I am new to the trailer tent experience, having just made the move from Coleman tent to Cabanon Stratos DL

The Cabanon is on order and so next spring a new camping experience begins.

What advice can you give me regarding security. I am storing at a Gold award site, but would appreciate any advice regarding wheel clamps (makes & models) and anything else that you can recommend

Thanks guys

Hi there

We have a cabanon Atlantis and thought long and hard about security. First of all I would make sure it is insured, our insurance company does not insist on any security devices as they say that a tt is a much lower risk than a caravan. However we bought a wheel clamp from a local dealer but unfortunately the 2 we tried just would not fit. We did however buy a used wheel clamp from him which was alot cheaper and fitted just fine. The make is bulldog autoclamp and is the traditional type which fits over the type.

good luck

Zel

Hitch lock is a good idea too.

Zel & Nuttytart,

Thanks for your help.

I have sorted insurance via the Camping and Caravan Club and am taking all the advice given by getting a Hitchlock and Wheelclamp.

Thanks again

Happy Camping

John
