Another kind of van security is a deadlock, that functions differently from a slam lock.

This makes it difficult for thieves to steal quickly as they will need spend time and effort in order to get the lock open.

Anti-peel kits are the third type of van security. They protect the lock cylinder from a method called 'peeling.' This technique involves leveraging weight against the side load door to open it.
