Imagine the face of a burglar finally getting into a home after all the securities and laminated windows only to realize the home owner is a minimalist
A bed, TV, and a sofa is enough for a home and the other stuff for the kitchen and bathroom too
If old budget tools, books, and old DVD's were valuable I'd be a prime target. Luckily most of my tools came from a pawn shop, my books are heavy in bulk and DVD's sell for a dollar each at pawn shops now days. When someone broke into my house they trashed the place. Probably because I have cheap taste that wasted their time.
But a minimalist has more high quality things, they tend to keep high quality items.
@@Summer-xw8xn not exactly. there are frugal minimalists & cheap minimalists...
@@BIGGELATO yes, I didn't mean that all minimalists are like that. But most do consider the quality of the items that they buy, it's wiser for them to do that because it'll last longer. good quality but not necessarily expensive.
The best security we had was Max, the senior across the street that sat outside or in his garage every day.
That'll be me when retired. 😆
Maybe we can buy a life like manequin and sit him on the front porch.
Ours was named Al
Speaking of Max in the paste tense, implies he is no longer with us. You have my consonances. Maybe now Max in heaven sitting watching your home...
Yes! We have one of those...💜
Some asshat tried breaking into my house 2 days ago. My entire door frame is 1/4" steel plate and the door is soild wood covered in 1/8" steel plate, they spent 12 minutes trying to get in and failed. I pulled a good clear pic of their faces off the security footage. They were both arrested today.
🤣🤣 what a tool that dude was.
i cant blame people if they wish severe penalties against the intruders, and not a comfortable life in prison paid by our tax dollars.
@@specialstone9153 🤣🤣
You got lucky, usage has a few intruders in the past and it's no fun.
AHAHAH GG
I was a California prison doctor. I learned much by talking to my patients. Most drug addicts are burglars. They are usually desperate because they are getting " dope sick". They are in a hurry, looking for an easy score and to buy more dope. Daytime burglars are more afraid of an armed homeowner than police. An armed victim could spell instant death. Alarms cut their working time dramatically. Most addicts will go to your neighbor's house without the alarm. Buy a safe and bolt it down properly. Don't put your good jewelry in your bedroom. They head for the mater bedroom first..that is where the jewelry is. Buy a secure & bolted down lock box for your protection gun...Your gun could otherwise be used against you if you come home.
Keep your gun with you. Then if you come home to someone in your house.....................
Very good insights. Thank you for sharing. To understand the opponents mindset is important.
A safe should be invisible.
@@williamevans6522 Good point---However, the typical burglary takes 7 minutes. The alarm will reduce that time. Can't get into safe in that time unless they have scoped out a business or residence known to have extremely valuable stuff.
Sadly, here in Canada, we can't protect ourselves with a gun even in our own home : (
Burglars must be having a hell of a time with more people working from home than ever before.
Haha, and no sympathy for them
He he
🤣🤣🤣
If any burglars turn up while you are working at home, pretend you think they are the new house cleaner from the agency & get them to wash up & hoover & make coffee & lunch. Just do not let them see your valuables.
@@sarahstrong7174 Free slave labor or death by shock/embarrassment.
_Neighbor calling:_ Hey, there's some guy sneaking into your back door, and it's not the usual guy who has "lunch" with your wife every Wednesday afternoon.
lol the details
Reply to Bellhop.....a robbery was averted but a divorce ensued..possibly a murder committed
😂😂😂.... 👏👏
Hold up
Man catch wife cheating....the man is now your helper....he will now support your wife....you support your children...
And for the deadbolt plate, always use 3" or longer wood screws to make sure they go all the way into the actual 2x4's and not just the cheap and thin wood frame that comes with door. They give you only 1" screws to hold this in. And a burglar can kick the door in off it's frame easily. We had a bad break in, in our neighborhood into 9 homes. Fortunately ours was not hit. But 8 of the 9 fairly new built homes were robbed. The only one that wasn't was the one with 2 boot prints on his front door, which remained locked. That owner, who works construction, told us this tip.
Right on.
Every little bit helps, but those screws only go through the last 1/2" of the stud, so they often blow out with a kick-in. I used a couple brackets with 4" structural screws directly into the entire stud, with a metal bar to prevent a kick-in on both sides of the door.
You can put longer screws in both sides of the hinges too. And don't put jewelry or any other valuables in your sock drawer. It's the first place they'll look. A less obvious place is to take the bottom drawer out of your dresser, put stuff in there, and put the drawer back in. Ig they have time, thieves are going to take all the drawers out and dump the contents out, so they'll see stuff in there and anything taped to the bottom of a drawer, but they usually don't like hanging around very long. My basement has a door like many of them do, and I replaced the interior door knob with a house entry door knob. I keep it locked at all times when I'm not working in the basement. I have a key hidden somewhere in the basement in case I lock myself down there, since I never carry my keys on me in the house.
A cop told me that burglars are in it for the electronics. 60 seconds in and out. I don't have even a TV. I keep locks locked at all times. @@BigHarryBalzac
Another reason to avoid buying new. Most houses new are totally crap.
A nice couple of big dogs. My two have never minded any tradesmen or visitors,decorators ,repairmen, not a sniff! 3am they made it clear they wanted out into the garden. The security lights snapped on as a figure went back over my 6foot fence like an Olympian. The greyhound got there first, the German Shepherd next. Not one bark, just wow did they get treats for it.
About time of burglaries, I learned from an ex-NAVY Seal that there are 2 types of burglars: the ones that want your stuff come during the day, the ones that want YOU come at night.
Szariq opp creepy....
Burglar comes to take stuff if comes to do threat of violence or worse physical violence can be robber, abductor, violent assailant or even a murderer.
yeah most burglaries happen during the day cause people are at work
Or those who want YOU to tell them where your valuables are, rush into your garage as you come out of your car. Always close the garage door first before exiting your car.
Well my mom got robbed at night in 2011, luckily she was awake to call the cops (they were trying to steal her car)
I like the idea of leaving a wrong key and glue it under the mat.
Ultimate troll lmao
I’m getting my glue right now!!!
I’ll have a secrity camera and laugh while talking to the police LOL😂😂😂😂😂😂😁😁😁🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Doing dat tonight
Yep I'm totally doing that lol
I was friends with a "retired burglar" when I was younger. He told me the best ways to protect your home are physical & mechanical deterrents. Lighting, LARGE BREED HERDING DOGS Like German Sheppard dogs, storm windows and doors, multi pane, laminated glass, STEEL / FIRE RATED DOORS AND STEEL DOOR FRAMES with small windows, at least two deadbolts and handset especially on the door leading to the garage. Garage door should also be windowless. Elderly neighbors with too much full time at home. He actually preferred robbing homes with an alarm system because he has plenty of time to work; especially in the suburbs. He knew he had at least 30 seconds before the alarm would trip and the alarm company calls to confirm the alarm. If no answer the alarm company calls the police. Knowing the response times are at lest 3 - 10 minutes he had little worries about the home.
one overlooked security risk people who do a lot of regular outsourcing for house cleaning, yard work, childcare, cooking. the more people familiar with your property the higher chance of being robbed.
This is why we do our own work.
My anti robbery plan is simple: I own nothing of value.
Reminder: You have, 38 likes.
What you think is not of value to you, is same that is valuable to another.. flakka zombies find your pair of socks valuable enough to break in.
bruh
my plan: have fancy cameras but have a messy af house and have my valuables at the front door piled by shoes i bought to pile so they cant tell whats where, sure id hate myself for being messy but security is a higher priority right? XD
Just become a hoarder and burglars will have an anxiety attack before they get too deep.
What if: the burglars are actually giving us tips to make their robberies easier.

