Lock for coupling on caravan

In the ExplorOz Shop you'll find we sell a range of reputable TrailerLocks - people here may tell you of their experience with these as they are widely used.

I'm sure someone on this site sells these type of locks. Can be used either attached or not attached to a vehicle.

I just put a couple of metres of good quality chain through the wheel spokes and around the chassis with a brass lock, a lot of people also just pull the Break A Way plug out, can't tow the vans with out them.

I have the pictured locking device above .
It is a deterent for the opportunist thief only.
They can still get the van on a tilt tray so the best way I am told is a wheel clamp device.
It is a matter of how much security you need.

Hi John. I use this one. It's not cheap but is forged stainless.It only fits standard size couplings though. Regards,Bob.

Not much help to to you but generally locks only keep "honest" people from pinching your stuff!! and in my opinion all the devices thar are commercially available the would be professional thieves are aware of how to "short circuit" the many different types of anti theft devices available.

As for us, we use a bit of stainless steel chain & a stainless steel padlock (both a bit hard to cut) looped as mentioned above through the wheel & around the axle.

But if someone wants to pinch it bad enough I reckon that not much would stop the pricks. Cheers

Hi John
In reply to your question, I have a 6mtr boat parked permanately outside my house.
As far as my Insurance company is concerned they will only insure my boat if it has the type of lock pictured above.
I had to keep receipt and photos of it fitted to boat trailer. They stated that chains & padlocks or wheel clamps where not covered. I also chain the tow chains together just to make it more difficult.
If someone decides they need your Van more than you, it really doesn't matter what you do !!! That's why we have insurance.
Hope this helps you in your decision.
