Expanding its range of factory-fit Ford security packs, TVL Security has developed streamlined versions of its existing HookLock and ArmourShell Security packages focusing solely on protecting the given vehicle’s load area. By granting customers the ability to select targeted and tailored protection to be installed prior to delivery, the new security packs allow businesses to maximise their operational and cost efficiency.
The new variations mark the latest step in TVL Security’s already long-standing partnership with Ford, with the aftermarket vehicle security expert having worked as an official enhanced equipment provider since 2018.
Laura Moran, Managing Director, TVL Group, says: “Our new load area-specific security packs offer Ford customers greater flexibility and reduced costs by focusing protection where they need it most. These streamlined versions are designed to meet the specific needs of individual fleets, providing targeted robust security solutions.
“By partnering closely with Ford, we’re able to deliver these enhanced security features directly from the factory, ensuring that Ford customers can rely on the highest standards of protection from day one.
“This initiative is part of our ongoing commitment to innovate and respond to customers’ needs, making vehicle security more accessible and effective.”
The new Loadspace HookLock Security pack features LatchSafes and HookLocks on the side and rear doors. The new Loadspace ArmourShell Security Pack offers these same benefits plus the added visual deterrent of external semi-automatic locks on the side and rear doors, anti-drill inserts and a hardened steel locking bolt.
Ford customers can still opt for the existing HookLock and ArmourShell security packs, with each including front door DeadLocks on the driver and passenger doors.
The cabin DeadLock pack is also a new addition, including DeadLocks, RepLock, LatchSafes and Loom Guards.
The SlamHandle Security Pack, featuring LatchSafes on the rear and side load doors, is also still available, while all TVL Security-supplied Ford packs come with its patented high-security anti-pick cylinder RepLock™.
Mandy Dean, Commercial Vehicles Director, Ford of Britain and Ireland, says: “Our long-standing partnership with TVL Security continues to deliver exceptional value to our customers. By integrating these innovative, factory-fitted security solutions, we are enhancing the protection of our commercial vehicles’ load areas from day one.
“This collaboration underscores our commitment to providing reliable and secure vehicles that meet the evolving needs of Ford customers across the UK and Ireland.”
TVL Group manufactures the products at its headquarters in Brentwood, Essex, and ships them to Ford’s assembly plant in Kocaeli, Turkey, where they are fitted to the vehicles before being delivered to customers.
These new packs can be easily added to any vehicle order by quoting the relevant feature code. The LoadSpace HookLock uses feature code AAKAG; the LoadSpace ArmourShell code AAKAH; and the Cabin DeadLock Pack uses AAKAF.
