Van and car alarm systems spot the things you’d never catch in time yourself – movement, impact or forced entry – and alert you instantly via a siren or your phone. Modern alarms protect against keyless theft, door peeling, tool theft and even towing. No matter if you drive a car, van or motorhome, the right alarm makes your vehicle a far more difficult target.

What is a car alarm system?
A car alarm system is a network of sensors that watch for very specific signs of theft – door opening, glass break, cabin movement, vehicle lifting or sudden impact. When something triggers it, the system reacts instantly: sounding a siren, sending a phone alert or locking down the immobiliser. Today’s alarms aren’t just noise-makers; systems like Pandora alarms or Cobra Car Alarms use Bluetooth ID tags, tilt sensors and CAN-bus integration to stop the exact methods thieves rely on, including relay attacks and van “peel-and-steal”.
The benefits of using vehicle alarms
- Instant alerts if someone opens a door, forces a lock, breaks a window or interferes with your battery.
- Adaptive sensors (like those in Pandora alarms) can tell the difference between a knock and a real break-in.
- Stronger van protection, with sensors on sliding and rear doors to stop tool theft — one of the UK’s fastest-growing crimes.
- Motorhome safety, protecting both the cab and living area, even when you’re still inside.
- Real prevention, not just a loud noise – a good alarm stops theft attempts before damage is done.
- More control, with phone alerts and app control so you always know what’s happening with your vehicle.
Pandora Car Alarms
Pandora car alarms are built for modern theft techniques, not the ones from 20 years ago. They use encrypted Bluetooth ID tags, shock/tilt/motion sensors and GSM/Bluetooth alerts to spot relay theft, door peeling, towing and battery tampering within seconds. Some models add immobilisation, GPS tracking and remote start. If you want an alarm that actively prevents theft rather than simply sounding off after it happens, Pandora is one of the strongest options on the market.
Cobra Car Alarms
Cobra Car Alarms offer solid, insurance-approved protection with OEM-style behaviour. Their ultrasonic interior sensors detect movement inside the cabin, while tilt sensors catch wheel theft or towing attempts. ADR driver-recognition cards prevent the engine from starting without you, even if thieves have your keys. They’re ideal if you want a clean, factory-feel alarm that still blocks keyless theft and forced entry.
