Hi -
My old mum is delighted with her new upvc porch, but wants a security chain on the outer door. I can think of various methods involving self-tappers, toggle bolts etc, but don't feel wholly confident that they'd hold properly. Is there a 'proper' way to fix security devices to plastic doors & frames? Thanks in advance! |

If not then glue and a large plate is probably best. |
