What effect do the following security products have on insurance 2024

[swemmy666]

Planning on a purchase, and I'm considering which security products I should budget for and what effects they might have on the insurance quotes. Things I'm considering:
VANBITZ growler system
Immobiliser
Bear Lock transmission disabler
Thatcham deadlocks on all doors
Disklok steering wheel cover
thanks in advance for any contributions

When I was getting quotes, I was told that removable security items, disk locks, wheel locks etc, didn't affect the quotes because they said we may forget to put them on or just decide not to use them for some reason.

They were interested in a tracker and immobiliser being fitted. We don't have an alarm so I don't know what effect that would have, but presumably a positive one.

LV weren't interested that we had a S5 tracker on our over 70K new van last year. Mind you they weren't interested in how much we paid either! Competitive quote so we went with them anyway.....

We had to have a tracker, went with Adrian Flux who supplied one. The subscription is part of the insurance quote. Saga were a bloody nightmare, although we were insured with them, they wouldn't insure us to collect our new Hymer until we'd fitted an approved (by them) tracker. Trouble was, living up in the Highlands, even Inverness has no tracker suppliers or fitters, they come up from Edinburgh/Glasgow.

Depends on van value. My current van is the first that all insurers require a tracker. If your van value is below say 70k then don't get a tracker. They only help the insurance company.
This van doesn't have an alarm and never affected insurance. ( also less of a nuisance to us)
Immobiliser usually come as standard.

They don't ask for anything on my van

They.must be very confident no one would steal it

NFU told me the only device they are interested in is a Cat 5 Tracker.

We needed a tracker to get insurance. New van in 2021

I've just been getting quotes and most companies wouldn't insure the van in a car storage compound with electric gates cctv and 6ft fencing because it wasn't dedicated motorhome storage but they would I sure on my drive at home with no security not even a picket fence ots bloody ridiculous they all make the rules up as they go along
