Locks 4 Vans · Van Locks & Security
A classic key-operated deadlock that doubles up your van's security.
The L4V Deadlock from Locks 4 Vans adds an extra, independent locking point to a van door. Turning its high-security key throws a solid straight bolt into the opposing lock body. Because it's completely separate from the van's own locking, it stays locked even if the factory system is bypassed. Locks 4 Vans recommends it for cab doors.
Key Features
Adds a second, independent lock to the door, so a thief has to defeat two systems instead of one.
A straight bolt with a 20–50mm throw engages into the opposing lock body.
It's operated only by its own high-security key, so bypassing the van's electronics doesn't open it.
Locks 4 Vans recommends deadlocks for cab doors, with hook locks on the load doors.
A compact lock case removes around 60% less metal from the door than comparable locks, and it can go in several positions.
Available with T-series or S-series satin nickel-plated cylinders. T-series versions can be keyed alike with other L4V locks.
How It Works
The door shuts as normal.
The key throws a solid bolt into the opposing lock body.
The door is now held by the deadlock as well as the factory lock.
