Shadow Immobiliser

What is the Shadow immobiliser?

The Shadow Immobiliser is the UK’s first connected immobiliser, allowing you to secure your vehicle with innovative and reliable technology. This means that the Shadow Immobiliser automatically immobilises your vehicle within 90 seconds of when your ignition is switched off with no additional steps or procedures for you to undertake. The Shadow Immobiliser is operated through the mobile app or presence of our unique Driver Detection Cards, eliminating the need to remobilise the vehicle through manual processes such as sequencing.

The system works by immobilising your vehicle as soon as the ignition is switched off. To start your vehicle, you will need to have the card or the secure mobile app open inside the vehicle. The simple to use cards are rechargeable via USB and the App is available for Android and Apple devices.

The brand new Shadow Immobiliser is the first app-based immobiliser to be launched anywhere in the UK, offering an additional layer of security in order to protect your vehicle from theft. At a time where violent vehicle crime is increasing and thieves are becoming ever more innovative in their methods, the Shadow Immobiliser is the most secure method of protection for your vehicle, and the most convenient solution for the driver.

Insurance expenses, potential loss of No Claims Bonus, time and expense of replacing your vehicle, not receiving a correct market value settlement, loss of sentiment and emotional distress are just some of the many implications you could face if your vehicle is stolen. With hot hatches, family cars, appreciating classic cars, luxury and commercial vehicles being targeted everyday by organised criminals, protect your vehicle from being stolen with a Shadow Immobiliser.
