how do i secure my door from break ins
Permalink  

hi all, i lost my keys today and had to break into our van. heres the problem. i have the door with the fly screen in the middle of it. all i did was put a screw driver in the fly screen door and push open the fly screen to get to the main lock of the door, and it was open. took 30 sec
how can i fix this so that when i leave the van some where they cant break in
any ideas would be great, pics would also be good
hope you can help
regards peter

Hi ..

I fitted this night chain (cost around $12 at Bunnings).

Works like a normal night chain but you can open it with a key from outside  ..

Hope this helps.

Hi

we have an Avan 19ft hard top van To secure the door I fitted a Fiamma grab handle to the van that swings across the door and locks into place preventig the door from being able to be opene.It also aids in entering the van when in the open position especially after long happy hours.You can see them on Fiamma website as there 2 sizes available.

cheers
