I don’t think anyone here has had a Custom broken into...

[buckle30]

all I hear is customs broken into. security is awful. I'm getting all locks changed this week on mine.

[bigjohnthomas]

I hear you can break into them using a lesbian and a can of special brew and a brick

[buckle30]

should get yours ears checked mate

[bigjohnthomas]

Oh yeah
So what locks are you changing the door and ignition?
Have you had that update done?

[buckle30]

drivers door lock and a lock on rear door up high and sliding door up high to stop thief's door folding.
Might be enough to stop them even having ago seeing I got upgraded locks. definitely make it harder for them.
yes I had the recall update done to. have you?

vehicles are for transporting goods, not storing them

For that, you’ll want a shed

[Doormedic]

Done as much as I can
Front door Hykee lock fitted
ODB port protector
Original Disclok over steering wheel
Extra deadlocks on back &side doors
Tracker fitted
Covered by Cctv
Wish I would have kept to my Renault Trafic

Vans getting broken into isn’t a new thing! I like the above post have spent as much time and money as I can to secure my livelihood.

You can break into a Renault tragic with just you hands

There are at least two vans a week being broken into in this area, according to the local neighbourhood watch newsletter, and it's pretty clear that it isn't only Transits that are suffering. Any tradesmens vans are a target.
They did try mine, but didn't get past the extra security

Every vehicle is being broken in to in grimsville atm
Side window through and take what ever is inside
There was only one day last week I didn't see a car with its side window put through
And that was my day off
Bloody ford

Why ask this question then?

Has anyone had their custom broken into or stolen or even kit stolen?

Had some knobs decided to take a look in the van in the summer. They didn't like what they saw - probably because it wasn't makita drills or hi-vis. Had at least £8k of camera kit (lights, stands, tripods, rigs etc.) stored overnight because I got in super late and couldn't be arsed unloading. So instead they smashed the drivers side window and stole a £3 iPhone cable, sun glasses (prescription, I hope they have astigmatisms in both eyes...) and a pack of paprika max crisps.

Still on the look out for a custom limited rear drivers side door in panther grey if anyone has one lying about

[Tomsurrey]

About three weeks ago my sons van was opened by somehow doing something with the drivers door lock, very light damage but they got in... don't know how I guess this would be on youtube? They took his dash-cam and a TomTom.

This was in Coulsdon, Surrey.

How can he make it harder for them to get in??
