Vodafone Automotive car alarm system supplied and installed at our Midlands workshop

Vodafone Van Alarm Installation Midlands

We supply and install Vodafone Automotive CAN-Bus alarm systems (48XX series, formerly Cobra 4615) from our professional workshop in Nuneaton, serving customers across the Midlands including Coventry and Leicester.

Many factory-fitted van alarms only protect the front cab area. On vehicles such as the Volkswagen Crafter and MAN TGE, the rear load space is often not fully monitored. This creates a vulnerability, particularly for trades vans and fleet vehicles where rear doors and cargo areas are commonly targeted.

Our Vodafone van alarm installation provides complete front-to-back vehicle protection, covering cab doors, rear doors and internal movement detection.

Rear Microwave Cargo Protection

In addition to cab ultrasonic sensors, the system uses a dedicated microwave sensor for the rear load area. This creates a monitored detection zone inside the cargo space that works even through shelving, racking and stored equipment. If movement is detected inside the rear of the van after the system is armed, the alarm will trigger immediately. This ensures the load area is properly protected — not just the cab.

ADR Driver Recognition System

The included ADR cards add an additional layer of authorisation. Without a recognised ADR card present inside the vehicle, the engine will not start — even if a key has been cloned. This significantly increases resistance against modern theft methods and diagnostic port attacks. If an ADR card is misplaced or its battery becomes flat, the system can be securely overridden using a personalised PIN code via the LED control panel. Tilt Sensor Included as Standard Every Vodafone 48XX van alarm includes a built-in tilt sensor. When armed, the system records the vehicle’s parked angle. If the vehicle is lifted beyond the programmed threshold — such as during wheel theft or recovery loading — the alarm will activate.

Does the Vodafone van alarm monitor all doors?

Yes. The system integrates with the vehicle CAN-Bus network and monitors all factory locking points, including rear and side doors.

Does it protect the rear cargo area?

Yes. Cab ultrasonic sensors and a rear microwave sensor provide full interior coverage, including the load space.

Will I need an extra remote fob?

No. The system operates directly from your original factory remote control.

What happens if I lose the ADR driver card?

The alarm can be securely overridden using your personalised PIN code via the LED control panel.
