Thanks Flyer5... being a dog rescue I've been able to be around all types of breeds. German Shepards are very loyal dogs that are very intelligent and protective. Black Shepard is Alfa in the pack. If your interest in adopting, i'll be glad to find you what you want.Flyer5 wrote:Wiz,Wiz wrote:Here is my door security, and if that doesn't work, intruder will need to get passed wife and me with our Glocks

for what its worth....most building codes don't allow outward swinging doors on homes-particularly northern states- the main reason is to eliminate entraptment due to snow and or ice build up outside
secondly....secured hinges are expensive...most inward swing (residential) doors have the hinges exposed inside the home....tap out the pins and bingo+ the door will come off

i gotta tell ya a good one...!freetown fred wrote:Rigar, that's all I can afford, this is Freetown after-all--real invigoratin in the AM--do you guys have REAL doors--
doing a COMPLETE renovation...house built in 1890... beautiful old farmhouse... but the misses wants it to look a little more contemporary..anyways...the front door....is a french door...with leaded GLASS...brass caming..whole 9 yards
back door-french door as well (full glass)
kitchen door-you guessed it-full view glass!
....we got the best locksets and dead bolts money can buy tho !
....you know....so we can feel SAFE !
there is a way to keep that from happening if you have an outward swing door and the hinge pins are tapped out.....Rigar wrote:secured hinges are expensive...most inward swing (residential) doors have the hinges exposed inside the home....tap out the pins and bingo+ the door will come off
In one of the hinge screw holes hammer a nail into the hole leaving about an inch +/- of the nail showing. grind off the nail head and drill out the wood in the door behind the mating hinge screw hole to accept this exposed part of the nail. Do this on the top and bottom hinges. When the door is closed the exposed part of the nail goes into the door and you cant pop it off.
