What door will be resistant? on the thief

Thieves enter their homes by the easiest route for them, including the front door, if they decide that this is the weakest element. And this is what happens if the door does not have anti-burglary protection.

A classy door

It's hard to disagree with the statement that the front door is a showpiece of our house or apartment. However, they should not only be nice and durable, but also equipped with effective anti-burglary solutions to ensure the safety of the household members and protect their property against theft.

I found an apartment, I found a home. I found a site where they are.

In terms of burglary resistance, the external doors available on the market are divided into 6 classes, however, the first four classes are used in single- and multi-family buildings. Standard doors are class 1, which means that they protect against burglars using only physical force. Class 2 is given to models with increased strength, which are resistant to burglary attempts made with the use of simple tools. Only doors classified as class 3 and 4 are popularly referred to as anti-burglary. The first of them successfully resist burglary attempts with the use of simple tools and a crowbar, and the second - are to meet the efforts of professionals who have "professional" knowledge and a drill or saw.

If we live in a guarded estate or in a block of flats with an intercom, you can choose a lower class door, e.g. second class. In single-family houses, especially when there are no other houses nearby, the door should be at least third class.

An important anti-burglary element is, of course, the anti-burglary lock. It is good to be self-locking, automatic and multi-point. Another very effective anti-burglary solution is the selection of an appropriate cylinder lock for the door lock. A good insert is protected against drilling and equipped with a system key that can only be added to the manufacturer, upon presentation of a special identification card.

Always locked

When entering the apartment, you should always lock the door behind you (and in professional terms - bolt the lock). Thieves rob houses but do not always break into them. If the front door is not closed, the thieves need a few moments to steal a purse, telephone and other valuables from the hall.
