shut it. This is perfect for couriers or other tradesmen who must lock their van doors as they work at the back. It also decreases the chance of them omitting to lock the doors of their van, which can happen when they're busy or distracted.

A deadlock is a type of van security that functions differently than the slamlock. The reason is that a thief would have to open the deadlock physically with a key, or by turning the knob. They aren't able to simply slam it shut. This makes it difficult for thieves to steal fast as they will need to spend time and effort to do so.

Anti-peel kits are the third type of van security. They protect the lock cylinder against the method of 'peeling.' This technique involves leveraging weight against the side load door to open it. This could cause damage to the door, and also allow thieves to access your toolboxes as well as other valuable items. The anti-peel kit is an easy and effective way to protect your van against this type of attack.

All Locked Up Safe has experts who can inform you more about these options. The Key Lab can help you choose the most suitable option for your needs, and we can supply and fit the items for you. We can also fit shielding to your vehicle that will protect the internal locking mechanism and wiring looms from damage.

Driver's door locks

The standard driver's door lock on the Ford Transit and Ford Transit Custom is vulnerable to a variety of attacks that can allow thieves access to the vehicle. Upgrading to a high-security door lock is a great method to limit this risk. This upgrade is a straightforward replacement for the lock that was installed factory-wide, and it does not require drilling or changes. It also features anti-pick and antispin features, making it more difficult for criminals to defeat it.

The TVL patented Replock is a high security driver's doorlock that is of superior strength and resists forced rotational attacks. Its patented design includes an welded body made from high-grade stainless steel, and it can be keyed in conjunction with other locks on the vehicle to block the unauthorized access. The lock is also an attractive deterrent to thieves, so they may think twice about targeting the vehicle.


A deadlock is a popular van security option. It operates independently of the locking mechanism. It can be installed on the upper part of the door, thereby providing more security and an effective visual deterrent. It can also be paired with a hasp kit, which can add additional reinforcement to the door frame. It is a great option for tradespeople who often transport expensive equipment, since it can protect the contents from theft.

Other security enhancements include a slams lock which locks the doors automatically when closed and is only opened with a special key. This is particularly useful for couriers and delivery drivers who need to exit and enter their vans often throughout the day.

A hasp kit and an anti-drilling lock can also be accessories that can help secure Ford Transit. The anti-drill lock is highly efficient security measure designed to stop drill attacks. It is able to be mounted on any Ford vehicle. The kit comes with a range of components that can be utilized to create an effective van security system. A spinner can shield the pucklock from twisting attacks. It is a slipring that stops it from being twisted.
