Vehicle Trackers
A tracker does not prevent theft — it changes what happens afterwards. Recovery is a race, and the vehicles that come back are usually the ones whose location was known within the first hour.
We fit trackers to cars, vans and small fleets at your address. We will also be straightforward about the ongoing side of it: trackers rely on a subscription and on someone acting on an alert, so they work best alongside prevention such as an extra immobiliser or van locks.

What a tracker gives you
Location reporting, movement alerts and a history of where the vehicle has been. For a business running two or three vans, that also answers everyday questions about jobs and mileage, not just theft.
Prevention first, tracking second
If the vehicle is high risk we normally suggest pairing a tracker with something that makes the theft harder in the first place. Recovering a vehicle days later, stripped, is a worse outcome than the theft failing at the kerbside.
Tracker installation and subscriptions
Installation is discreet and carried out at your vehicle. Tracking hardware needs an active subscription with the tracking provider to keep reporting, so we will explain what that involves before you commit.
