Wow, I am a professional handyman and found this one very interesting. Will start suggesting some of these to my customers. Thanks!
I’m glad I could be of help Dennis! Let’s all continue to spread the word and spread awareness! 👍🏽😊🙏🏽
Hey Dennis, look up crime prevention through environmental design (CPTED)and hardening the target. There’s a ton of solid info out there and a lot of it has worked. There will always be the exception to most rules but criminals are lazy or thry wouldn’t be criminals. A little deterrance goes a long way.
@@bbrown5887 lol thats so true! Society's best! 😂
@@FixThisHouse you’re the best son a mother could ask for. I loved all of these tips. Blessings🙏☺️
@@bbrown5887 that was insightful- that criminals are lazy or they wouldn’t be criminals.
They’re also often sociopaths. I used to try to help poor people out by giving them odd jobs. But after the second one called me up asking for more money for doing nothing and I said no, and took joy in telling me what he had stolen from me, or physically attacked me - now I rather see them starve to death than be additional carbon footprints on our planet. The government needs to cut it out with welfare and paying welfare moms more money they more babies they pop out.
These sliding door companies need to upgrade the security features! Thanks for the great tips!
My sliding glass door that I bought from Champion has 3 latch points for the lock and a deadbolt style knob instead of a lever for the latch. Even if someone lifted the door they wouldn't be able to tilt it to move it out of the way.
Sliding doors have always been a an easy access. You want to make it as difficult as possible, but a motivated criminal will just break the glass if they need to, unless you have an alarm.
They make better sliding doors, but the builders don’t want to spent the money.
You can get the upgrades just gotta pay for them.
🤣
Blinds are another method of protection. Don't let them see into your home and look for things to take. Lots of people advertise their expensive belongings for the world to see.
Thank you for bringing this into light! My wife loves windows, we just invested on some great roll ups
Blinds 🙏🏽😊
Put a metal safety door outside. Lock it up in the night / when going out. + a camera . That's all that's needed
True. We have wooden blinds. During the day I have it slanted at a 45 degree downwards towards the outside. This allows me to get light in, see anyone walking in the garden, without them being able to see in easily
Same goes with expensive item boxes left on the curb for garbage pickup, it’s an advertisement for “” LQQk what we have””.
@@akbychoice how do you get around that tho? You have to throw out the boxes…
Thank you for this. As far as preventing the door from being lifted out of the track, I measured the gap at the top edge of the door (~.5") and bought a wooden dowel of that diameter at the hardware store for $2.50 for 4'. Slide the dowel into the gap between the top of the door and the track. Of course I also have a dowel in the bottom track. The reason I mention the dowel, which does the same as the screw solution you mention, is that some people may not have the tools to do the screw method, or maybe don't want to put a hole in the track.
Thank you. I wondered if something like that would work.
This is great! Thanks for showing me how to break in to my house when my wife locks me out! Now I can sleep on the couch instead of the patio furniture. Cheers!
😂
Where's your spare key outside?😂
Exactly, and crooks can also see this 😂😂
I hope to God you're joking! 😅 Right? 😮
@@user-yj4pv6nx3sthat part!😮 Scarry! 😢
Your demo about home security has shown me how ignorant I have been for the last 89 years, one of my rental units has one of those doors, I thought that I have it secured very good, only to find out from you how to secure the door. We do not take you for granted, we appresiate you very much. Thanks my friend
God bless you, protect6 you and prosper you and your family.
though in los angeles, some just kick the door in or break the window... I agree, making it more difficult stops most. And in cities like los angeles, having pictures of the criminals doesn't do much to return your stolen items. I know people who have been burglarized several times. Each time they "up" the security.
I lived in an apartment with a sliding glass door for several years and looking back, I'm surprised no one broke through it to break in. Back then, we used to have a wooden stick in the gap to keep the door from being slid. Still, from what I have seen in footage, burglars usually just break the glass.
True, but it would be harder to prove it was a burglary incident if one of these other methods are used. I think it is better to make it as difficult as possible, and if they do break the glass then you at least have some form of evidence something occurred.
@@Thesakuraharonalmfao
Break glass - run in, grab shit, leave
They aint finding you…..
This video is stupid
Exactly. The whole video is nonsense. Especially if you leave for an extended period. Plus, most doors and locks in the US are flimsy. And if somebody breaks in when you are inside - you need a gun.
You have to make difficult to get in I just got broke in all they did was lift the sliding door off track then they took a hammer and screwdriver I had on my kitchen table and busted thru my locked bedroom door then they mutilated the door on my lockup cabinet to steal a bunch of pennies and silver rings but left 3 rolls of quarters and 1 rolled dimes and 800$ in a brown bag and numerous valuable coins in boxes I feel very lucky time to beef up security and install a camera system
@@ronaldkuhn952 Why would you get online, describe the crime in full identifying detail, and announce that the thieves missed the best stuff? How sure are you that they were strangers?
