I'm looking for one of these. Not a beefy guy with his arms crossed but a
metal latch thingy that is an alternative to a door security chain.
They are called door security guards in the US - I used to have one on my
apartment door there & you tend to get them on hotel room doors. In UK the
preference seems to be for pathetic flimsy bath plug chains that snap off
on a slight breeze (well, that's what happened to mine).
Here's a photo of what I mean http://images.orgill.com/200x200/1133412.jpg
My google searches have led nowhere - if only I knew what they were called
here. My neighbour has one that he insists he bought in B&Q but I've
never seen one there and the staff look at me blankly when I ask. Which
is pretty much how they always look anyway.
