Last night at about 9PM in the dark there was a knock at the front
door. People never seem to see the door bell.
It was this dairy guy asking me if I'd like him to deliver milk. I
politely asked him if he could tell the time, he said "Sorry" and
cleared off.
If this had been 5 or 6 VERY big lads intent on no good I could have
been in trouble, even though I'm a big guy.

Question is:
Are these door chains that can be screwed into PVC doors and frames
any good?
I can't see the screws holding out against a good kick.

Thanks


We have a stout door chain on our front door. The fitting on the door
itself has four screw-holes and the screws are self-tappers that go
through the steel frame inside the PVC. The chain itself is screwed
onto the door frame also with self-tappers. The chain is like this
with a solid flat link in the middle. http://tinyurl.com/jtgonhn I
have total faith in it! Whether justified, I don't know; probably not,
but not much would stop a determined effort to gain entry.

Its that steel frame thing and finding it.
I just may give the company that fitted the door a ring. Better than me
drilling holes all over the PVC.

Thanks for the reply Chris.
