Royal Welsh Show 2026: Fryars quad lock

Distributed in Wales by Dalton's ATV, the Lancashire-developed Fryars Quad Lock is designed to provide improved ATV and UTV security with a drive-in automatic wheel retention system which prevents a vehicle from being driven, carried or rolled from a building.

The clamshell is designed to lock closed as the vehicle is driven into it, with the lock positioned in a building corner to increase the difficulty of accessing the unit when closed. The floor retention bolts are also protected by the lock and the vehicle itself when closed.

The deadlock system can be released using a remote fob carried by the driver. However, in the event of a power failure, the deadlock can be manually opened using a removable barrel lock and unique key assembly.

Two versions are offered depending on the tyre size of the vehicle, and can be used to secure virtually all models of ATV and larger UTV machines.

The unit as shown retails at £1,295.
