Product Details
DIRECT FROM THE MANUFACTURER!
THE ARMAPLATE CHALLENGER Hook Locks are made right here in the UK from high-grade stainless steel, to the very highest standards, with quality assured by ISO9001 Certification. Not only is the CHALLENGER made from better materials than any other deadlock on the market, but it is also covered by a guarantee which lasts the lifetime of ownership of the van.
Each Challenger Hook Lock comes with 3 KEYS and everything that is needed to carry out a quick and simple installation (with the obvious exception of tools). Detailed fitting instructions are included in the kit and we have a Technical Support Line in case you need some help.
Our locks incorporate a unique anti-prise serrated hook which digs into the receiver if thieves try to force the door open with a crowbar. Our hook is also made up of three stainless-steel sections instead of a single piece (which is more open to stress-fractures).
The Challenger Hook Locks come with comprehensive fitting instructions specific to your particular van with simple, easy to understand diagrams and measurements. Typically, it takes less than an hour to install for someone who's never done one before. Most people with good mechanical aptitude will have no problems fitting these locks.
PLEASE NOTE that when you place your order online, we will always contact you to make sure that you are purchasing the right kit for your van, so don't worry. Just make sure that you include a Mobile Telephone Number.
The kit you are currently viewing is for a MERCEDES VITO 2016 onwards. It includes three hook locks - two for the Sliding Doors and one for the Rear door (barn door, not tailgate).
WANT TO KNOW MORE?
The ARMAPLATE CHALLENGER hook locks provide extremely high levels of security and are perfect for those fleet-operators (or owner-drivers) who carry lots of expensive tools or goods in their vans and want the peace of mind of knowing that they’ve done everything possible to safeguard their livelihood.
A Hook-Lock is an active device which requires the driver to ensure they’ve activated it each and every time they leave the vehicle unattended. It is a mechanical device similar to the deadlocks which you might have in your main doors at home. The difference between the locks you have at home is that our locks use a stainless-steel hook instead of a regular shoot-bolt. The hook lock prevent the doors from being forced open with a crowbar by hooking around a steel receiver instead of simply passing through it. This makes the hook locks incredibly difficult to overcome and therefore offer the ultimate in van security.
CAN THE LOCKS BE PICKED?
In the last 25 years of working in the Vehicle Security industry, we have yet to see a van which has been broken into using lock-picking methods! Master Locksmiths who’ve served apprenticeships in Lock-Smithing may be able to pick a lock, but even they struggle with modern locks which are designed to be anti-pick!

CAN THE LOCKS BE DRILLED OUT?
If you have the very best tungsten-carbide tipped drill bits and a heavy duty cordless drill with spare batteries, it may take up to an hour to drill out a high quality steel lock. It will be incredibly noisy. Bear in mind that van-locks aren’t like simple domestic brass locks - these are tough drill-resistant cylinders.

CAN THE LOCK CYLINDERS BE BROKEN OFF?
Based on information relating to domestic locks. people sometimes think a hammer-blow to the edge of the cylinder will provide access to the van, but our locks have a sacrificial end which means that any heavy hammer-blow will result in the end of the cylinder shearing off and the lock being left in the fully-locked condition.

Armaplate do not sell hook locks for front cab doors! Thieves simply break the glass to gain access to the cab, so there is no point in fitting them. They can, in some circumstances, present a safety risk.
