Motorhome security- it's a hot topic. And we highly recommend you add additional security devices to your campervan or motorhome.
BUT- which ones? What's useful, and what's not?
Today, we fit the Milenco Motorhome Security door lock to our motorhome. We chose it as it's a lock which has interior and exterior fitting- so you can lock it from the inside. We show you how to fit this motorhome door lock, how to use it and whether it's any good!
You can buy the Milenco lock on Amazon here (Aff link): www.amazon.co.uk/shop/wanderi...

Simple and effective solution. Great video guys . I’m sure with the increase in van sales many people will be needing more security on their moho’s

Nice one, but I would have added a little bit of sealant around the gasket, just to be safe.

Yes put one on about 2 months ago, very close to door, so make sure you have the room on door frame to fit, ours catches slightly when opening/closing door. And nerve racking doing it!

We've got similar Milenco locks on our garage doors. Heolocks on cab doors and a Heolock on the habitation door which even replaced the inner skin.

Got to laugh.. Kat reminds me so much of my wife , and obviously means well. But I am afraid i would have had to tell her to go away and leave me to get on with it. :-) good video though.

Hi guys, Kool idea but drilling into your motorhome does it effect your warranty or did you check first?. Reading up on habitation warranty says drilling into your motorhome can effect it, possibility of damp. Love your vids by the way Sharky

Looks good. However, Mr WB's comment at the end was the most relevant. What about the windows? They usually are secured with silly little plastic catches. I eagerly await his solution!

There are such things as microwave/proximity sensor alarms that beep if someone goes near the vehicle these are not PIR movement sensors. There are self contained cameras on the market you can conceal outdoors overlooking your van that record or take pictures when movement is detected. Best deterrent is an extremely loud alarm.

What is the maximum thickness of the motorhome wall / structure / door frame to enable this to fit? At 2:07 it looks like it caters for about a 2.5cm thickness max (at a guess)???? Sorry to be a pain :) Any idea? Thanks

I would like one of these, but I would have to mount vertically. Even then, I'm still not sure if I would have enough space on the inside to fit it as the gap between a cupboard and the door frame is only about 5cms.

You can get a version that fits onto the door frame if you can't or have reservations about drilling holes through the van . Two screws through the inside edge of the frame and job done
