Security on site

Put it this way. You have your caravan covered by a policy which insists you have various security items in place. What site owner or warden is going to risk being sued for the cost of your van if it is stolen and your policy is invalidated because said items were not used at the behest of the site owner/warden?

I don't know about your insurance company preferring them to be fitted, you have stated that they will be fitted when you took out the policy and lets be honest we all have our set up routine and it takes no time to fit them

I always use both the hitchlock and wheel lock when on site just like I do in storage. Don't give the insurance company any wriggle room you can be sure they'll use it if they can.

I have always had caravan insurance policies which are content with a very simple basic hitch lock. If I get a quote from an insurance company which wants alarms, trackers, or wheel clamps I just click delete and insure elsewhere. 

Thanks all; I think i'll go down the route of safe rather than sorry and fit the locks. I was just concerned that sites might have a view on this, as I said, in case of emergencies. But locks on it shall be!

Get into the habit of using a hitchlock as the very minimum...I've only ever used the hitchlock on a Club site, never felt unsafe or worried i'd come back from a day out to no van. 

Hitchlock only, both here and over there. It satisfies my insurance and I can't be bothered with anything else.

Not on the Policy under security, but it has large letters saying 'LUNAR' on the van, that seems to deter most people 

As caravan thefts are almost unheard of on the Continent, the locals find Brits' preoccupation with locks and clamps very amusing. Most of them don't even possess such a thing as a lock, not even in storage.

Unless a site does not have barriers ,we do not use any security other than the milenco handle on the door which locks across it

Where we have stored our LVs for about 40 yrs ,to access is by card via two barriers one storage pitch cards only, i do not use any other security as i would rather my LV to be able to be moved quickly if the need arises

One thing worth noting on the insurance / security issue, is seasonal pitches.  A couple of years ago we had a seasonal at Cirencester Park. I couldn't find anything in the documentation so gave CAMC insurance a ring. As our caravan was stored in a gold compound this was taken into account on the insurance. Leaving it on a seasonal counted as storage, not pitching it on a caravan site. A temporary change to the policy and a small payment was required to maintain the insurance. Otherwise in the event of theft, fire or break in, it wouldn't have been covered. 

Whilst chatting with the van next to us, insurance came up in conversation. He hadn't even considered it and rapidly phoned the Club to sort his cover.
