    just how secure are alko hitch locks????

    Don,t be lulled into a false sense of security because you have one of these fitted.Mine was peeled back like a corned beef can and left in the space previously occupied by 15k,s worth of caravan.Last heard of in cleveland area. Maybe tin of beans more of a detterant!! gary
