Security

We will be seeing our AS behind our church. It's secluded and feel we'll be OK but for piece of mind any recommendations on hitch locks, boots, etc

I bit the bullet and bought the "Proven Industries Airstream Coupler Lock."
It's expensive, but I have peace of mind. It's a beast!
If my trailer was in a public spot (not behind a gate) I'd add some kind of wheel clamp too.
If it's vandals, they'll just break windows or spray paint it. That's why we have insurance.

I use the SPOT Trace, Anti-Theft satellite tracking device. It doesn't need cell phone reception and will report any movement of your trailer and tracking as it is being towed.

We have the same lock and I am very happy with it. Along with the SPOT Trace, Anti-Theft satellite tracking device, you should be pretty safe. If you really want to be safe from theft you can add a couple of Denver Boots, or, in the extreme, take all the wheels off and put it on blocks. if it were legal, I would electrify mine

My 20 foot is a single axle so I bought the Proven Industries lock.
My 28 foot has two axles so I use the X-Chock between the tires with a lock on them and a normal coupler lock.

The x-chocks will not prevent it from being towed. Don’t ask how I know.

Built a “proven industry” type hitch lock out of AR500 steel.

Here are my blog post.

Any lock is just a deterrent. No lock is 100 percent secure. Some are a little more work than others.

Wife and I have a new 30' Serenity on order, April/May delivery. Just wondering if anybody actually uses a Denver boot and what the pro/con is.

This?

Welcome to the forum, John, and thanks for posting this question. Have you used one before, perhaps on another vehicle?

PS -- FYI on the main desktop version of this site [not the App], the search function above in the blue box works great. Here are previous mentions on AF for "Denver boot" --

This Stolen Trailers thread looks interesting IMO:
