Are you a van owner? If so, you probably carry important items with you, cargo that is best left protected. It’s no longer safe to just lock your van, hoping that while it remains safe while it remains parked far away from your reach for long periods. 

Theft happens everywhere; good neighborhoods, bad neighborhoods, it really doesn’t matter. You could have a phone, laptop, other electronic devices, invaluable cargo, or a client’s package in your van. 

If you want that extra protection from potential thieves lurking around waiting to break into your van, it’s time to consider purchasing an alarm system. 

Alarm System

In past years, van owners have used additional locks and other methods to keep their items secure, but these days it’s harder to leave valuables simply under lock. They could be easily picked by thieves without your knowledge. 

An alarm system detects an intrusion into your van and may cause a high-volume sound as an alert. It is installed in the vehicle and differs greatly from car alarm systems. 

Depending on the company, some alarm systems only send real-time notifications to the driver, while others have motion detectors. 

Regardless, an alarm system is simply an effort to keep your van and its contents always protected. 

Types of Alarm Systems

When you begin searching for what alarm system appeals to you, take note of how much you’re willing to spend and what type of security you need. 

Again, some van drivers transport electronic devices with them. Many van drivers may only want to protect the tools they use for work. Yet, others are responsible for sensitive information and valuable packages that call for greater security. 

Once you’ve settled your budget and desired alarm system, take your time with the options. 

Certain alarm systems offer customers the following:

  • Entry sensor
  • Motion sensor
  • Base station
  • Panic button
  • Cargo, part, and tool areas armed
  • Live text or email notifications
  • Additional reinforced locks
  • Independent alarms for cabs and cargo
  • Engine kill feature
  • GPS tracking
  • Keyless entry

Because the cargo you may be transporting isn’t too valuable, you may rather purchase a car alarm system that is cheaper but offers similar services. If that’s the case, many companies install the alarm system themselves. 

Great Alarm Systems

Purchase a system with a company you trust. Alarm systems are being rapidly upgraded, so find your fit. 

Specifically for vans, you will find;

  • AVITAL Security/Remote Start System
  • Viper 5706V 2-Way Car Security with Remote Start System
  • Viper Color Remote Car Alarm System
  • CARLOCK Real Time Tracker and Alert System
  • Prestige Remote Start and Security System
  • Viper 1-Way Security System

The more services offered by the alarm system, the more expensive it will be. Be realistic in what you need, but also mind what type of cargo you have. 

More Methods

There are, of course, fancier methods of protecting your van and ensuring your cargo is out of harm’s way. However, don’t forget the basics. Always double check you are locking your van. Make sure to park your vehicle in a space you feel comfortable. 

As uncomplicated as it may seem, never leave your vehicle without being certain it’s safe and that your cargo will be there waiting for you to hit the road.
