M-Protect cargo security stops a break-in attempt at Gijsbers Installatietechniek
M-Protect’s cargo area security, built on powerful electronic deadlocks, has already proven its value across many sectors. This was once again confirmed recently at Gijsbers Installatietechniek. The incident clearly highlighted the importance of reliable security for companies that depend on their equipment every day.
The installation was handled by M-Protect distributor Adriaans Tech Solutions, a certified specialist in vehicle and equipment security. For Adriaans Tech Solutions, M-Protect is a natural extension of their existing range of high-quality security solutions.
“We secure passenger cars, commercial vehicles and work equipment and are fully Kiwa SCM certified for this. As insurers often require a Class 2/3 alarm or a Class 4/5 tracking system, M-Protect is the ideal complement to these solutions for us,” says Floris Adriaans, Managing Director of Adriaans Tech Solutions.
When Gijsbers Installatietechniek was looking for a solution to better protect its cargo area, the choice was quickly made. According to Adriaans, investing in M-Protect perfectly matches the needs of companies that travel daily with valuable and often irreplaceable tools.
Gijsbers Installatietechniek operates as an installation company with a large quantity of specialised tools that last for many years and are essential to its daily operations.
“We are an installation company and carry a lot of tools in our vans. When you insure them, everything is depreciated over three years, while our tools usually last five to seven years. For insurers they may have little value, but for us as a company they are extremely valuable. We simply cannot operate without them,” says Joost Gijsbers, Managing Director of Gijsbers Installatietechniek.
The company therefore looked for a solution that could also provide additional security during working hours, when doors are opened and closed more frequently.
That choice quickly proved to be the right one. Recently, someone attempted to gain access to the vehicle via the sliding door by drilling a small hole, a commonly used break-in method. Thanks to the M-Protect locking system, the cargo area remained fully secured. Although the door was damaged, all tools remained untouched. The investment paid off immediately: without the security system, the company would have had to replace tools worth thousands of euros.
This incident clearly demonstrates the importance of prevention. For Gijsbers Installatietechniek, it made the difference between a minor repair and a major financial setback, and between being able to continue working immediately or facing days of disruption due to the loss of equipment.
Together with its partners, M-Protect provides advanced security solutions that minimise damage in situations like these. The fact that the solution proved its value in practice at Gijsbers Installatietechniek was highly satisfying for both M-Protect and its partner Adriaans Tech Solutions, especially with the customer in mind. For reliable cargo area security, companies can confidently rely on M-Protect and its partners.