Was thinking the aame thing

So true about the daytime. I was a predictable person when I got burgled back in the 90's. I used to leave at 08:45 every morning and get home between 19:30 and 22:15 every night. This was 5 - 7 days a week. The unit complex (6 levels high - no security) had stairs leading to every level. I was on level 6. One day the thieves ??? came in while I was at work. They broke into my place and the place next door with the old guy in it. They found a tool box with a padlock on it so they levered it open to find nothing interesting inside (lock means something is good in there). They then went to steal my computer, lifted it up with the cables still connected then noticed 3 weeks wages hidden under it so they took the cash, my cheque book and left the computer dangling by its cables. I was working 60 hour weeks so that was about 180 hours of hard work lost. The items stolen were the only things of value. Only other stuff was a bed, floppy disks, clothes, a beat up old fridge, a beat up washing machine.
I am sorry that happened to you.
It was different for our family. The burglars actually entered our bungalow during the wee hours of the morning when we were all deep in sleep. Thank God, I did not go to the bathroom for my usual emptying of my bladder mid sleep when that happened or who knows what they would have done to me and my family. All of us couldn't sleep for months after we were burglarized. My brother's friend had the same experience but unfortunately, they were awake and tied up when their house was broken into. They saw how the robbers took their furniture and other smaller items. The only good thing was they were not killed.
@@whatevergoesforme5129, that's awful 😢!! Please consider arming yourself and your family. Buy a good firearm, and train with it. Make it a family activity, and you will have a much better advantage over these crooks!
@@JD-lq2efI agree!
Sounds like your predictable behavior was the problem back then. I never buy computers that are worth very much and I don't store anything on my computer that isn't backed up on a separate external drive. I never leave cash just lying around at home and a checking account can be shut down in minutes. Burglars likely would not have gone through the hassle of hauling heavy objects down flights of stairs.
my life has absolutely no routine, a burglar would cry in confusion trying to decode my activities
That’s a very smart idea also your like me absolutely no routine
I'ma pizza they will not notice me
Same
😂 that's the best way of anti burglarism
Same
When installing door strike plate, never use the short screws that come in most packages.. BUY 3 inch screws
Yes they totally missed that!
Drywall screws baby.... 😆
Buy landmines
okay but first how many houses did you rob
I use nine inch nails, so when they try to kick the door down Trent Reznor sings to them instead!
I used to be amused by my elderly neighbour. "You leave early for work everyday, 6:05!" 😂 Now I'm that elderly neighbor, and it's like watching the weirdest reality show through my windows. 😮😂 I get the entertainment value, and they get extra security.
Concealed carrying WHILE YOUR ARE AT HOME was highly encouraged during my training class for the exact reasons in this video. I carry at home frequently as well as keeping 'protection' in a hidden spot in my home office in the event a break in occurs while I am working from home. You will never regret being prepared. You WILL regret not being prepared if something does happen.
Just put a sign "CoVid Positive isolation house." No one's gonna attempt to rob your home.
I don't think it will stop them
Best strat yet
Funny. But they'll definitively see that, over the course of a few days, people are still going in and out of the house - thus, they'll call the bluff.
Won't deter a burglar who already had it and is immune now...
You'll get burgled by the Orange Putin or one of his MAGA or Proud Boy goons - apparently he's "immune" and they're all too genetically pure to be affected by COVID...
Me: checking if my house window is laminated Me: forgetting that I live on the fourth floor of a building
I lived on the 4th floor of a building in Edmonton and, one night I was real drunk and I locked myself outside in the middle of the night with no shoes and only shorts and a t-shirt on, it was -5 out and I climbed up to our fourth floor balcony to get back inside. If a drunk guy can do it, a thief certainly can!
I got burgled by racoons! And now i have a home alone defens system
Me who lives on the 11th floor
🤣🤣🤣
True...yeah one night a robber once got in the front door and said 'Kate! Daddy's Home!' I freaked out because my dad was supposed to come back at 9 and it was only 8:59 (true) and i went to the kitchen..on the way i saw the robber sat on a couch and i took the frying pan(seeing the little girl i was ) hit him in his head...i think he went to sleep and tommorow i saw my dad got a bruise on his head I thought'OH NO THE ROBBER HIT MY DAD WHEN I WASNT LOOKING' That was a made up story to make u guys question about ur dad
How to avoid burglaries: Step 1: keep lights on Step 2: dont install high fences Step 3: create a trap that makes burlgars fall into secret dungeon having to complete deadly challenges and then get teleported into random unknown island
So... force them into a LARP D&D session?
Home alone in real life... I didn't see that coming
step 4: watch your bills go up
Their final resting place is the new rose garden bed.😏
nuke your own house
The only good part about my mother and I being disabled is that we literally have no schedule. Someone is almost ALWAYS home. We have a dog who looks (and sounds) like a Rottie pup. She's been our best defense. Plus she gives us cuddles and laughs. Bonus!
Agreed my pittie's bark makes their blood run cold.
True story here. Watch dogs don't have to be big. My mother was 77 years old and living alone except for her three adorable, loving, playful and sweet natured miniature silver poodles - the biggest one, a male, weighed about 30 pounds, the other two were females and weighed about 16-18 pounds each. One evening shortly after dark a very nicely dressed man (in his early thirties) broke into my mother's kitchen and these three otherwise sweet natured and beautifully coiffed, fluffy lap dog poodles went absolutely BERSERK on the burglar. They VERY viciously snapped at and held the intruder at bay in a corner of the kitchen for roughly 25 minutes until the police arrived. The police thought it was a hilarious situation and happily threw this turd into the slammer - he received some hard time for his misadventure. Fluffy, sweet natured dogs, even small ones, somehow understand when there is trouble and they DO take action to protect their family.
The retired robbers: well maybe I don't want to be the bad guy anymore

