Seriously think about fitting quailty deadlocks for your mk 7 transit, if not already fitted, quite a few brands around.

Not going to answer exactly because I have got mk6 transit connect on a 06 plate. Maybe Mk7 is different system? We have a local general lock smiths that cut a key and cloned the chip. I can't remember how much it cost but wasn't to pricy. I'll guess at £20+ ish. Timpsons sometimes have a half price offer on van and car keys and also can clone the chip.Just phone your local lock smiths and see what that say

 

Have to say. First thing any van I get has is a secondary locking system.

Manufacturers standard locks are simply not fit for purpose.

Currently have L4V deadlock on side door and rear doors on my Relay.

Three times I have had someone have a real go. Three times they havent got in.

They even tried to jack the side door open and the lock didnt give.

 

For the first 4 years I never bother with the l4v locks fitted to my van. Only had 1 key and when I enquired the lock Smith wanted paperwork and proof of ownership so I never bothered. Seen video of transit break in which was so simple I flapped. I looked at getting a key cut and to start locking doors with l4v locks. £10 off ebay for spare key and I use now. Brilliant

 

If fitted then use them, simple, even in daytime, tools aren't safe in a van.

If I had a good van, then I would fit a vehicle tracker Cat 6 or more likely the better spec Cat 5, yes, it's expense, but save you a lot of hassle, if your van was nicked,some offer a duration of vehicle ownership subscription.

 

You can even buy a Tibbe key on Amazon that will open most Fords.

As other have said, dispense with the Ford keys and get some after market ones
