This is the electronic evolution of the same courier problem the mechanical T-series slamlock addresses: a multi-drop driver who cannot realistically remember to lock the van every single time they hop out with a parcel. Here the system integrates directly with the vehicle's own factory central locking. Unlock with the remote, get a short window to get in, and if the door isn't opened within that time it locks itself again automatically — the load area is never left sitting unlocked by accident.
The vehicle can't be left unlocked, but is no more secure than being locked by pressing the remote control.
It's no more secure than if it were locked by you pressing the remote control, it simply takes away the need to press the lock button. If you want to make your van more secure from an attack point of view, then you should add shielding or other security locks to your van instead of this electronic slamlocks or in addition to these electronic slamlocks.
This is a requirement for some courier companies; where drivers are making multiple drops and they run the risk of an opportunist stealing parcels from a vehicle that has been left unlocked for moments while they are delivering a parcel.

With a mechanical slamlock would have an additional lock fitted to each door and must put the slamlock key into the slamlock lock and turn it to pop the door open, with electronic slamlocks there is no extra lock on the door, you operate it by pressing the unlock button on your remote control and then using the standard door handle to open the door.
Yes all load area doors unlock at the same time when you press the unlock button on your remote control and then all load area doors will lock back up again when you shut the door.
Yes. For a customer who wants the convenience of remote-controlled locking plus stronger resistance to a direct attack, Stealth Shields and additional reinforcement plates can be fitted to help secure the factory locking from attacks and / or deadlocks can also be fitted.
