Extra Security

Neighbours called me over when I pulled up this evening to tell me
that a gang of local yobs were trying my garage door last night.

Now, I think it would be better to add some extra security sooner
rather than later.

These kids being the type that would wreck my bike and car once into
the garge, even if they couldn't actually steal them [1], I'm thinking
of adding an extra lock or two to the garage door. What's the group
opinion on the ones that Motrax et al. do? Worth it, or would I be
better off nipping down to B&Q and picking up a regular
common-or-garden hasp and shackle?

Alternatively, can anyone recommend a decent marksmanship course and
source of illegal firearms

[1] Bike is chained down and datatagged, car is alarmed and
immobilised (two of!)

 

Hunt down the nastiest looking little thug in the locale and offer him a
regular bung?

 

Good plan

 

Been banned for some time now. Inergen and FM200 are the ones currently
used. Just set the system to discharge as they open the door that should
scare them off. A little more expensive than a burglar alarm admittedly but
perhaps more effective.

 

hire Tony Martin ?

Should make them shit themselves in the confines of a garage.

HTH

 

Why are they reporting this like it's new? IIRC PB ran a short story on a
similar device at least 5 years ago.....

I notice the bloke is trying to say it's new. It's not - such a device
has been on the market for years.

You forgot the bit where you place an ignition coil between the battery and
the door...

 

Just get a FOBD[1]!

**** of big dog!!

 

Well, you could stick it on some sort of surge cutout, so they get a nice

Just a thought

 

Sounds like a *fast* dog!

 

.... with an auto-reset ...

 

I havent got permanent power in my garage but I`ve got a Homebase shed
alarm (once the doors open you cant get to the siren etc and its
deafening). I`ve then got a garage defender which seems well made and
does the job - quite easy to fit as well

 

I didn't realise they were that cheap. I was thinking along the lines of a
fake (but a good fake) to see if its any deterrent or if they smash it. If
they don't smash it then invest in a real one.

 

Why **** around?

Bloody hell, that's really quite frightening. Do any of these books exist
on your bookshelf?

 

Locals do know who I am and for some reason I never have any problems!

 

JP was seen penning the following ode to ... whatever:

They drop all green bikes off at your front door just in case?

 

[risk of theft from garage]

It's the sirens and flashing lights whenever you leave or arrive that
gives the game away ;-)
