Are you saying that you need one where the site owner can emove the lock himself rather than you?

Could you not use a standard Alko hitchlock where you leave a key with the storage yard? Mine takes about 5 seconds to put on and take off.

At the end of the day the hitch lock will only hinder a thief. I think that I would also make sure at the least that a secure wheel clamp was also put on. These will also only hinder a thief.

Depending on how much value you put on your Caravan governs on how much you can justify to spend on security.

It is easy to spend 4 figures which most can either not afford or justify.

Thanks for keeping us informed.

Paul
