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

Google door restrainers.

What you want to consider is either a peep hole thingy or a video
camera/audio link. You can get ones that bring up a picture on the
TV. Plus a recorder if you want.


Door restrainers does not bring up very much.
I think a peep hole could be an idea.
A camera would blow my mind, I spent ages today working out why the
telly was not pushing sound through the speakers!
Thanks Harry.


Peepholes are used by most elderly folk around here. I didn't think
you were that old yet.
So, what if you came across 5 or 6 very big lads cycling on the
pavement?


As ALWAYS your contribution to this group and any other group is zero.
The class clown you are and always will be.
What a fool you really are.
