Locking gas bottles and water cans on a Camping Trailer

Thanks mrlocks.
I thought as much but wanted others opinion.
Thinking of a maybe plastic coated hardened cable and padlocks.

Cheers

Unfortunately the number of low lifes just waiting for the oportunity to relieve us of our posessions seems to be on the increase. Personally I would use plastic coated wire cables and hardened shank locks as you mentioned, they are a bit harder to cut with tools such as bolt cutters. The dirtbag with an angle grinder is a bit harder to stop but usually they don't like to make as much noise.

"If someone wants to grab something, they will."

Yep and most likely steal whatever is the most easiest..........which will be the unlocked over the locked. Its about making your gear less attractive as a easy target!

"I reckon you would have more chance of winning lotto than having someone pinch your gas, or water in a caravan, or national park.
Yeah, it could happen, but so could someone jacking up your car and pinching the wheels. "
Oh yeah. That sounds like some famous last words to me as plenty have had even their fridges nicked when some lowlife decides their need is greater than the owners.
I was in the Guolderton C/P some years back and the old couple opposite us had an Engel pinched when it was plugged in right outside their van door. And the cops out of Port Hedand pulled a bloke with a ute for some reason and found several fridges in the back none of which he called rightly call his own.
Take all the precautions you can, as someone will lift it or anything else not tied down tight, and there'd be nothing worse than yer supplies of coldies disappearing one hot day!

Rob,

Good to hear that theft is quite uncommon, in most people's experience.

From what I've heard recently, rather then steal your gas cylinders, some of these "travellers" would prefer to take your full cylinder, and leave you with their empty one. Would suggest it's a rare occurrence, but has happened.

Safe travels everyone,

Bob.