Years ago a robber kept getting inside multiple apartments with zero signs of a break in, they seemed to have a key. It was happening in at least four different apartment communities. The guy finally got caught turned out to be a former locksmith who had the tools to get in easily without breaking in
If you know how to make it, you know how to break it.
@ Kelly Kerr Who are you and how did you get in here? I'm the locksmith. And, I'm the locksmith. (RIP Leslie Nielsen.)
@@daleviker5884 Is this some kind of bust? Yes it's very impressive.
Lock picking is pretty easy to learn. I'm surprised more burglars don't learn it.
Ahh crap!
When I was living in Italy, after my wedding , they stole everything we got from wedding. Including all the cash and jewellery before we got to chance to put them in a bank. Carabinieri told us one of the new techniques is to watch wedding houses and put a gps under the newly weds car and when they arrive home they chase them and get the gps back from the car. Then they start watching you, your house, who lives with you, your routines etc. Then the first time they get the chance they enter your house. So we got robbed, as newly weds we left with nothing and started everything from zero, we couldn't even go to honeymoon that year. So beware. Another story I read in Giornale di Brescia newspaper. In the same city I used to live in , burglars put owners little chihuahua inside the owen and turned it on:(( Omg, It still makes me cry. I can not imagine finding my dog that way. So after that, I worked very hard to make my yorkie friendly to everybody who comes home. I tried to socialize him more. But it still haunts me this day. So I just wanted to warn some dog owners about this sick possibility.
You shouldn’t have had such a fancy big wedding.
That why you don't invite random people to your wedding and do it cheap at your own place
The strike plate. Several years ago I got a buddy of mine to install a double keyed deadbolt because my front door had small plates of glass near the handle/knob. As an added visible deterrent I installed a brass plate on the deadbolt. making B&Es all the more difficult. I drilled metal strips onto the inside door jam behind the trim, making a thief think twice while struggling to kick in the front door. To make it even more difficult the stoop is elevated from street level, so a running kick is more difficult to execute. 3M makes a "Safety & Security Window Film", worth the investment.
In addition to the strike plate I’ve got 1/8” hardened steel surround on the three hinges that, according to the security contractor, “can’t even be breeched with a shotgun”. I have no way of testing that out without catching charges for using a firearm in town I do know the whole door and frame weigh about 800lbs and the wall had to be reinforced with 4x4 lumber. So I’m going to take him at his word
Could have replaced the front door. No more window
@@a.sullivan8369 I thought of that. But that would look ghetto. I also thought of installing a heavy steal screen door. Also ghetto. So far, after 35 years, not a single break-in.
Get a sign that says “lubed and ready, enter at own risk”, doesn’t cause firearms targeting and still generates fear in most people. Helps if you play goodbye horses on loop too while you’re gone
I killed the 69 likes
Its 71
Combining "lubed and ready..." with a rainbow flag, you'll be pretty safe😁
Hahaha have some moths flying around and a dancing silhouette in the window :)
@@burgerbirger2221 lol, thats what i thought also.
Only usable piece of advice from this video: Landmine rhoomba,
Yeah, how do you prevent racoons?
I usually just use the gun camera like they have on tardarus
The landmine rhoomba is a really good way to prevent being robbed, but more because you wouldn't have a house left to rob after mor than a few minutes of setting it up
Where can I buy one though-😂
@@danthehermit4748 use a very strong laser pointer at eye level, a burglar cant steal what they cant see!
1. bulletproof roller shutters on all windows and exterior doors 2. outer walls surrounded by thorny rose bushes 3. windowsills filled with potted plants 4. gravel stone paths
Thorny rose bushes are the best!
When it comes to doors, in addition to the strike plate you should replace the screws used to secure the strike plate and hinges with at least 4" screws. These hold the door much more securely and make it impossible to breach a door quickly, if at all.
Those screws already come with the strike plate.
There are *very* few home doors that will withstand a solid kick. You basically need a steel door set in a steel frame to stop that. Basically, screws aren't stopping most burglars.
@@LastBastian absolute crap. Long screws and a security strike plate is hard as shit to break. Nobody wants to kick a door 100 times to get in.
@@halodave agreed. I was told by a locksmith that even though I have a steel door I need to add steel plates to my frame since it’s not a steel frame. The gentleman told me what I needed to add including the 4 inch screws and the steel plates should be at least 18 to 24 inches long. He came from the Middle East and shared with me the things that he learned about how people break in to homes. My weak is points are windows but my home is in clear sight of the neighborhood. I’m hoping to find a better security system that will work in all areas of my home. Any advice would be appreciated.
