Trailer locks
Prevent cargo theft with a certified trailer lock
Cargo theft remains a major problem. In 2022, 13416 cargo thefts were reported with a total loss of more than EUR 324 million. This is a more than doubling compared to 2021. Besides cargo theft, climbers are also causing increasing damage and costs. A certified trailer lock on the rear doors of your trailer will prevent you from being targeted. There are different types of certified trailer locks available. But what is the difference between these trailer locks and which trailer lock is most suitable for you?
Mechanical trailer locks
With a mechanical trailer lock, you provide your trailer with rock-solid security. In addition, mechanical trailer locks have a deterrent effect. Criminals are more likely to leave your vehicle standing if it is fitted with a trailer lock. Our mechanical trailer locks are Kiwa SCM certified and suitable for TAPA TSR 3 certification.
Electronic trailer locks
With electronic trailer locks, you not only provide your truck with rock-solid security, but also have real-time insight into the location and condition of the load. You can decide who you give access to the cargo space of your vehicle, and when. With electronic locks, you easily register when and by whom the lock was opened. This means you always know who was responsible for the transport. Our electronic trailer locks meet the highest security standards and are suitable for TAPA TSR 1 certification.

Which SBS trailer locks are available?
Trailer locks for TAPA certification
The Transported Asset Protection Association (TAPA) is an industry association that helps minimise losses of goods in the supply chain. Like TAPA, our goal is to reduce transport crime and cargo theft. As a TAPA security service provider, we are always up to date with the latest security requirements and know what our trailer locks must comply with. We also offer our customers support in obtaining TSR certification. This is possible with our SBS trailer locks. Read more about TAPA certifications.
Kiwa SCM approved locks
With a Kiwa SCM approved lock, you can be sure that your trailer is optimally protected against burglary. This is because SCM-approved trailer locks are thoroughly tested for strength. Our approved locks feature extra-strong cast-iron brackets and a high-quality padlock. An example of such an SCM-approved lock is the SBS Turtle trailer lock. Certain transport insurance policies even require an SCM-certified lock. If no lock with an approval mark was then used in case of burglary, the insurance company will not pay compensation.
