Automotive, Travel, Boat, and Utility trailer and property theft is on the rise in the U.S. along with other vehicles and cargo. According to recent reports:
"We are thrilled and honored to work with Genuine Parts Company," said Larry Thomas, Altor Locks Chief Revenue Officer. "This partnership expands our reach in one of our four key verticals – Automotive. Marine, RV/Camping, and Utility trailers are the others."
Altor’s US Patent 11,766,905 B2 was issued in 2023 for a premium lock specifically engineered to stand up to thieves using angle grinders, reciprocating saws, drills, lock picks, pry bars and hammers. Conventional locks on the market can be compromised in 120 seconds or less. The innovative ICON survived a concentrated attack with an angle grinder, lasting more than 1 hour and 32 minutes, using 14 blades, and eight battery packs. (See the testing video here).
The ICON Trailer Lock is made with over twenty pounds of high quality (or premium) cast steel hardened to 450 Brinell making it able to withstand a lot of force. Common conventional locks use cheaper low carbon steel which is more malleable and vulnerable to saw blades and drill bits. In addition to the patented radial fin design, the ICON features a premium disc detainer lock core, extreme weather resistant seals and one-piece design for easy lock and go experience.
