Services
Ghost Immobilisers
Ghost Immobilisers prevent vehicle theft by requiring a unique PIN code to start the engine. Our ISO-certified installations ensure compatibility with modern vehicles, offering undetectable protection against key cloning. Ideal for private and commercial vehicles, these systems provide peace of mind with self-arming technology and no visible indicators.
Van Deadlocks
Locks4Vans deadlocks enhance van security with mechanical deadbolts that operate independently of factory locks. Designed for light commercial vehicles, these high-security solutions deter theft and protect tools or goods. Installed by VCA-certified engineers, they offer durability and reliability for business-critical assets.
Vehicle Diagnostics
Our diagnostic services use state-of-the-art equipment to identify mechanical and electrical faults in cars and vans. From engine management to ABS systems, we provide precise fault code analysis and repairs. Regular diagnostics prevent costly breakdowns and ensure compliance with safety standards.
Dash Cams
We install high-resolution dash cams with features like loop recording, night vision, and G-sensors. These systems provide evidence in accidents, deter insurance fraud, and may reduce premiums. Our IROAD-branded cameras offer reliable performance for personal and fleet vehicles.

ScorpionTrack Fleet solutions enable real-time monitoring of vehicle locations, driver behaviour, and operational efficiency. With geofencing, reporting tools, and theft recovery features, our systems help businesses optimise logistics and reduce costs while maintaining compliance.

Report
I have been using the services of this company for over 20 years now. In that time they have looked after all of mine and my families cars in respect to alarms, sensors or trackers. More recently a dash cam. Throughout this time the product has been excellent, the service great and the back up to the same high standard. If you require a well fitted product by a honest, friendly and customer care oriented company, you should look no further.
