The benefit of a van deadlock is that they prevent locks from being picked as there is no spring mechanism vulnerability, and keep the van secure even if the central locking system is compromised. Also available are slam locks and cable guards, full details here.

VAN CHEVRONS AND LIGHTS
Chapter 8 is the Department of Transports guidance on the use of traffic signs and reflective road markings. Also known as traffic control, traffic management aims to direct and manage traffic safe and soundly benefiting both vehicles and people.
The regulations and requirements should be followed to reduce the risk of injury or danger of operatives and the public. This is done by increasing the visibility of the obstruction through chevron markings for vehicles.
U4.3 Vehicle conspicuity markings
U4.3.1. Chevron markings should be provided on the vehicles stopping on high-speed roads in
accordance with Part 2: Operations, Paragraph O5.2.3.
U4.3.2. The rear markings for cars and vans are upward facing chevrons in red and yellow alternating stripes, as shown in Figure 4.1. Each chevron stripe should be no less than 150mm in width (larger on big vehicles) and angled upwards between 45 and 60 degrees. The red stripes must be of retro‐reflective material, designed to maximise night‐time visibility. The fluorescent yellow stripes are non‐reflective, providing good daytime and dusk visibility and contrasting with the red. The chevrons should cover as much of the rear as possible withoutobscuring windows, lights or registration plates. The recommended specification for various types of vehicle are shown in Table 4.7.
Figure 4.1 Rear mounted chevron markings
U4.3.3. It is also acceptable to have complete coverage of red retro‐reflective material in place of chevrons on the rear but the red/yellow combination is generally considered to give the greater all round conspicuity.
U4.3.4. It is recommended that for higher speed roads retroreflective material to Class R3B is used. Class R2 material may be used to meet minimum retro‐reflective requirement for low-speed roads (under 40 mph limit). Material to Class R1 is not recommended for works vehicles.
