About this deal

It’s a well-known fact that the majority of security devices – winter wheels, wheel clamps, hitchlocks etc – can be removed by a number of different methods known to professional thieves. Alko recommend taking the weight off the suspension to let it "rest" but insurers' wheelclamp requirements prevent that - fortunately CC insurance doesn't make the wheelclamp obligatory - so maybe the answer is a more careful choice of insurer. They’re suitable for all Al-Ko and BPW chassis’d caravans (four-and five-studs) and can be switched from one caravan to another. To take the hassle of choosing the different components, we also do complete caravan wheel assemblies inflated and ready to be fitted to your caravan. This still allows you to fit a wheel clamp and would allow you to move the caravan, albeit slowly and short distance (perhaps repositioning in storage), if the need arose, without having to put the "real" wheels back on.

Owned by the Master Locksmiths Association, the largest trade body of its kind, Sold Secure is a subsidiary that acts as an independent testing house for security products, including those designed for caravans.However my insurance comanty policy states that a wheel clamp should be used if caravan left over two hours! If you’re jacking up your caravan to fit any security device, bear in mind the usual advice – never use your corner steadies as jacks and never go under your vehicle. The Hublock usually involves taking the wheels off so it seems unusual to have it fitted in combination with the AL-KO Secure. Caravan winter wheels are an effective way of securing your caravan and protecting your tyres from any costly damage that can happen as a result of leaving your tyres on during winter. Building on your selected rim, we have a range of differentply caravan tyres along with durable inner tubes.

I was thinking of removing the wheels and tyres from the caravan so as to reduce detrioration and fitting some winter wheels this winter. You’ll see the Sold Secure logo on a wide range of caravan security products, including winter wheels and wheel clamps. True, they involve removing your existing wheels, then putting them back on again when you want to travel, but you could – in theory – use them any time of the year and on any occasion when your vehicle is stationary for long periods of time. The WL10 uses the same quality 25mm diameter locking bolt with case-hardened shaft and anti-drill centre, as used in Bulldog’s Sold Secure-approved locks.Storing your caravan in one place during the winter months without caravan winter wheels can also subject your wheels to damage in the shape of flat spots and cracking mean you may have to replace your caravan wheels, a costly job. Although winter wheels are primarily designed for use when your caravan is in winter storage, some owners find that – with practice – they can be fitted reasonably quickly all-year-round. Would gladly swap for a pair of steel wheels with ancient/rubbish tyres that I could put on my van so I could remove my wheels! A suggestion I 've heard before, but never tried myself, that allows you to remove the wheels and to comply with your insurance requirements is to replace your normal wheels with an old set perhaps not even a set with tyres on. Knowing the importance ofgood quality and long lasting wheels, we supply only the best from big name brands such as Starco.

Also, they mean you don’t have to worry about any undue tyre wear caused by long-term storage in the same place.i Agree wholeheartedly with the first comment and for years have failed to understand why insurance discounts are offered for Alko wheel locks but not the JSB hublock. A straightforward winter wheels device that’s easier to fit thanks to just the one locking plate with locking bolt.
