Why would they make you press it twice? Surely everyone wants to activate deadlocks each time they leave their car? It'd be easier to do it with one press!

With vauxhalls you have to press twice to activate the deadlocks.  At least you did about 10 years ago, they might have changed the system since.

Enabled mine yesterday!

I've had the bleep noise for about 2 years and you'll be surprised how a simple feature can save a lot of hassle. Its very reassuring when you walk away from the car to hear the bleep as a confirmation that you've locked the car.

It's also a pretty cool sound, just sometimes makes you look a bit of a show-off. Particularly in underground car parks where it ends up being pretty loud.
