SecuriLock: The Best Way to Fight Cargo Theft
Most locks can't afford to guarantee safety. This one does.
Did you know that roughly every 23 minutes, a work van is broken into? In Canada alone there was over 4,400 cases of $5,000 worth of equipment being taken from inside vehicles in 2021, a number that has stayed consistent with years previous. If your work tends to move your tools around in your vehicle a lot, it may be worth investing in an extra layer of protection for your equipment and your van.

One of the key pulls of the covered cargo van model over a pickup truck is the privacy. With your tools completely hidden from prying eyes, you are less likely to find things have gone missing under mysterious pretenses. But as effective as the “Out of Sight, Out of Mind” thinking can be, relying on it to safeguard your vehicle isn’t enough. Being able to close your doors and be sure they’ll stay closed will provide you the peace of mind to do your job without worry. The SecuriLock system will support you in protecting your tools and your vehicle without sacrificing accessibility or safety.
Key Features of Securilock
#1 – Its Built to Stay Strong
The Italian-made SecuriLock is constructed of hardened steel with a 55 HRC. The metal build has been tested against hammers, levers, pliers, and other tools that may commonly be used to infiltrate a padlock. The shell of the lock itself is designed to withstand both drilling and cutting.
The lock is finished with a weatherproof coating made of nickel and zinc. This shell keeps the lock from being damaged by outside elements, meaning it will last longer without wear.
Even the key is a durable, uniquely complex design that makes it higher security that an average padlock key. The patented cylinder design makes it effectively impossible to duplicate your SecuriLock key without reaching out to the manufacturer.
#2 – Safety from the Interior too
SecuriLock will help keep the inside of your vehicle protected, but where any other padlock can just as easily keep the door shut with you inside, the SecuriLock system has a release attached to the interior of the vehicle that gives anyone inside the cargo area the ability to unlock it as well. In event of an emergency, nothing should get in your way of getting to safety, especially not the things created to keep you safe in the first place. The release pully is attached to a cable that is built into the lock and can be secured to the inside of the van during the simple process of the locks installation, with no added complication.
#3 – Tamper-Proof
“Legend Van Locks are a quality lock with no loose pieces. The locks are a simple and quick install and look great once installed.”
The lock rests closely to the door and it built with parts close together, making it impossible to pry at with narrow tools such as a screw driver. The shell-casing of the lock is resistant to damage so blunt force will have a much harder time dislodging it than other locks. The slam-lock functionality means that you don’t have to remember to lock the door, as it will secure itself when the hold is closed.
SecuriLock is easy and quick to install and comes with a drilling template so it can be attached with no mishaps. It affixes permanently to the door through multiple screws and attaches to the escape release that winds seamlessly up the inside of the van door. Once it is constructed, the locking mechanism is one piece, so there is no chance of an integral part going missing. Stonebrooke Equipment, a fleet upfitter based in Burnsville Minnesota said “Legend Van Locks are a quality lock with no loose pieces. The locks are a simple and quick install and look great once installed.”
