What is External Shielding?
External shielding plates are heavy-duty security upgrades designed to safeguard your van’s factory door locks from forced entry. Crafted from hardened steel, they form a strong barrier against the specific drilling attacks commonly used by thieves.
For vans that have already been targeted or damaged in an attempted break-in, installing shielding plates can be a cost-effective way to restore security and prevent future attacks.
