It uses, at its core, highly responsive tri axial accelerometers to detect minimal contact, and with highly efficient microchip technology we are able to program it to ignore the rocking from strong wind. Each unit has seven levels of ‘fine tune’ sensitivity for the end user to adjust, to tackle individual levels of exposure and the worst of heavy rain conditions to eliminate false alarms.

7 levels of sensitivity adjustment are incorporated into each Van Guardian alarm to satisfy a multitude of varied conditions, locational positions and applications. The end-user is responsible for experimenting with this function and refining their van guardian sensitivity, if necessary, or as and when it is required.

Heavy driving rain / HGV roadside traffic noise

Are two common variable factors that could require the end-user to refine on occasion there Van guardian to eliminate the chance of a false alarm. We provide a go-to reminder sticker to display inside your vehicle for convenience and reference for how to use this function.

Yes, Van Guardian was designed with security and the end user in mind. The simple installation procedure means your vehicle needn’t be off the road or out of action. There is no additional installation cost, no awkward drilling of your van and no complicated wiring loom to install.

Van Guardian activates on contact, providing an 110dB audible alert to thwart the actions of thieves, prevent criminal damage and ultimately protect your tools and assets from potential theft.
 
It can be used to protect any number of vulnerable commonly targeted at risk zones on and around a vehicle. From the pipe carrier, to prevent copper pipe theft, or roof rack to protect ladders and assets, to the back door and side door of the cargo areas of a van or truck.

Van Guardian is attached with 3M high bond contact adhesives creating a powerful, lasting bond across the whole or the base area. So long as the installation cleaning procedure is followed correctly it will form a strong lasting waterproof and secure bond.
 
The unit, once armed, also protects itself and will trigger a two second alarm warning upon sensing any unsolicited attempted removal and will activate a 30 second alarm if the action continues.

Once fitted and armed VANGUARDIAN activates on contact and so anyone attempting to tinker with or attempts to remove it VANGUARDIAN WILL activate the 110db Audible Alarm Alert Warning !
If they persist the alarm will reactivate and continue to sound for a further 30seconds drawing much unwanted attention !
Also, We employ 3M 5952f waterproof, high bond contact adhesive backing across the whole of the base area of a VANGUARDIAN alarm. This in effect, provides an extremely strong contact throughout the whole of the base area and is actually much stronger at resisting any attempt to remove than a 4 point drill and screw procedure !
And it doesn’t make holes in your van !
