Complete Buying Guide: Wheelclamps

Caravan and motorhome theft is a genuine risk in the UK — Metropolitan Police freedom-of-information data collected across 30 UK police forces recorded roughly 500–570 caravan thefts a year between 2020 and 2022. A visible, tested wheel clamp is one of the most established deterrents against this.

Caravan Wheelclamp (Original) C14

UK manufactured, with a pick-proof lock designed to resist attacks by sawing and freezing, this clamp is tested to exceed Sold Secure Gold standard. It's independently attack tested and approved by the Dutch Road Research Institute (TNO), Europe's most demanding test centre, and is approved to SCM MP03, described as the world's highest accredited standard for caravan security. It suits alloy or steel wheels, with foam backing to protect alloy rims, and is sized for 14" and 15" single-axle caravan wheels.

Motorhome Wheelclamp (Original) M16

Built to the same UK-manufactured, ultra-high-security standard, the M16 is also certified to far exceed Sold Secure Gold and is approved to SCM MP03. It's compatible with all caravan/motorhome wheel arches and both alloy and steel wheels, works with motor movers, and includes foam protection for alloy wheels.

Lightweight Wheelclamp

For everyday, quick-fit security, the Lightweight Wheelclamp is insurance approved and engages through the rim openings for a secure hold, with a high-visibility lock head to boost deterrence. It suits most 13"–15" caravan wheels and is built to be light enough for regular use, such as driveway or storage security.

Choosing between them

The Original C14 and M16 are the heavyweight options for maximum attack resistance, sized for caravan and motorhome wheels respectively. The Lightweight version trades some of that ultimate resistance for speed and ease of daily use. Check your wheel size against each clamp's stated fitment before buying.
