Trackershop has you covered! View Products

Romford and Ilford are officially the car theft hot spots in the country.

 This may be an initial surprise to many, but when it comes to car theft these locations are substantially outranking some of the more high profile locations and bigger cities, such as London, Birmingham and Manchester, with 13.5 thefts for every 1000 vehicles! 

Southend is also listed at number 6 in the moneysupermarket.com survey, supporting claims that Essex is still a major target for organised car theft gangs.

The grim truth is, no matter where a vehicle is stolen, there is a very slim chance that you will ever see your car again.

As a result, installing car trackers in Romford has never been more important than it is now. But the good news is, it has never been easier or more effective in protecting your vehicle from the many organised crime gangs. 


THE NEED FOR CAR TRACKERS IN ROMFORD

Keyless entry vehicles are now the most targeted by car theft gangs. This is due to the ability to use quick, covert relay theft techniques to steal these particular types of vehicles.

What is Relay Theft?

You may have heard the term relay theft in the media, as it is now the preferred method of theft by organised crime gangs.

Relay theft involves using portable transmitter devices to hijack your car's key fob signal. This equipment is relatively inexpensive and readily available for thieves to buy online. 

Take this typical example of relay theft of your vehicle when it is parked on your driveway.

One thief will stand by your car with a transmitter, with another thief stood by your house with a relay device. This device picks up the signal from your car key inside your house. 

The key's signal is then relayed to the transmitter next to the car, tricking the vehicle into thinking the key is close by, allowing the thief to unlock the car door, starting it up and driving away.

 

This covert, silent technique can be carried out in less than a minute. With most of these thefts occurring at night, there's a high chance you will not even know your vehicle has been taken until several hours later. By this time your vehicle may already be out of the country!


TRACKING DEVICE INSTALLER ROMFORD

Due to the car theft epidemic throughout the country insurance providers are now insisting that motorists install a car tracker in Romford and throughout other car theft hot spots.

 If you're renewing or taking out a new insurance policy this year it may be the first time that you have been asked to install a tracker to your vehicle. This means that it may be a process that you know very little about, and are also likely to have been instructed to fit the tracker with little to no notice! 

This can lead to quite a hectic and stressful amount of research and organisation.

The good news is that Trackershop provides full installation service and offer the quickest appointment time covering every UK postcode.

Our team will also be able to offer guidance on the correct insurance approved car tracking device that you will need for your vehicle and insurance policy.


BEST CAR TRACKERS IN ROMFORD

Trackershop supply and fit the best car trackers in Romford, ensuring full protection for your vehicle. 

Let's take a look at your options.


S5 TRACKER IN ROMFORD

This is the newest Thatcham approved car tracking device categorisation.

The S5 Tracker is a fully monitored real-time tracking device and is now the highest level of GPS vehicle recovery security available.

 

The S5 Tracker features numerous instant theft alerts such as tow away, battery tamper and lift alerts.

What makes the S5 Tracker the best tracking device for car security is the ADR system.


ADR (Automatic Driver Recognition)

The ADR system recognises you as the official driver of the vehicle. You will have a small proximity fob with you that recognises you as an authorised driver.

This means that, if a thief uses relay theft or even outright steals your car key then an instant alert will be raised in the control room.

The control room will then contact you to confirm the status of the vehicle.


The thief will not know that they have triggered an alert, allowing the control room to guide the police straight to where the vehicle and catching them in the act, often in minutes!

S7 TRACKER IN ROMFORD

The next stage of Thatcham approved tracking devices is the S7 Tracker.

The S7 tracker has the same monitoring service as the S5 but does not include ADR. 

Whatever car insurance tracker that you opt for, it's possible that your insurance provider will offer you a discount on your policy, and more importantly, you will be able to enjoy your vehicle with full peace of mind.
