Have you bought your dream camper that you have been working on for years? Are you planning a long-awaited vacation in a house on wheels? Take care of the safety of yourself, your loved ones and the property you take with you during your trip. Every year, among caravanning fans, the topic of thefts returns like a boomerang and can effectively spoil our vacation. Fortunately, RV owners are not defenseless. There are more and more devices on the market for securing the vehicle. Which of them is worth reaching for to ensure a peaceful rest without fear of thieves?

Alarm with motion sensors

Electronic security, installed both outside and inside motorhomes, is the most effective way to protect property against those who want to make easy money. Just like in homes, alarms in campers are activated manually by entering a pre-defined code.

After the driver and passengers leave the cabin, the security system is activated. When a potential thief is near the camper, he will be registered by the detectors, which transmit a signal to the alarm control panel. Then an alarm is activated - sound and light, and a message is sent to the vehicle owner's phone with information about the event.

Mechanical anti-burglary protection

During holidays, we are exposed not only to the loss of property in the camper, but also to the theft of the vehicle itself. To avoid a costly loss, it is worth purchasing various types of mechanical protection to prevent the camper from falling into the wrong hands.

The most commonly used solutions are wheel chocks, steering wheel and gearbox locks, which prevent the thief from moving the vehicle. It is worth investing another few hundred zlotys in the purchase of anti-burglary locks, which are easy to install and can discourage a thief from further actions.

Sleeping gas sensors

Burglaries of campers and caravans very often occur at night, when vehicle owners are less alert. However, in this case we are not doomed to do so
loss of property and possibly also health.

A good way to fight thieves is to install a sleeping gas sensor. Thanks to it, exceeding the permissible dose of incapacitating gas is signaled with sound and light, just like in the case of classic alarms. A wide selection of safety devices can be found at the camping accessories store.

During carefree holidays, let's not forget about basic safety rules. First of all, remember to lock your vehicle carefully at night and when you leave it, take your most valuable items with you or store them in a special safe.

In this way, we can avoid many dangerous situations that could ruin our plans for an unforgettable holiday.
