Why trailer security matters
Trailers are easy targets. They’re often parked on driveways or in yards, they have no engine immobiliser and they can be hitched and gone in seconds. Visible, good-quality security makes a thief look elsewhere.
The best approach is layers: a hitch lock to stop the coupling being used, a wheel clamp or locking wheel nuts, and good lighting or CCTV where the trailer is kept.
At a glance

Fitting and compatibility
Check the product details above against your trailer before ordering. If you’re unsure, email us your trailer make, model and size, or a photo, and we’ll confirm it’s the right part. Many Apache parts also suit similar trailers from other makers, and the GOV.UK guide to towing with a car is a useful refresher on keeping your trailer legal.

Care and maintenance
Trailer parts last longest when they are kept clean and checked regularly. Rinse off road salt and mud after winter use, look for corrosion, cracks or loose fixings before each trip, and replace anything worn before it fails on the road. A few minutes of checks at home saves a lot of hassle at the side of the road.
Store spare parts somewhere dry, and keep fixings and small items together so they are easy to find when you need them. If you are unsure whether something needs replacing, send us a photo and we will give you an honest opinion.
