Van Security Lock Types

Van break-ins cost London tradespeople millions of pounds every year. Factory-fitted van locks are well known to thieves and can often be defeated in seconds. Our professional van lock fitting service adds layers of security that deter and resist break-in attempts, keeping your tools and cargo safe. See our full range of van locksmith services including lockouts and key replacement.

Slam Locks

Slam locks automatically lock when the door closes, eliminating the risk of forgetting to lock your van. Ideal for delivery drivers and tradespeople who open and close their doors frequently. Fitted to sliding doors for maximum convenience and security.

Deadlocks

Heavy-duty deadlocks fitted to rear and side doors provide a strong physical barrier against forced entry. We fit high-security deadlocks with hardened steel bolts that resist drilling, picking, and pulling attacks.

Hook Locks

Hook locks use a hooking bolt that grips around the striker plate, preventing the door from being forced or peeled open. Particularly effective on sliding doors where peel-back attacks are common on older van models.

Shield Guards

Metal shield guards fitted over the factory lock prevent thieves from drilling out the original lock barrel. A simple and effective addition that works alongside your existing locks and any new security locks.

Why Upgrade Your Van Security?

Deter Thieves

Visible security locks signal that your van is protected, making thieves move on to easier targets.

Lower Insurance

Many insurers offer reduced premiums for vans fitted with approved aftermarket security locks. View our price list for fitting costs.

Van Lock Fitting FAQ

Find answers to common questions about our locksmith services.

What types of van locks can you fit?
We fit all types of van security locks including slam locks for sliding doors, deadlocks for rear and side doors, hook locks that resist peel-back attacks, and shield guards that protect the factory lock from drilling. We stock locks from leading manufacturers including Locks4Vans, Van Vault, and Milenco.
How long does van lock fitting take?
A single lock typically takes 45-90 minutes to fit depending on the type. A full van security package (slam lock, deadlocks, and shield) can usually be completed in 3-4 hours. We can fit locks at your home, workplace, or on-site.
Will fitting locks void my van warranty?
No, professionally fitted aftermarket locks should not void your manufacturer warranty. We use industry-standard fitting methods and ensure all locks are installed to the manufacturer's specification without modifying any electrical systems.
What is the best lock to prevent van tool theft?
We recommend a combination of slam locks on sliding doors, deadlocks on rear doors, and a shield guard over the factory lock. This multi-layer approach addresses the most common attack methods: lock picking, drilling, and peel-back. Our locksmith will assess your van and recommend the best package.
