Protect Your Van From Theft; Exploring the Benefits of Adding Security Door Plates to Your Van

13 Jul 2023

 

As a tradesperson, the security of our vans is our top priority as our livelihood literally depends on it, with all of our tools and work materials being left potentially vulnerable in your van. Unfortunately, there is still a rising number of van break-ins occurring across the country resulting in downtime, a loss of money, broken vans and potentially losing customers. To ensure that your van is safe as it can be from would-be-thieves, one of the most practical solutions is to install a security door plate to your van.

Security door plates are sometimes known as lock protection plates, and they cover and protect your door handle and lock so thieves can’t get into your van. Here at Garrison Locks, we want to explore the benefits of adding security plates and how they can protect your van from theft. Garrison Locks are the longest established and most recognisable brand for van locks and security systems, stocking a wide range of products to keep your van safe and secure.

Acting as a Deterrent For Thieves

One of the biggest benefits of having a security door plate installed to your van is to provide a deterrent for thieves. If a thief decides that they want to target your van, they will be a lot less likely to decide to attempt to break into your van if they notice a security door plate. They are a highly visible deterrent, meaning that they are noticeable to potential thieves and will help to keep your van safe and protected. If a thief notices a van without a security door plate, they will be a lot more likely to try and target them. 

Minimise Any Weaknesses in Your Door and Handles Design

Having a security door plate installed to your van is to minimise any weaknesses in your doors handle or design. Security door plates like Armaplates completely encase the vulnerable area around your lock and door where thieves can puncture through, ensuring to provide you with a tough and sturdy area. They ensure that no one can drill or punch through your door, or get in using a screwdriver. Although our van doors are strong, they’re susceptible to attacks which is where security door plates can help. 

Covering Any Previous Damage

Security door plates can help to protect your vans by covering any previous damage and vulnerable areas of your vans door. If your vans door has been previously damaged, for example its been drilled or has a hole puncture in it, then most security door plates can actually completely cover and encase this area. This protects the previously damaged and vulnerable area, and hides it from future potential thieves.