@@halodave I've litteraly kicked in hundreds of doors, but you keep telling yourself that if it makes you sleep better at night. Some people are just too stubborn, and insist on learning the hard way I guess.
Ok, I love the glued fake key thing. Trolling a burglar is great, whether it's effective security or not! I randomly had an idea for a security system based off that. Probably far-fetched and too sci-fi, but anyway.... Hide a fake key under a welcome mat or some other cliche spot. Don't glue it, you want the burglar to easily use it. Have the key cut so it fits into the keyhole but can't unlock the door. Inside the fake key is a RFID chip. Inside the door lock is a corresponding one wired to the house's power if needed. Upon the fake key being inserted into the lock and completing the circuit, 3 things occur in simultaneously: 1) The local police department is alerted that a break in attempt has occurred at your address (obviously you'd still want cameras paired w/ this set up) 2) A hidden/obscured device sprays the burglar with the "dye pack" stuff used to foil bank robbers that's tough to wash out, so he's easily marked for police pick up later. 3) My voice declares over a speaker system, "gotch 'yo ass, mother****er!" and then the audible alarm begins playing. The alarm being "Bad Boys" from Cops.
Should factor the use of an airbag into the response also.
You just Mark Rober'ed that guy into oblivion.
Best 1 yet!😂
"Have the key cut so it fits into the keyhole but can't unlock the door." You mean like the ones you buy at Home Depot?
My Grandma planted Spanish Daggers (a bush with VERY sharp sword like leaves) under all her widows. From Wikipedia: “Yucca gloriosa has been known to cause skin irritation and even allergic reactions upon contact. The leaf points are even sharp enough to break the skin.” She also kept a cleaned and loaded shotgun under her bed. 😉
Aw, granny always knew what was best!
Imagine trying to break into a grannys house to get cut and get an allergic reaction over a bush and getting shot by a shotgun Ouch
As a person with an auntie has spanish daggers, getting cut by one is not it🤣🤣
Bougainvillea Pyracantha Blackberry Roses Barberry Yucca Grapefruit All are "defensive" plants without looking like burglar bars. All are thorny and make for a great barrier in front of windows. Even some government buildings use grapefruit.
@@yoinkysploink4801 Like something out of Home Alone 😆
There are a couple more things to consider. Have you ever locked yourself out of your home? Do you have a spare key under the mat? Burglars will find it in jig time. Instead, do you have a neighbor you trust, a couple-three houses away? Exchange keys with her. She hides your key on her property - - and you hide her key on yours. Burglars won’t be able to use the key they find on your property. Yet if you lock yourself out, you will know where to go to get that spare key. Funerals. Yes this is grotesque. Some smart burglars will read the Obituaries about those who recently passed away. Specifically, they look for when the entire family will be gone from the house to attend the funeral. That means it is empty and easy to ransack. Three choices for safety: Request the newspaper to withhold the date & time of the funeral. Or ask another neighbor to house-sit. [Assuming she wasn’t planning on attending the funeral.] Also call the police ahead of time, and alert them when your family will be gone.
@@peaceandlove1113 I also have something similar to ADT. Trouble is, it is meant as a burglar alarm. If you lock yourself out of your house, ADT will not help. You can't get in, unless you force a door or window. Only then will ADT will summon the police. Imagine the scenario: "Yes officer, this really IS my house. I broke into my own house, because I was stupid, and forgot the key." Officer: "Prove who you are; and that you really live here." There is also the dreaded 'I mistyped my security code', funny, that code works on my mobile phone. Oh wait, that has four digits, not six - - what were the last two? Or was it entirely different? Backwards, maybe? [Hearing sirens in the background.] Well, I guess the police will believe me - - I'm in my pajamas.
I hide an unmarked spare key under a rock, a few streets down. It doesn't take long to get to it, but if someone finds it they'll have to try it on dozens of houses before they might get to mine.
For security reasons I had a locksmith re-key my lock. I keep his phone number in my phone. I live alone and have no family. If I lock myself out I can call him and he knows what he keyed my door to and can make duplicate and open my door.
@@sminthian Unless neighbors see you getting the key, and know who you are, where you live, etc.
I have a bright across the street that calls me if a strange mushroom grows in my yard. I love that lady. She stays on the ball.
My aunt always said the "friends" you invite into your home are the ones taking things out as well especially if you have a party and uninvited people come along with folks you know they could take things.
Sad but so very true.
Smart aunt I was taught the same..it’s usually the ppl who’ve been there b4, seen what you have, know about you or tht 1 time out of the rest sum stranger just watched you bring things in your home... I wait til dark and cover things b4 bringing them in! And never have ppl running in and out my house so if it happens I can most likely pen point the culprit(s).
Welp my friends cant go to my place there a *LOT* of dogs here. Besides i trust them enough so there a *low* chance they will steal from me.

