Why Not Just Upgrade the Locks?

If you already have a security door installed and its been quite several years now, we suggest you to get your locks upgraded. There is no harm in rethinking about your home security, in fact it is always suggested. After so many years being passed since the last time you got your security door installed, can you still give guarantee and be sure that it can withstand being drilled through? Withstand external force and not break? If only by reading this, it makes you second guess your current security locks installed, it means you never really gave it much of a thought, so get it upgraded.

Focus on hinges:

Try to think like a thief who is trying to enter into a home, if you are unable to make your way in through unlocking or breaking the locks, the next thing you would probably do is exert pressure on the door to break it. So where exactly to put this pressure? On the door hinges. When the hinges become weak, it can easily be dislodged and that is exactly how an intruder enters. It is always recommended to get a 3 inch screws and security studs installed.
