SORRY THIS IS SO LONG I JUST WANTED TO TELL YOU GUYS THE WHOLE STORY. Well my sister lives directly across the street from me and today I went to get the mail at 12:30 and everything was fine but when I left for work at 1:30 there was a box in her drive way directly in front of her garage so I went over there to see what it was. It had a bunch of cards (like birthday cards) in it so I pick it up and went to her side door (see picture attached of my house hers is the same) in the breeze way in between the garage and house and checked both doors and they were locked and since I was too lazy to go back across the street to get her keys, I just left the box in the breeze way. So while I was at work she called me at about 5:10 pm and was crying saying her house was broken into and they stole all her stuff, So I flew home doing 115 mph in my toyota. When I got there the box was right where I left it but now the side door was kicked in and the front door was wide open. They stole her 60 something inch tv, a 27 inch tv, computer, monitor, keyboard, mouse, misc. jewlery, printer, digital camera and they disconnected her stereo and moved it to another room but didnt take it. The stupid cops took forever to get there and when they did they told us they would have a forenic team call her tomorrow to set up a appointment to check the house out. Now what kind of crap is that I had to close the front door, repair the side door so I could lock it for the night and I had to trampel all through the house. So what damn good is checking fingerprints now? Well about the box it turns out it wasnt hers or mine and it was full with someones holiday cards. I'm thinking that the theif put it there to know if someone came home because you would have had to move the box to get in the garage, Or that it was there decoy to come up to the house and if someone was there they could have just said hey is this your stuff I found it. Now get this my sister goes to the model home to tell the realitor what happend and the lady told her someone elses front door was just kicked in at about 3:30 and the ladies alarm went off. When the lady got there her door was kicked in and nothing was stolen, she called the cops and they took a report. So they most have hit my sisters house then hit that one and hauled butt when the alarm went off. So the question is how can I secure mine and her house better? I would hate for someone to steal my pride and joy sitting in the garage. We have alarm people coming out tomorrow for her house and mine, but I couldnt believe how easy it would have been to kick a door in. Basically the dead bolt only goes into a peice of molding not a 2x4 or anything. It just ripped the door frame to peices. This kind of crap scares me since I live alone with nothing for self defense. How can I make our houses more secure? How can I make the doors harder to kick in? Please help
so this doesnt happen to me.
