A friend to me that the use rachet straps when inside to actually strap all the doors together to stop them from being opened. I'd imagine this would be quite effective as the doors would not be able to be opened irrespective of the lock. Any thoughts?
I can only think that it would be a pain getting out in a hurry!
I used this method on my old camper a couple of times, but I'm not sure it would be that easy on a Bongo. There's nothing to thread the strap through on the door :( .
A couple of solutions to that:

£23 - comes with metal handles to fix to the door http://www.caravantech-shop.co.uk/produ ... -safe-pack

My best suggestion for security when you're asleep, is to get a dog. :) Nothing gets past them and if they hear a prowler, they let you know. Or...you could put a very big dog bowl and a large can of dog food outside the van/awning...they'd think you had a very big dog and give you a wide berth. :wink:
