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
Door chains are certainly low security, but definitely better than
nothing. They do help in some situations where nothing else does, so
are worth the trivial cost. Many invaders don't kick doors in. Door
bars are a similar but tougher option.
If it's 6 large lads, just don't open the door.
Yes, they are better than nothing.
I rather think that not opening the door fully is better than having
to take
down 8 large lads.
Door chain I think it will be.
Thanks for your input.
Why are you scared of people I'm not?
He must be scared because he arms himself with chisel as well.