tips against burglars: if you have windows that can be pried open from the outside, change it. my parents locked all of us out on accident once, and I broke through my window without shattering a shard or damaging anything within 1 minute. If I could do it within 1 minute, so can a professional robber
Problem with laminated glass, fire safety issue. If a fire starts in home and you need to break a window to get out or the fire department needs to break a window to rescue you, it will not break and you remain trapped.
Just open your window?
Michel Cardenas Jara, if you are trapped and can't get to window yourself and fire dept shows up, they may need to break window to save you. Can't with this class. And have windows painted once or twice and many people can't open their windows anymore cause they are painted shut
@@IDontKnow-mf5wi Most people don't paint their windows shut anymore since they are aluminum frames. The older houses with wooden windows may still have an issue. But like someone posted earlier...most people are morons, so they may have painted their aluminum windows shut.
@@IDontKnow-mf5wi To be fair firefighters would be able to get through it as they also carry fire axes which can be used to cut through the laminate layer after shattering the glass. That said it is still useful at slowing most burglars as they don't tend to show up in fire engines loaded with all the equipment needed.
@@sirfishslayer5100 People do this to apartments between renters. Had such a hard time opening cabinets, doors, windows, and could not use the radiator....
All the burglars watching this be like: Mhm, mhm, tell me more.
Good burglars will know anyone doing these things aren't worth dealing with. Same reason you park next to an easier to steal car in the parking lot. Theft is a crime of opportunity and a thief wants to spend as little time as possible.
I live in a small 55 and older community. Only my most trusted neighbors, 2 that have earned my trust, ever know when I'm not going to be home. Random neighbors that I don't know or appear to have been probing, will never know when I'm going to be gone. They will also never be able to count on my routine. I mix it up regularly. If a sketchy neighbor sees me leaving and enquires to where I'm heading, I'll lie like a dog and tell them, just running to ________, real quick. You may think that a 55 and older community should be safe and for the most part it is. But just because someone has gotten older, doesn't make them less of a career criminal. There is no accounting for taste when it comes to the kind of people they invite around as well. In addition, knowing it's an older community has on a few occasions attracted unsavory types around who were obviously casing the neighborhood. It didn't go too well for them because as mentioned, older doesn't change and safety minded people with experience are not the people you want to mess with.
In my previous home, I had basement windows that were larger than usual at the back of my house. I planted a garden of extra thorny rose bushes along this back wall. It looked lovely from the inside views, and outside. It was a great deterrent.

