About

HaltLock

Features
Read full description

HALTLOCK ™ is a fully integrated mechanical locking device to put an end to vehicle theft. Its revolutionary design integrates the immobilising system into the drivetrain, ensuring that your vehicle will always be exactly where you have left it. Fully Integrated – HALTLOCK ™ is designed to physically immobilise any vehicle with a drivetrain. Once locked by the mechanically integrated system, the vehicle physically cannot move. The mechanical design makes the integration process for both new vehicles and aftermarket fitment simple and easy. Totally Independent – HALTLOCK ™ does not connect to the electronic control unit (ECU) of the vehicle and the primary operating function is done with a separate remote and/or smartphone. Independence from the vehicle’s systems is a core design requirement from initial concept. [:mav: 1.0.10]
