Locks the door automatically the moment it closes, so it's never left open by mistake.
A slamlock locks the door automatically as soon as it's shut, with nothing for the driver to remember. After that it only opens with its high-security key. That makes it ideal for tradespeople going in and out for tools, and for couriers and multi-drop drivers. And because each slamlock opens only its own door, you're not unlocking the whole van every time you grab something from the back.
Key Features
The door locks itself the moment it's shut, so it can't be left unlocked by accident.
Once locked, the door opens only with the slamlock's high-security key.
Unlike central locking, which can unlock every door, a slamlock opens only the door you choose.
Ideal for trades, couriers, parcel and multi-drop work, where the van is opened many times a day.
Uses the L4V T-series lock, which is Thatcham accredited in both slamlock and deadlock versions.
It can be keyed alike with other L4V locks, so one key covers the whole van.
How It Works
The slamlock latches and locks automatically.
There's no key to turn and nothing to forget.
Only the high-security key opens that door, and only that door.

FAQ
The door locks as soon as it's closed, so always keep the slamlock key with you. That's the trade-off for never leaving the van open by accident.
Your fob still operates the van's own locks, but a door fitted with a slamlock also needs the slamlock key to open.
Anyone in and out of the van all day: trades, couriers, parcel and multi-drop drivers.