@Marcus Senter okay man, you're taking into account that I even know who you are, which I don't. I don't know your friend, tell them I said I'm sorry for their loss. You have no right to say "I guess he doesn't exist to you" because, up until his point, I didn't even know you or your friend existed. I know people that shoot dogs while robbing a place exist but it isn't common because it just draws attention them and what they're doing. The person your friend's dog died to was probably a murderer trying to find their next victim, so don't say "I guess he doesn't exist to you".
I remember seeing a video of a couple who was having issues with burglars so they set up a high-pressure sprinkler on the back of their van, near the entrance, that would trigger whenever something (or someone) approached. One would-be burglar got a nice jet to the face and they immediately high-tailed out of there. Personally, I would have added concentrated skunk "juice" or something that will stick to you for days, even with repeated showers. That way, if its one of their neighbors, the smell will give them away.
I saw that on a video yesterday.
Im not a retired burglar but I have a few sure fire ways to deter burglars from hitting my 1954 , not much updated ranch home in metro Detroit. 1) Im one of a few residents in my sub that still has a dirt horse shoe driveway. Gives it that poor look. 2) I have a 1996 Chevy truck parked out in the drive. 3) I still have the original 1954 , semi rusty chain link fence going around the backyard. If I were a burglar, I'd take one look at this place as think "forget this house, this guy is broke and has nothin worth stealing. Oh, and 4), a 12 gauge shot gun sitting by my night stand. I'm on a corner lot and all my neighbors are retired and the Army guy behind me likes to always be on the look out, like he's waiting for someone to try something.

true. there are more people staying at home than ever before.
The easiest way to deter a burglar in Europe: go on a shooting range, ask for bullet casisngs as a souvenir, then get a sign "I don't dial 112" and glue these bullet casings somewhere visible.
By far the best srategy
Are you sure you're not american? Cause that sounds like something an american would defo do.
@@ambersugarsimp3890 Actually, in America, we do it a little different. In the USA, it's best to have someone home most of the time and to have lots and lots of firearms, loaded and hidden throughout the house. My parents have a gun in every room, ready to go.

Additionally, a lot of states have stiffer penalties for breaking in at night because it is seen as a home invasion where the person had good reason to believe the home owner would be home.
I didn’t know that! Thank you! Now I’m glad I sleep with my “little friend” by me at all times. Plus two very loud and territorial dogs that stay inside. Although I’m home 99% of the time being disabled. I have an attempted home invasion and that made me get personal protection. Since my father was a former military man he trained me for about anything. Sadly I had to use those skills when I was getting a quote for some home repair work. The police officer said “the best thing you did was fight back”. He said that several times while the police were here. It’s an evil world…
@@susana5052 Yes, never acquiesce.
@@susana5052the "little friend" is the great equalizer. I wish more folks would arm themselves like you. The best thing anyone can do for their own personal protection, is to purchase a reliable handgun, and train with it regularly. You are your own first responder! God Bless you!
My back door not only has a deadbolt.. it's got two manual huge bolts.. just in case someone tries to pick the lock on the deadbolt... I've got a vibration alarm that will go off on all the windows including the basement windows.... Glass break vibration alarms are fantastic and inexpensive as an addition to the regular home security system that I have... I have removed the rope handles on the garage door release mechanisms.. and installed a push button deadbolt on the door that goes from the garage into the house.. I have installed some inexpensive mesh fencing which would slow down.. keep a intruder from wandering into the backyard... I have a locked gate on the side of the house and a motion detector alarm that chimes if someone is on the side of the house.... I also have security cameras all around my house.. separate from my security alarm system.... On the tree next to the road I have a Hunter's game camera... Which will snap photos of license plates passing by my street...
Something tells me that if I tried leaving Home Alone-style traps, that I would end up in more trouble than a robber would.
yes, happens all the time. just because you have the right to protect yourself, 1) if they aren't going to hurt you, you don't have the right to shoot them. 2) even if you do legally, their family will sue you in a civil suit, and yes, you killed him. If you set a trap, you did it intentionally, per-meditated. People can trespass legally even if posted if they don't do anything wrong.
Most effective traps id guess would be trap doors. Like that psycho hotel owner that did this and killed hundreds of people.
@Biggus Dickus Yes. I agree. I am in a terribly democratic state. We need to show a force against these people and try to get the vote back. But for me, I spend mostmy time in the Philippines and summers back here (Oregon). I have rentals to take care of or I would not be in Oregon.

