Hook locks are a type of mechanical deadlock that are separate from the factory
locking system installed by the manufacturer. These substantial hooks form a
deadlock into the frame or opposite door. This creates a very strong and durable locking mechanism independent from the van's central locking.
We will always fit a hook type deadlock if it is available for your model van.
Cab doors are typically standard lock cases and not hook lock cases.
Non current production model vans or less popular model vans are more likely
to be non hook type lock cases. If you specifically want hook locks, then it's best to check
if we have them available for your model van and which doors on your van they are available for.
We may offer High, Mid or Low deadlock positions for the side load door and rear barn
doors of your van, so the position of your locks may vary from those in our pictures.
We make every effort to show pictures (or videos) of the different lock positions available
on each specific make/ model and year variant van, but we can't always show every option
and positions can change over time as we respond to evolving attack methods!
If you have a specific preference of where your lock will go, then please check with us at
that the position you want for your van is available before you order.
Do you have any windows in the rear of your van?
Please also let us know if you have any windows (glass) in the side or rear doors as
the high position locks are often not compatible when there is a window in the panel.
T-Series: The T-Series key is a security dimple type key with different depth holes drilled into the flat surface of the key, the T-Series key is more resistant to lock picking and is stronger. In short, our T-Series locks are the better deadlocks and typically we only sell T-Series unless a customer specifically requests S-Series locks (be wary when price matching from us to another supplier who might just be offering the basic S-Series locks).
S-Series: The S-Series key is more like your traditional Yale type key with the key cuts on the edge of the key, although it is a controlled blank and not one that's available over the counter in this country. We can sell these locks to you if you prefer and you can save some money by having them, but it is of our opinion that you should consider the far more secure T-Series locks from us.
To Sum up, having either lock on your van will give you an extra layer of security, most van break in's are probably done in seconds rather than minutes by taking advantage of a manufacturers weak point. That weak point varies from one model van to another. It might be a thief using a skeleton key on your factory lock, twisting your factory lock with grips, putting a hole through the thin metal of your bodywork or as simple as tricking your van into unlocking itself by pulling the bottom of the door open! The point is that if a van thief knows that they can break into a particular model van in quickly and quietly then you leave your vehicle at risk by having no additional security fitted. They can simply pop it open just to look and see if there are any tools or anything of value in your van?
Thatcham Approval / Thatcham Accredited?
As of the 1st January 2019, no aftermarket van locks have Thatcham approval; as Thatcham removed the category in which these van deadlocks used to be categorised in. They are still the same great locks that had Thatcham accreditation but unfortunately they and no other van deadlocks have Thatcham approval now. Nothing has changed, you should still only purchase quality products from a trusted van security business; in the same way that you should always have done so! The message simply is to take advise on your van security from an expert business, purchase your van security products from an expert business and only have your van security products fitted by an expert business!
DIY Installation or Professional Installation?
We don't consider deadlocks to be a DIY fit product; as appropriate tools, skill and experience in cutting metal and working on motor vehicles is required. But if you have the skill and tools to complete the task then we can supply you with a full fitting kit and fitting instructions that are specifically made for your vehicle.
Sussex Installations offer a professional installation service by our experienced installers. We will take great care of your van with quality workmanship, our unique clean down process and application of rust prevention solution to any drilled metals. We are the van security specialists and have the knowledge, skills, experience and tools to carry out the installation to the highest standard.
