Best stock trailer security

We all know, in likely hood, if they want it they’ll get it!

But putting that aside for one moment…..what’s the best security device you can put on a stock trailer (ifor W 12ft 510 in my case)?

Hitch locks? What’s considered the best ones?
Wheel clamps?
ETc?

I’ve always been of the opinion that the best security measure you can take is the “most genius“ hiding place, so that they quite simply don’t know it’s there…..but some things are harder to hide than others, like the above 12ft block of Galv for example.

We've got tall sheeted yard gates which we keep locked and shut as much as possible, and installed solid haras type fence panels against the hedge on the roadside so they can't see what we've got from the road, then park everything like that the house end of the yard near the kennels, and the dogs go mad at the sight of anyone new.

Easy for us as got a separate small house entrance and not much kit!!

We’re fortunate to have a traditional farm building it fits in nicely close to the house. Then something that requires a jcb in front of it to move and it gives a degree of security