Best tip I have ever heard of is to hang your door upside down -- That way it opens outward. Its damn near impossible to kick or use one of those swinging weights the Swat team uses to Breach your door. The jamb is 3 times thicker that way and as long as the hinges are tucked in nice and tight - no problem . Doors are made to be Easily Kicked in otherwise -- So Be safe!
Wait, WOW
u r smarter than me
upside down door lmfao best idea genius idea big brain idea love it
Not really upside down, it's called reverse swing when it swings outward but you have to have hinges made for it or the pins could be easily removed and the door will be easy to open.
It may also be against code. Usually doors open in so that even if something is blocking it, like fallen debris, you can still escape the house if needed in cases like fires.
They forgot to mention how important it is to keep a firearm, (or two), loaded and ready. It's good to train on different scenarios in your home. Have a plan to be ready to protect yourselves and your loved ones in a moments notice! You, and your family, need to train with your firearms regularly! Teach your children the importance of gun safety, and if they are old enough, teach them to be proficient with a firearm. Too many have a fear of a gun being in their home. But most of us grew up with firearms all around us. If you are the former, work on getting over that fear, by going to the range and renting one, and getting yourselves use to it. Maybe you know a friend that has firearms that will help you to get more comfortable handling and using a gun. Like the saying goes..."you are your own first responder"!!! And the other saying..."when seconds matter, the police are minutes away". God Bless!
Yup, you are very much correct.

On the strike plate issue. I came home one day to find boot prints on the front door. When I opened it, it nearly fell off its hinges. The attempt at kicking it didn't damage the frame or strike plate. It did however pull the screws for the hinges through the wood. I replaced the screws with three inch long deck screws, that go all the way into the 2x4 stud. This is something I'd recommend to do in addition to installing a strike plate.
A line from Drew Hayes's "Split the Party" comes to mind - "It's like filling your house with silver, so that while the thief is busy plundering that, he won't look for the gold hidden under the floorboards." Meaning is - use a less valuable object to act as a decoy in order to cover for the real treasure, and to act as a sacrifice in order to protect the actual stuff.
While living in NYC and living in an apartment, I placed a small TV by the front door hooked up to a timer so that the TV went on and off automatically giving the impression someone was watching. My lamps were also on timers. I also installed a so-called "burglar-proof lock (my friend's husband learned how to open locks and bought the one he couldn't open. My cat, well, too loving by far.
One thing I learned about garage doors from commercial loading docks as a security guard is that by cutting out an incision in one side of the rail that the garage door wheels slide up and down you can manually lock a garage door with a bar and padlock attached to the wall beside the garage door

A burglar came to my house and left a note with 20$ in it with a text "Buy something worth of stealing" LOL
The weirdest thing I ever heard in my life. You sure glad you had such a "genius" burglar LOL.
in the mid-90s a somewhat similar thing happened to me. I owned an old Lada Niva, and somebody had broken into it, the door was open when I got up to leave for work. And that whoever had left a coin - and not the smallest in use then, about mid-value - on top of the radio/cassette player which kind of protruded a bit out of the slot where it was supposed to go into. I presume because the wannabe thief had a sense of humor. The car was cheap, that radio was totally worthless (the radio worked, the cassette player tended to eat tapes instead of playing them) and yes, there definitely was nothing anybody would have wanted for free inside the car. I was a bit puzzled why anybody had even bothered to get inside, you should have guessed there'd be nothing valuable just looking at it, but who knows, maybe it was just somebody who wanted to practice breaking into cars and ended up feeling a bit sorry for the obviously poor owner... Or, as said, he had a sense of humor.

That's something my relatives have learned regarding dogs: My aunt's family lives on a smallholding in the most sparsely populated province of South Africa and she has had multiple dogs of hers poisoned or shot dead by burglars, because the dogs were outside rather than being smaller dogs inside. IMO it's much more helpful to have the early warning provided by an attentive house dog than a guard dog outside.
Having both inside and outside dogs works well especially a pit bull and a few German Sheoherds also a chiwaw wa

same applies to deadbolts if locked for night . Double glazing hard to break anyway , need pressure point in corner . So opening security lock windows the best .

My brother watches your videos every single day and sometimes I get tired of it but your videos are great
At my old house by the front door there used to be a sticker that read “if I don’t call the police my neighbours will”
"This house is protected by Smith and Wesson". Another good sign. "This house protected by Colt, the original point and click interface".
I have big red biohazard poster on all my doors. It has the biohazard symbol and a skull and crossbones along with the words: "WARNING! OCUPANT HAS TESTED POSATIVE FOR COVID 19! HAZMAT SUIT REQUIRED FOR ENTRY!" Not too many burglars carry hazmat suit with them in their burglar tool kit.

@@YoursUntruly Funny line! But not really effective. When I bought a house in a poor area of Memphis, I didn't realize that I was the only one in the neighborhood actually working for a living, and that I was moving into a neighborhood loaded with druggies and welfare bums, all who saw anyone with a job as an easy target because I actually earned money and made purchases and I had to leave my house every day to do work. I was poor, but the druggies and welfare bums and their broods are perfectly willing to steal from the poor. One 9 year old criminal scumbag brood of a professional bum stole a salt shaker and coupon book, along with a handful of other items with little value. The criminal's scumbag mother later bragged about moving across the state line to get a nice apartment with carpet and a porch with a grill after the other state cut her off because she refused a job. The thief's 15 year old brother stole car batteries for a living. His 19 year old sister openly stated that she worked at a local movies theater for a couple of weeks but didn't like working so she quit.
@@YoursUntruly hell yeah. Me too. This is one of the better comments, for sure.
4-5 years ago a game camera (SE Sweden, about 5 km from my home in a forested area) for hunting wild pigs was stolen on a tiny road deep into the forest. The local newspaper wrote: "A game camera has been stolen on the X road (a small road indirectly leading to the tinier road). The value of the camera is estimated to about 2 000 SEK (about 200 USD)". The real story was more interesting - the owner, AA, is related to close friends of mine and I met him where he developed the context: The camera had automatically sent good facial photos of the thieves and of their car (including the registration number) to AA:s mobile phone. AA brought these photos to the Police and they said that he couldn't use these photos as evidence of the theft because there was no sign in the forest telling that the area was camera surveyed. The Police even knew who these individuals were (clearly illegal immigrants living in another forest near a smaller town 20 km further away). You may think that the Police should use all evidence to arrest the thieves (the Police even saw their car a few days later) but the legal system seems to be from another planet.

