Durite adds brake light cameras to growing safety range

Vehicle safety specialist Durite is expanding its van range with reverse-view brake light cameras.

Brake light cameras are retrofitted to the vehicle, replacing the existing brake light assembly and enhancing rear visibility, whilst retaining brake light function and ensuring compliance with safety regulations. Offering a wide-angle view, they provide the driver with extra visibility and reduce manoeuvring errors - particularly when reversing.

Light commercial vehicle operators can choose from a range of universal kits compatible with major makes and models. Alternatively, they can create a customised solution using Durite’s online kit builder.

Covering 10 leading brands including Ford, Mercedes and Volkswagen, the kit builder features 11 cameras and a choice of mirror-mounted monitor or 7-inch display screen.

Both monitors have dual camera inputs, allowing for the addition of a side-mounted camera where needed.

John Nobbs, Durite UK Sales Manager said: “Durite Brake Light Reverse Cameras offer van operators another way to further enhance road safety while also protecting vehicle assets. This is an innovative and robust range of van camera solutions specifically devised by Durite to improve safety. They provide greater visibility, reducing the risk of collisions and accidents, which in turn leads to reduced repair and insurance costs as well as minimising van down time.” 

Each kit comes with all the necessary cables needed to power the cameras and brake lights, while sending the signal from the cameras to the monitor. They are designed to be quick and easy to install.

“Our online brake light camera kit builder makes it easy for van operators to find and purchase the right kit for all types of van,” added John Nobbs.

A claim agreed by Glen Bugden, owner of Auto Electrical Supplies Southampton Ltd: “Durite offers one of the most comprehensive ranges of brake light cameras and it’s useful to have one place to go to find the kit I need. Plus, as the camera is a direct replacement for the existing one, it makes installation faster, neater and more straightforward.”
