Vehicle Immobilisers For Cars, Vans, HGVs & Motorhomes
Vehicle theft techniques are constantly evolving, making additional electronic security an increasingly important consideration.
A vehicle immobiliser works by preventing the engine from starting unless the correct authorisation is provided. Unlike a traditional alarm, which alerts you to an attempted break-in, an immobiliser focuses on preventing the vehicle from being driven away.
We offer immobiliser solutions for:
- Passenger Cars: Additional protection for everyday vehicles, performance cars and luxury vehicles.
- Commercial Vans: Enhanced security for work vehicles, helping prevent unauthorised starting and vehicle theft.
- HGVs & Trucks: Additional electronic security for commercial vehicles and heavy goods vehicles.
- Motorhomes & Campervans: Added protection for valuable leisure vehicles, helping prevent unauthorised engine starting.
Whether you're protecting a daily vehicle, a high-value performance car or a commercial fleet vehicle, we can help identify a suitable immobiliser.
Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser
Advanced PIN-Code Vehicle Security
The Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser is an advanced electronic vehicle security system designed to prevent unauthorised engine starting.
Unlike conventional immobilisers that rely on additional keys or remote controls, the Ghost uses a unique PIN sequence entered using the vehicle's existing buttons, such as steering wheel controls, dashboard buttons or centre console switches.
The system integrates with the vehicle's existing electronic architecture and communicates with compatible vehicle systems to prevent the engine from starting without the correct PIN sequence.
Even if a thief gains access to your vehicle keys, they cannot simply start and drive away without knowing the correct PIN.
How Does The Autowatch Ghost Work?
The Autowatch Ghost is discreetly installed within the vehicle and operates without the need for an additional visible key fob or remote control.
Before the vehicle can be driven, the driver must enter their personalised PIN sequence using the vehicle's existing controls.
Without the correct sequence, the immobiliser prevents the vehicle from starting or being driven away.
Autowatch Ghost Features & Benefits
- Unique PIN-Code Protection: Create a personalised PIN sequence using existing vehicle buttons.
- Key Cloning Protection: Provides an additional layer of security even if a thief has obtained a working vehicle key.
- Discreet Installation: No additional visible LED, key fob or remote control required.
- CANbus Integration: Communicates with compatible vehicle electronics.
- Customisable PIN: Set a PIN sequence that suits your requirements.
- Additional Security: Helps prevent unauthorised engine starting.
The Autowatch Ghost is particularly popular with owners of high-value, prestige and performance vehicles looking for additional protection against modern vehicle theft techniques.
Thatcham Category 2 Immobilisers
Additional Electronic Vehicle Security
Thatcham Category 2 immobilisers provide an additional level of electronic security by preventing the vehicle's engine from being started without the correct authorisation.
These systems are designed to immobilise key vehicle circuits, helping prevent unauthorised starting and driving.
Category 2 immobilisers can be particularly useful for vehicles requiring an approved additional immobilisation system or owners looking to enhance their existing vehicle security.
Depending on the system selected, features can include:
- Electronic engine immobilisation.
- Additional protection against unauthorised starting.
- Integration with compatible vehicle electronics.
- Key or transponder-based authorisation, depending on the system.

A Category 2 immobiliser can be an effective addition to your vehicle's existing security, providing another obstacle for potential thieves.

SmarTrack Shadow
The SmarTrack Shadow Immobiliser is an advanced electronic vehicle security system designed to prevent unauthorised engine starting and protect against modern vehicle theft techniques.
Unlike traditional immobilisers that require a PIN sequence to be entered before driving, the SmarTrack Shadow uses an intelligent Driver Detection Card or compatible smartphone app to authorise the driver.
Without an authorised Driver Detection Card or the appropriate authorisation, the vehicle cannot be started.
SmarTrack Shadow Features & Benefits
- Automatic Immobilisation: The system automatically arms when the vehicle is switched off.
- Driver Detection Card: Vehicle starting is authorised through a dedicated detection card.
- Smartphone App: Compatible app functionality provides additional control and convenience.
- Protection Against Key Theft: Adds another security barrier if your vehicle keys are stolen.
- Protection Against Key Cloning: Helps prevent a cloned vehicle key from being used to drive away.
- Covert Installation: Discreetly installed within the vehicle.
- Service Mode: Allows temporary authorisation when your vehicle needs servicing, maintenance or valeting.
- Scheduled Immobilisation: Scheduling functionality can be useful for businesses and fleet operators.
- Multi-Vehicle Functionality: A compatible Driver Detection Card or app account can be used with multiple vehicles.
- No Ongoing Subscription Fees: The standard SmarTrack Shadow immobiliser does not require a recurring monitoring subscription.
Commercial Van Immobilisers
Commercial vans are valuable assets for businesses, tradespeople and fleet operators. Losing a vehicle to theft can result in lost working hours, replacement costs and disruption to everyday operations.
An additional electronic immobiliser can help protect your commercial vehicle by preventing unauthorised engine starting.
We offer immobiliser solutions for a range of commercial vans, including modern electronic systems designed to integrate with compatible vehicle electronics.
Whether you're looking to protect a single work van or improve security across your commercial vehicles, we can help identify an appropriate solution.
Immobilisers can also form part of a wider commercial vehicle security package alongside:
- Van Alarms.
- Deadlocks & Hook Locks.
- Anti-Peel Protection.
- Latch & Handle Shields.
- GPS Vehicle Tracking.
- Dash Cameras.
Combining electronic and physical security can provide a more comprehensive approach to commercial vehicle protection.
HGV & Truck Immobiliser Systems
Heavy goods vehicles and commercial trucks represent significant investments, making vehicle security an important consideration for transport and logistics businesses.
An additional immobiliser can help protect against unauthorised vehicle starting and provide another layer of electronic security.
We offer immobiliser solutions for compatible HGVs and commercial vehicles, with options dependent on the vehicle's existing electronic systems and security requirements.
Whether you're looking to improve security on an individual truck or multiple commercial vehicles, speak to Exec Spec about the available options.
Motorhome & Campervan Immobilisers
Motorhomes and campervans are valuable vehicles that can be particularly attractive targets for thieves.
Whether you use your motorhome for occasional holidays, extended touring or full-time travel, protecting it against theft is essential.
An additional immobiliser provides another layer of security by helping prevent unauthorised engine starting.
We offer immobiliser solutions for compatible motorhomes and campervans, including advanced electronic systems and additional immobilisation options.
From compact campervans to large luxury motorhomes, we can help you choose a suitable security system.
