Thread: Securing Trailer from Theft

Watch how easy these guys got off with this. Apparently had 3 different locks.

What got me started is a guys trailer was stolen in Memphis and he was on the news. He had 3 different locks on the trailer and the guys got them all off/cut in less than a minute and gone! He had security cameras and got it on film. So I Googled the lock I use and found reviews indicting low stars and watch the video on YouTube. Unbelievable to me they can sell a product so worthless with the advertising saying "Advance locking mechanism resists picking and prying". What a joke.

i prefer boobee traps with high explosives. makes a miss but your boats still there and the thieves don't steal anymore.
