A fogger, a really bright strobe, and a siren loud enough to wake the dead will do the trick.

Have no mains electric in garage so would need to be battery powered or linked to mobile
It it within the curtilage of your house?
Ah - not easy to get electricity to it, then.

Why dont you just get a bigger van with good locks

Make sure you leave the keys in them ready for the thieves to open.
Insult to injury would be to have your doors peeled and your tools stolen anyway.

That is scary...
I've got dead locks and slam locks. I'm told now they are cutting the roofs open..
Nothing is invincible all you can do is make it as hard as possible so they move on to a easier target since I've had locks on my vans I've not even had an attempt. I'm not crowing as I know there is always a first time.

Yeah going through my roof is a strong possibility. I have three doors on van so that would mean three dead lock bolts I guess.
Going back to the site vaults. As it's lots of garden tools would have to be roomy. Worry the biggest one might be impractical, I mean I wouldn't be able to move it. My garage is already full of stuff everywhere. Need to have a think about all this.

Just spoke to someone who sells these. He said thieves might tie the vault to their car and drag it down the road lol. He said that's why it needs bolting down. Not sure if he's lying or not though

Put nothing past a thief.
This is most of the stuff which needs to go in the site box. Stihl blower, multi tool, chop saw, drills etc. U think the biggest chest?
The other photo is garage its going in, where would you put it in there? At back near retaining wall

Chain the box up with a good quality chain, padlock and ground anchor like they use to secure motorcycles in garages with. Won’t be easily moveable then.
How will having the box there suddenly make you tidier?
I can ask that, BTW, ' cos I'm the same, so I'm not criticising, but if you have it at the back then it will very likely end up inaccessible.
