East London, with hotspots around
Stratford, Ilford, Barking, and Romford.
If your van is your livelihood, investing in
Lock4Vans security upgrades is one of the best ways to protect your tools and business.
At
The Key Locksmith, we fit
Lock4Vans-approved systems built to stop
forced entry, door peeling, and spiking attacks.
We install
hook locks, deadlocks, slam locks, anti-peel kits, and
stainless-steel spike shields, all
professionally fitted on-site and fully guaranteed.
🔩 Van Security Upgrades We Install
- Hook Locks – Heavy-duty hooks that engage into the body frame, stopping peeling and crowbar entry.
- Deadlocks – Key-operated locks offering a strong secondary locking point — ideal for overnight parking.
- Slam Locks – Automatically engage when doors close — perfect for couriers and fleet vans.
- Anti-Peel Kits – Reinforce upper door edges to stop forced entry.

All parts are Lock4Vans-approved, installed by a DBS-checked, insured locksmith, and backed by a parts & labour guarantee.
🛡️ Stop Van Spiking in East London
“Van spiking” — where thieves drill through the panel near the handle — is one of the fastest-growing theft methods in London.
Our
Lock4Vans spike shields are designed to block this completely.
They:
- Prevent access to the internal lock system
- Reinforce and strengthen door panels
- Cover previous spiking damage neatly
- Deter repeat attacks
If your van’s already been spiked, we can cover, reinforce, and secure the area in one visit.
