Does anybody have deadlocks on their back doors of their van or slamlocks and is it a hindrance keep unlocking them?
Dead locks or slam locks are fine for delivery drivers but we couldn't use a door that automatically locked when you closed it. The parcel delivery companies, pharmacutical companies, etc., used to specify them on new vans, but I never had a tradesman asking for them when I was in van sales.
The van my son has had them fitted, and there was a notice on the back doors warning the driver not to close the doors without the keys on his person. All of that was removed.
We lock the van's front doors on the remote with the back doors open. The side doors locks as well. After locking we close the back doors. The back doors remain unlocked with all the other s locked. With 2 of us working off the van either us can open the back doors as they are unlocked.
