🚐 Van Locks Forest Hill – Lock4Vans Installation & Van Security

By The Key Locksmith

🔐 Protect Your Van & Tools in Forest Hill

Van and tool thefts have risen sharply across Forest Hill, Honor Oak, and South-East London, with thieves targeting parked work vans overnight.
If your van is key to your business, securing it with Lock4Vans-approved systems is one of the best ways to protect your tools and livelihood.

At The Key Locksmith, we install Lock4Vans systems that defend against door peeling, forced entry, and spiking attacks.
We fit hook locks, deadlocks, slam locks, anti-peel kits, and stainless-steel spike shields — all professionally installed on-site and covered by a full parts & labour guarantee.

🔩 Van Security Upgrades We Install

  • Hook Locks – High-strength hooks that secure directly into the van’s body, preventing peeling and prying.
  • Deadlocks – Key-operated mechanical locks that add a solid secondary locking point for overnight security.
  • Slam Locks – Automatically lock when the door closes — ideal for couriers and tradespeople.
  • Anti-Peel Kits – Reinforce the upper door edges to stop forced peeling.
  • Spike Shields – Stainless-steel plates that prevent spiking or drilling near the handle.

All components are Lock4Vans-approved, installed by a DBS-checked, fully insured locksmith, and designed to meet professional security standards.

🛡️ Stop Van Spiking in Forest Hill

“Van spiking” — where thieves drill or punch through the panel near the handle — is a growing crime in South London.
Our Lock4Vans spike shields completely prevent this attack.

They:

  • Block access to the internal lock system
  • Reinforce the door structure
  • Cover previous spiking damage
  • Deter repeat break-in attempts

If your van has already been targeted, we can repair the damage and upgrade your locks during the same visit.
