Security for fridge etc

You could try a thick chain around the handles (Waceo ununsure of chescold) and then drill out the allan key holes. Just a thought.

Admittedly, our fridge is part of a camper conversion in our Troopy but the fridge is bolted through the base to a board which is then supported by springs to the floor of the Troopy. It is hard to explain from here as there are drawers and cupboards that make up our conversion but there is another board screwed with hidden screws covering the springs and holding bolts for the fridge.

What this has achieved is a fridge that is on springs but is also secure from 2 legged Dingo's. We have an Engel frodge and from memory, there must be bolt holes underneath. Sorry I cannot check for a month or so exactly how it is secured as the Troopy is in storage in Melbourne and we are in Brisbane - getting it back in around a month assuming it goes after 8 months storage.

Mine stays locked in the ute. I can't see any other way of securing the fridge. Plus whenever I go for a drive I always have cold drinks :-)

I have my fridge on a slider in the back of the duel cab, I use a bike lock (plastic coated cable) to lock it to the side tie down, there is enough lenth in the cable for the fridge to be fully drawn out while still locked.

Hi
I have an Engel permantly in the back of the 4WD. I've gone for bluff rather than security. The frig has chains and locks at both end which looks very secure. However, if somebody wants it, it will go.

I've opted for insurance.

READ THIS CAREFULLY.

Household contents are covered by your household insurance.

A portable fridge when stored at home in the garage, constitutes household goods.

Further, an open garage when you are at home on the weekend is not an unacceptable risk. Should something get stolen whilst you are inside having lunch, well you can't be responsible. If someone invades your property and steals whilst you are briefly not there to protect it, well so be it.

I believe in the integrity of people in the bush and am confident my camping goods may only be stolen from my home.

That's the way I see it.

About 3 feet of chain with your fridge on one end and your dog on the other...

Our little group of campers varies from 2x adults+1 child to 8-16 adults +16-25 children , Always at least 1 person in camp for 1 reason or another ,would take a minimum of 2x 2 legged feral animals to "lift" the 80lt waeco when full of the amber fluid ect.
