Something my van contents insists upon, if anything is left in the van overnight.

As a car mechanic I know discovered, it suddenly becomes much less of a logistical nightmare after someone nicks several grands' worth of tools from the van. He uses a tool vault, which locks into a frame in the van by day and into another one that is bolted to a concrete floor in a secure store overnight.

It looks to me as though the back doors are without windows, rather than having blacked out windows. A steel front bulkhead certainly would make it a lot more secure. I would fit a Bulldog or Kryptonite van door lock as well though.

In one of the pictures, you can just see a couple of black bars behind the driver's seat, which is probably the load restraint frame fitted by the manufacturer.

The one in mine has a large dent, collected when a pallet load of goods broke loose and fetched up against it in an emergency stop.

It is usually an optional extra. I always have one fitted both for security and because, particularly with a large van, it makes the cab much more comfortable in winter if you are not trying to heat the load space.

It came to just under £260 inc VAT.

I went along to the sign place and sat next to the guy. He called up an outline drawing (three sides) of the Renault Kangoo (the program has almost every car & van made in it's database).

He already had my logo as a JPEG. I told him what I wanted & where & what font. He just typed it into boxes & drag & dropped it to where it was meant to go, & resized it accordingly. Just like using a photo editing program.

Once I was happy he printed me a copy.

I booked the van in for Monday afternoon and the signs were already printed & cut ready to go on, took about an hour to do.

Dead simple really.

Had two more jobs come in today as a result of pe

I've already bought the franchise for Medway Randy Man.
