Reverse tight up to a wall, or back of another trailer.

Why do you want to lock them?
I cant reverse it up to a wall its in a forest in the middle of nowhere, I want to turn it into a storage container so hence why I really need those back doors secured as much as possible
Thing is mate, it doesn’t matter what kind of lock you put on, if somebody wants in they will get in, especially if in a remote area.

look up container lock
Rob is right. Remote area, doesn’t matter if the back doors are more secure than Fort Knox, they’ll cut through the side if they want to be in.

Does a petrol disc cutter make a noise in the woods, if no one is there to hear it?

Yep! 
The Coriolis component of acceleration module was fully booked! 
The better the lock the more the ■■■■■■- will wonder what’s in it 
a couple of rotties with aids would work well enough as a macodougall repellent?

Well obviously there’d be no one there to hear it. They’d all be in the kitchen with their eyes pressed up against the fridge checking if the light really does go off when they close the door!
If it’s a normal box trailer then the back doors are the least of your worries.
They will just peel the roof back.
See if you can get hold of an old skelly with a unwanted container on it. That would be more secure than a simple box van.
Containers that I have seen where they want a bit of security - they box the padlock in with a heavy steel surround. That means that you would have to cut through that first to get at the padlock. One place I used to deliver to had a massive security lock and bolts on the doors at the front - if you went round the back, there was a smaller door with a key:)
Locks only keep honest people out.
Need a lock like in containers where you’d need to cut through to first to even get to the door lock.
Fly By Nite gig trucks usually have some heavy duty locks on them that cover the door hinges, sure I’ve seen a few transam trucks with the same idea.
Container locks are good if it will fit your van / trailer
