Vanlocker Review

Customer: “Having received the attentions of a person determined to ventilate my back door with a holesaw, then proceed to ‘liberate’ the contents, I was grateful to fall upon ‘Vanlocker’. A local firm for me, a brief chat with Steve, the proprietor, explaining what I thought (the internet can be off the mark) his advice giving me an alternative, an appointment AT MY PLACE OF WORK and all works completed by Ben. Polite, decent, quality work. No problem to pay for this peace of mind. OK, nobody wants to go through this, but the reassurance it gives the workaday tradesperson is great. Vanlocker? Would thoroughly recommend, although I never wanted to see them in the first place!”

Vanlocker Review

Customer: “Ben who fitted the locks was great, very competant at fitting the locks and knowledgable about van security in general. Locks are very neat and function easily and smoothly, very happy with those. Service from the office was great, booked in promptly and all happened within the quick and agreed timescale. And I’ve been given a 2 year warranty on the locks and feel very confident that I could go back to Vanlocker to get resolved should there be a problem which is nice to know and wasn’t expected. Top job.”

Customer: “Really excellent customer service. We had to rearrange our fitting 3 times and only got a helpful and patient response. The fitting was efficient and effective with Ben being both personable and kind. We now use our hook locks rather than the central locking. I recommend these folks without reservation and would happily use them again. Thank you Vanlocker.”

Customer: “As a business we’ve been dealing with Vanlocker for many years now & always find the whole process from initial work order to completion of installation seamless. Once booked, continuation & schedule updates are sent via text to the fleet operator as a reminder to have the relevant vehicle ready for access on the day of installation. Schedules have always been kept & installations flawless. Ben is a great installer as is Steve & work area is always prepped prior to installation & cleaned down after installation before handover. Keep up the good work….. and we’ll keep giving you business! M.M (Director) Medway, Kent.”

❓FAQ Section

Can deadlocks stop van theft?

No lock guarantees total protection, but deadlocks significantly increase the difficulty and time needed for criminals to gain access.

Do deadlocks affect central locking?

No. Deadlocks operate separately from the factory locking system.

What is the best security for a Ford Transit?

A combination of:

  • deadlocks
  • anti-peel kits
  • shield plates
  • internal tool storage
  • GPS tracking

Can thieves steal keyless vans?

Yes. Relay theft devices can amplify key signals from inside homes. Faraday pouches help block these attacks.

Do you offer mobile fitting?

Yes — VAULTA Security provides mobile installation across Newcastle and the North East.
