FAQs

Can you fit locks and racking in one visit?
Yes — we routinely combine both in a single appointment to minimise downtime.

Which Transit Connect models do you cover?
All generations and trims (SWB L1 / LWB L2), crew variants.

Are parts shared with other Ford vans?
Some systems cross over, but we always spec from your reg/VIN for correct parts and brackets.

Deadlocks or slamlocks — which is best for me?
Deadlocks add a separate, manual deadbolt for parked security. Slamlocks auto‑lock on close, ideal for multi‑drop routes. Many couriers run slamlocks on the side door and hook deadlocks on the rear.

Will deadlocks affect central locking?
No — they’re independent of the factory system and add a mechanical layer.

Can you code new locks to my existing key?
In most cases yes. We aim for one‑key convenience where compatible.

My key won’t turn — can you fix the ignition?
Yes — we repair/replace barrels and switches, extract broken keys, and re‑code so doors and ignition match.

Do you drill the van?
We use factory fixing points wherever possible. Where drilling is required, holes are minimal and treated/sealed for a tidy, factory‑look finish.

How long does fitting take?
Typical guide: two hook deadlocks ~60–90 mins; full shield kit add 45–60 mins; racking layouts vary by spec. We’ll confirm timings in your quote.

Will fitting affect my warranty or insurance?
Quality installs with recognised brands shouldn’t affect manufacturer warranty; many insurers favour additional locks. Always inform your insurer of upgrades.

Do you supply spare/remotes on site?
Yes — OEM‑quality remotes cut & coded on‑site (stock dependent).

Are strong boxes bolted down?
Absolutely — through‑fixed with internal tie‑downs for maximum strength.

Roof racks & pipe carriers — noise and MPG?
A small change is normal. Aero bars and a rear roller help reduce wind noise and drag.

What lengths/loads can you fit on the roof?
We install within manufacturer roof‑load limits and your model’s rating. Pipe carriers commonly 2m or 3m; longer by request if compliant.

What colours/finishes do shields come in?
Black, silver or stainless, with neat, formed profiles for Transit Connect doors.

Do you offer fleet/trade discounts?
Yes — available for multi‑van installs and repeat trade customers.

Where do you cover?
Mobile fitting across Orpington, Bromley, Kent & South‑East London.
