Lock ’n’ Level

I just carry a couple of pieces of decking cut to 4'long,(twin axle) to level the van. if required and use a nemesis lock as don't have to line the wheel with the receiver. only use alko lock when van in storage. would take some working out to get wheel in middle of lock n level and lined up with receiver.

I do as Lornalou  ..... though mine aren't as big 

I also have a twin axle and use blocks to level when needed.  No great problem even with two AlKo locks if one looks at where one wants the caravan and wheels to end up, before placing blocks down.

The money I didn't spend on two of these gadgets (and double ones at that) is beeing spent on wine and beer. Why two?  Because one is needed to fit the wheel lock(s), but sometimes the offside of the caravan is the side that actually needs raised to level it!

I have had a lock n level for a couple of years now and its one of the most useful accessories i have bought.

Its so easy to level the caravan and fit the Alko wheel lock. it takes up very little space and the whole process is done in a few minutes.

I would recommend it. Have you watched the videos on their website?

I have used L 'n L for five years now - and it's in constant use since I use it to fit the wheel locks on out TA van when it's in storage at home, as well as on site. I think it's the best bit of kit I have bought and the back-up service from Delter Culson is second to none (see my previous post).  That said, although it's a brilliant levelling device, it really comes into its own for fitting both wheel locks to a TA van and therefore I wouldn't say it was so essential on a single-axle van. In my opinion , it's the only safe way to jack a van on soft ground, and especially if a motor mover prevents access to the usual jacking points.

Peter - I've been using a lock n level on a single axle for a year. It's very easy to use, whichever side needs raising and makes the fitting of the Alko wheel lock a doddle. Worth the money and well made. 

Oh Have I! Brilliant! Best thing since the wood block, ramp and chock were invented. So easy to level van these days. 

Thank you everyone who has responded, there is more positives than negatives, so I have now ordered a Lock n Level. We’re away next week so I’ll see how I get on.
