Mul-T-Lock Combats the Rise in Vehicle Crime

As vehicle crime continues to be a growing concern, security specialist Mul-T-Lock is offering new solutions, specifically designed to address the alarming rise in thefts and break-ins and offer enhanced security and peace of mind.

There was a 24.9% year-on-year increase in the number of vehicles stolen across England and Wales, according to new data published by the Office of National Statistics. Analysis shows that there were 130,389 vehicles stolen last year, compared to 104,435 during the previous year (2021). Further surveys suggest theft from vehicles rose by 9.9%, with 212,900 people having items stolen from their vehicle compared to 193,647 the year before. Tradespeople are 10 times more likely to experience tool theft from a vehicle than they are from a building site or their place of work.

Suresh Peri, Head of Commercial and Technical says, “The statistics speak for themselves when it comes to vehicle crime, and worryingly only set to increase against a cost-of-living crisis.  The impact is naturally devastating – whether as a sole trader, small or large fleet operator – the potential for loss of livelihood and significant cost implications is extremely significant."

“We believe we have a duty of care, with our network of professional locksmiths on behalf of our customers to raise these concerns proactively. Mul-T-Lock's MVP2000 commercial vehicle solution offers high security, which is simple to install, maintain, and operate, giving commercial van owners immediate protection and comfort.”
