ATV Theft – In a survey of British farmers over 80% said they had been a victim of theft or were waiting to be a victim.

Losses to British farmers from ATV theft and other farm machinery hit a seven-year high of £50m in 2018, according to a leading rural insurer.

A 26% rise in claims for stolen farm vehicles, such as tractors and quad-bikes, to £7.4m last year, was behind the overall increase.

Could the QuadVice – Quad bike anti-theft device be the answer to finally reducing or halting atv theft?

Over the past 5 years, extensive trialling and testing has been carried out by farmers, security professionals, retired police officers and the occasional ex-thief.

A spokesperson from Quadvice commented “we wanted to come up with something that provided quad bike security but also ease of use for the user. No one wants to be fiddling around under a dirty quad fitting security devices, the user simply drives on to the Quadvice and it locks it in place”

Most ATV thefts happen overnight from outbuildings away from the farmhouse or by opportunistic thieves that are waiting for quad bikes and other farm machinery to be left unattended for short periods, the Quadvice allows the quad to be parked securely almost anywhere.
