Proven Industries Wheel Lock

Kamate · November 2020

I've seen a lot of discussions on the coupler/hitch locks and the Trimax/Brahma wheel locks. I understand that no lock = 100% security. I'm just wondering if anyone has any experience with Proven Industries's Wheel Lock Model WL- 200 (https://www.provenlocks.com/collections/wheel-locks/products/wheel-lock-model-wl-100). We are waiting to receive our T@B 400 in February and are looking to spread the purchase of things we need. This month I'm supposed to work on "Security" so I'm thinking of PI's hitch lock and for a second "peace of mind" this wheel lock. Thoughts? TI@!!

Are you looking for locks to secure the T@B at home, or while you are boondocking and away from the site?

If you are boondocking then I would imagine you would want extra/heavier security than if it was in your driveway with people around it.

I bought a pair of wheel locks that look like the boots they use for parking infractions.

They aren't as sturdy, but used with a hitch lever lock and a ball lock I'm hoping they are a strong enough deterrent for my driveway.

@Kamate, the proven wheel lock you referenced, is only for steel trailer rims, not the alloy rims used on the TaB.
cheers

We use the Trimax. Among other things, its bright yellow. While the thief is 'shopping', he can see the lock. Then I added wheel lug locks so you can't just remove the wheel and tow the trailer away on the brake drum.

Its like running from a bear. You just have to be faster than your friends. You can't stop the thief, but you can make them move on to easier ground.
