Speed Limiter Fitting Across the UK: Where We Install

AutoKontrol fits speed limiters across the whole of the UK, including London, Manchester, Liverpool, Birmingham, Leeds, Glasgow, and every region in between, through a nationwide network of approved mobile installers who come to your premises. Wherever your vehicles are based, we bring the fitting to you.

This page explains how our UK coverage works, the areas we serve, and why a national installer network matters when you are keeping a fleet compliant.

Mobile Fitting, Wherever You Are

Fleets do not want vehicles off the road to be fitted, and they do not want to drive to a distant workshop. So our model is simple: our installers travel to your depot, yard, or site.

  • We fit at your premises, so your vehicles stay where they are and your drivers stay on shift.
  • We cover the whole UK through SGH Connect, our parent group’s national installer network.
  • We handle single vehicles or whole fleets, and can fit a batch of vehicles in one visit to cut downtime and cost per vehicle.

The full process, timescales, and cost are covered on our speed limiter installation page.

Why a National Installer Network Matters

For an operator with vehicles in more than one location, a national network is not a nice-to-have, it is the difference between a consistent, documented fleet and a patchwork of local jobs.

  • One standard everywhere. Every vehicle is fitted with the same type-approved system, calibrated the same way, with the same certificate, whether it is in Kent or Aberdeen.
  • One point of contact. You deal with one supplier and one technical team, not a different installer in every city.
  • Faster rollouts. We can fit a multi-site fleet in a coordinated programme rather than one workshop at a time.

Professional Fitting vs Self-Fit

You will see DIY and self-fit speed limiter kits advertised, usually CAN-bus based. Those are aimed at the trade - auto-electricians and installers who fit vehicles for a living and take on the calibration and liability themselves.

Fleet operators are better served by professional fitting. A commercially operated vehicle needs a speed limiter that is type-approved, correctly calibrated, certified, and documented, because it has to satisfy the DVSA, your insurer, and your own duty of care. A professionally fitted AutoKontrol system delivers all of that, and the liability for a correct, compliant fit sits with us, not with you. For a fleet, that is the route that stands up to inspection.

Why AutoKontrol

  • EU/ECE R89 type-approved, certified by UTAC, TUV, and VCA, so it passes every DVSA inspection.
  • The DBW pioneer. We developed the Drive-By-Wire speed limiter the industry now treats as standard.
  • TrackSpeed, the only combined speed limiter and GPS tracker on the market, fitted in a single visit.
  • GeoKontrol geofenced speed zones for depots, sites, and low-speed areas.
  • UK designed and built in Chorley, Lancashire, since 1985, and part of Scorpion Group Holdings.
