Drivers are not safe anywhere now.
We have made the use of Protek-dor Kabgards compulsory for all Pulleyn drivers, to ensure their own safety against
attacks. Between Kabgard and Lokgard we are able to give our drivers
a greater sense of security and allow them to sleep without fear of harm
in their cabs.
Barry McQueen, operation manager, Pulleyn Transport
The Protek-dor devices have given our
drivers a much needed defence against such attacks and will be used by us
on all our European vehicles as part of their standard equipment. Only
last week one of our lorries had both door locks drilled out in an attempt
to open the cab doors where our driver was sleeping, but they did not gain
entry. It has also impressed our customers to see the security measures we
have implemented.

We issue our drivers in Europe with Kabgard.
It is the best device on the market and keeps the driver safe and secure.
Del Carr - Transport Manager, Derek Linch Haulage
The Kabgard is highly visible from
the cab windows and is therefore an obvious deterrent to would-be
attackers and offers drivers both protection and piece of mind. The safety
of our drivers is of paramount importance to us and we are continually
looking at new ways to increase their security. We are definitely
impressed with the in-cab protection offered by this new and innovative
device.
Lee Durose, International Operations Manager, Eddie Stobart
Managing director of H Appleyard and Sons (East Yorkshire) Ltd, Andy Dickerson,
says: “We pride ourselves on keeping not only the ossessions of our
clients safe but also ensuring the safety of our drivers. Unfortunately,
violent attacks on drivers are becoming more common in the industry and
it is important to take steps to prevent such attacks.
Mick Moseley, Fleet engineer, Chambers & Cook, comments: “Lokgard is
an excellent product and all the drivers are extremely happy with the added
sense of security the device gives. We are now looking to purchase lokgards
to fit our Iveco trucks.”
JP International’s Jackie Parker responded directly
to the concerns of her employees: “Our drivers were worried about
being attacked whilst resting at truck stops. It is something that they
have experienced on previous occasions, so we were conscious that it was
a very real threat. On seeing how effective Lokgard and Sleepgard could be against thieves, we immediately bought a set for each of our vehicles. With Protek-dor
security devices fitted to their cabs, I know that I am
sending drivers out well-equipped to carry out their job in safety. They
are an excellent deterrent to the would-be thief and enable drivers to
sleep better at night, knowing they and the horses they are transporting
are safe from attack,” she continued.