Also, with doors: don't use the strike plate screws, which are typically 1" in length, that come with door latches as they're quite ineffective. Go with something beefy like wood screws with long shafts. The burglar(s) could kick like Pele, but they're not going to get anywhere fast. It would take the force of a SWAT team battering ram to break down the door. There's also what's called a "burglar's step" in staircases in houses that didn't use exact measurements on staircases. A resident could easily tell if one step is slightly higher or lower than the rest, but a burglar wouldn't have time and it would trip them up (literally) trying not to make A LOT of noise. All I can say is "have a nice trip, see you next fall!"
🤣👍
Honestly, no matter how many years I lived in that house I would trip on the stairs
Good tip, I used deck screws on my strike plates, too! Years of wood shop in school and working in construction and remodeling paid off, LOL
Local building codes might trip you up with the inconsistent height of the burglar's step. Just don't invite any buiding inspectors over after you put one in... .
Dont forget to replace at least one screw on each of the door hinges, on both the door side and frame side, with a longer screw that extends to the studs.
My neighbors are all ways home and always calls you if they see a car near by your home
Even though my neighborhood hasn’t seen any crime for almost two decades (very small rural neighborhood in case you were wondering. Not near any suburbs) one thing we always do when out of the house is leave two or three lights on. Especially when we go on vacation. If we are just going out for a few hours and know that we will be back after dark I always try to leave the porch light on and the lamp beside the front window. Sometimes we also leave the kitchen light on. But that’s about the only measures we take. We don’t even lock the door during the day (because there’s almost ALWAY someone home I suppose) but we always lock it at night. The one burglary that happened years and years ago was at night. A bunch of car windows got smashed in with anything like laptops and cameras in the car stolen. The perpetrator was the brother of the at the time next door neighbor who was caught the next day with everyone’s items stolen. I don’t believe anyone pressed charges because it was going to cost more in lawyer fees than to just replace the windows.
I hope some neighborly justice was instilled.

Now that he is getting older he has access to drugs and alcohol and I question if that is good if he is bipolar. I spoke to his grandmother that lives out of town but visits daily. She said if it ever happens again not to hesitate to call the police because being arrested is the only way he is going to learn.

@@MrSteelermania Yes, this is probably best advice because deep down I feel this way!
1 of the best forms of security are to have an alarm and have window, door, and motion sensors that trip it when activated. Make sure the alarm is always active as well. Nowadays they are much more difficult to bypass and many alarms have a cellular backup like RING. So even if you think cutting the power to the house disables it, it automatically switches to cellular backup and all sensors will still trip it. Also like with the dog signs dont advertise your alarm. It makes your house vulnerable to thieves thinking you have valuables worth protecting with an alarm and depending on the alarm thieves may know how to circumvent the alarm if you advertise which company you're with. So if you must advertise your house has an alarm get a sign for another high end company just so they cannot be prepared to defeat it. And as available with the RING alarm purchase the additional alarm siren and mount it outside near your front door so should someone come in through the front door your entire neighborhood will be alerted to the problem thus scaring aware the thief.
Yes and that's all you need but any internet system is crap because someone can hack it and or bypass it so a normal system like a new HKC system they all have battery backups nowadays that will text you if something happens

Burglars usually try to avoid homes with occupants in them. The reason for this is two-fold. It could be risky, many people will react badly to a home invasion and even if they don't have firearms, they're likely to grab any object they can to defend themselves. The second one is the charges placed on them. If they break into a home with no one home, and get caught. Its a very light sentence. Something like 6 months in jail or even simply 2 years probation. However if someone is home, some states call that first degree burglary and charge up to a 20-life sentence in some cases. So if they can't figure out whether you're home or not, they're very likely to leave it be. On that note, you can tell when these people are casing your neighborhood. Usually weird cars driving slow, stopping for a few seconds at a time. Sometimes its benign, but not always. And like said in the video, usually during the day. Night time burglaries usually only happen if they think you're not there like on a trip or something.
If there's any movement in my front or backyard my CCTV cameras both ring an alarm that can be heard from a bloody mile away! 🤗 In the passed year it's gone off two times because of cats walking around, my god the alarms are seriously deafening, I'd share the Amazon link but it's not on Amazon anymore but I do recommend buying a camera system that has an alarm built in! 👍🏼
