Do you need locking turnbuckles? Take a moment to consider if the following is important to you:

1) Deter and prevent turnbuckle theft
With locking turnbuckles, it greatly increases the effort put forth on behalf of a thief, decreasing the likelihood of theft from taking place.

When recalling stories about stolen FastGuns, Torklift General Manager Jay Taylor recalled an instance in which a thief tried to resell the stolen turnbuckles in the exact campsite in which he stole them.

 “I couldn’t believe that someone would walk up, nonchalantly take the turnbuckle off the camper and try to resell it to other campers at the same campsite,” said Taylor. “Luckily the original owner approached the person and was able to get the stolen FastGuns back. Luck was surely on his side.”

2) Leave the truck camper at the campsite, worry-free
As avid travelers, many of us who camp often like to explore. It’s these adventures while out on the road that make experiencing the outdoors so enjoyable. With locking turnbuckles, leave your equipment at the campsite and go enjoy a scenic hike, fish along the shoreline of a mountain lake or take a bike ride with your family. You won’t need to give any thought to leaving your gear. Traveling should be leisurely and worry-free, right?
