TruckVault Launches TacLock™ Mechanical Lock System
Expanding Secure Storage Options for Vehicle-Based Professionals
- New TacLock™ delivers advanced mechanical security with no batteries or electronics required.
- Customer-driven engineering reinforces TruckVault’s decades-long commitment to protecting what matters most.
SEDRO-WOOLLEY, Wash. — TruckVault®, a leading manufacturer of secure in-vehicle storage systems, today announced the launch of TacLock™, a proprietary mechanical lock system developed to provide an additional high-security locking option for customers who depend on their vehicles to protect valuable equipment.
The introduction of TacLock reflects TruckVault’s continued investment in product innovation and its long-standing focus on designing security solutions shaped by customer feedback. Developed by TruckVault’s engineering team, the lock was created to address customer demand for a robust mechanical locking system that combines ease of use with enhanced protection against unauthorized access.
“For more than three decades, we’ve built our reputation around one promise: helping customers secure what matters most,” said Ross Roberts, Marketing Director for TruckVault. “TacLock is the result of listening carefully to the people who use our products every day. They challenged us to push security even further, and our engineering team responded with a lock system that reflects TruckVault’s commitment to continuous innovation.”
TacLock is a fully mechanical lock that operates independently of batteries, wiring, or electronic components, providing reliable operation in a wide range of environments. The system incorporates several features designed to improve both security and usability, including:
- A patented-style clutch mechanism that disengages under excessive force to help resist forced-entry attempts.
- More than 1,500 possible combination codes.
- A key override for authorized backup access.
- Larger, glove-friendly dials for easier operation in demanding conditions.
- A noise-dampening strike plate engineered to reduce drawer movement and vibration while driving.
- Integration with TruckVault’s Strike Guard® locking architecture for enhanced drawer protection.
TruckVault engineers developed TacLock as part of the company’s ongoing product development process, which places significant emphasis on customer input from law enforcement agencies, public safety professionals, commercial fleet operators, tradespeople, and outdoor enthusiasts. Feedback gathered from customers across these industries continues to shape the evolution of TruckVault’s storage systems and security technologies.
“Security is never a finished product,” Roberts said. “Threats evolve, customer expectations evolve, and our products have to evolve with them. Our engineering philosophy is to continually refine every aspect of the ownership experience, and TacLock is a direct reflection of that mindset. It’s not innovation for its own sake—it’s innovation driven by the needs of the professionals who trust TruckVault every day.”
TacLock expands TruckVault’s lineup of locking solutions, giving customers greater flexibility to select the security system that best fits their operational needs while maintaining the durability and reliability expected from TruckVault storage systems.
