Has anyone got a clue as to where I can buy a wheel lock for the BPW chassis. Ive tried Elddis direct and my local Elddis dealer. Thanks in advance

    A bit like the Bulldog disc lock.Alko whinged that it was too much like their wheel locks as it used the alko reciever and it also disappeared off the market.They were far cheaper to buy and far easier to fit.

    Crazy. The caravan club offer a discount on my insurance of about £35 if one is fitted, This is the only one they specify. Guess what ? I can`t buy one, let alone find out which model number of lock I require, So I have had to resort to paying the extra
    £35. I do use a Bulldog wheel clamp anyway and the Winterhoff hitch lock. However I think Ive been done by the club asking me to fit a lock that isnt available. I only picked the new (to us) on Friday last week. Not happy. I will not be renewing next year
    either my club membership or their insurance, Scam

    I bought one recently for use on my twin axle caravan when on site ..... to much faffing trying to jack the caravan on gravel or grass to fit both Alko locks.

    Alko do a chart/brochure showing all available wheel lock receivers.

    They sort them into groups first the caravan manufactures,then second type of wheel You will also need Caravan year of manufacture.It is worth trying to contact Alko directly.

    Thanks for advice but its not a ALKO chassis. Its a BPW chassis from Germany(like Alko). They are the largest suppliers of chassis in Europe although trying to find info on their wheel locks is mad.