If your door has wheels on the top then you can simply tighten the wheel adjustment bolt (located in that hole at each end of the door) to raise the wheels until they touch the top of the door frame. That eliminates the gap without having to put all those wood screws into your door frame.
Thanks!
You can also screw a spacer above the door track to eliminate the gap between the sliding door and the top track so the intruder cannot lift the door off the lower track.
My thoughts exactly!!!
@@faltio69 I thought the same. I think it would be a cleaner look as well.
They also are at the bottom. You can see one at 4:27 and should always adjust them to prevent the door from being lifted out of the frame.
I wish the Idaho 4 had watched this video. Seriously, we have to save ourselves.
When seconds count, help is minutes away.
Thank you for helping us stay safe.
I'm a retired senior security officer and these videos are always interesting to me. Thank you.
Lots of great tips! Just a note on the one way film, at night the view is the other way around from outside to inside but not inside to out. Also install a video cam with lights and siren outside and use a solar panel to keep the batteries charged if it's possible in that location. I have these and once they start filming the recording is stored on the internet so even if the cam is destroyed the images are safe.
Wow. Thanks.
I was wondering about that one way film. Thanks for answering my question before I even had to ask.
It is surprising the number of people that do not realise that is turns around at night ie it is always visibility from the darker side to the lighter side. People just check it in the daylight and never realise at night people have a clear view in.
@@peetabrown5813 It shouldn't matter really though. Don't most people close their curtains or blinds after dark?
@@CLord-gs7nj not if they think the film means no one can see in, they think they don’t need to shut them
One of the easiest and most effective is a dowel/pin through the frame of the sliding and into the fixed door. Do it at the top (where there's no glass) in the middle of the opening where the two doors overlap. I made nice ones for my mom with an aluminum rod from Home Depot and a nice wooden door pull (also from HD). Drill a hole all through the inside door and the inside side of the outside door (NOT ALL THE WAY TO THE OUTSIDE). Put the pin through and there's no way to slide the door or pick it up with a crowbar or suction pads because now the two doors are locked together. Don't do the screws in the top frame as you'll pierce the water barrier and possibly allow water in around the door. Don't do that.
perfect. thank you.
I remember that doors used to come this way in the "olden days".
When we lived in a house with a sliding glass door, we just put a sturdy, square stick to jam the door shut. It always worked great...and always had a dog. If anyone was able to get past all that, they would have to face my husband and 2 sons with the 'great equalizer.'
Thank you so much. I live alone and it can be scary. My slider is really heavy. I put a 1x2 inch board in the track. I feel much safer.
I’m glad I could be of help! If you can just put 1-2 screws on the upper track just for good measure. Stay safe and take care Barbara! 🙏🏽😊
Great video. Bandits are lazy so doing anything to make it harder for them usually helps. Yes they can just smash the glass but that makes a lot of noise risking detection so it’s not preferred. A Live monitored security camera that lets them know they’ve been detected is another excellent tool. Having just a video camera usually just records the crime showing you what you already know. Balance deterrance with evidence gatheing for best success.
My second house was on the edge of a rough neighborhood. Property prices were low because of this. Spent a fair amount of money to do some upgrades. One of these was on the patio doors, we installed a Hurricane shutter that could be closed at night or if we were out at work. The windows when shut had metal swing clips that locked the window down.
A person can easily break window glass to get in, even with locks.
Metal lock down shutters, bars, or something like that are much better.
If you think just locking a glass window keeps you safe, then you don't know very much.
@@janicem9225 Depends on where you are, but I agree.
@@janicem9225 , Agree, In New Mexico at Elephant Butte lake marina the human smugglers were breaking the houseboats pilot house windows, stealing them & bringing dozens of illegals up lake to Albuquerque. Then returning the boats for the next run. After 2 break INS we replaced the glass wt lexan plastic sheets. Lexan is bulletproof. Absorbs impacts & throws the bullets back at the shooter. The coyote smuggler got mad when the hammer didn't break it & slammed it really hard w both hands. We found him dead on the deck w the hammers claw stuck into his forehead from the bounce back. That houseboat was never stolen again.
@@tristantimothy1004 love reading a good story of poetic justice.
@@rokko_hates_japan , No telling how many illegals that scumbag killed by abandoning them in the desert to die if they couldn't keep up. Once the coyotes are paid they don't give a rats fart if their " clients" make it or not. Finding dead illegals killed by the desert heat wasn't that uncommon. Not to mention the child sex slaves they were bringing into a life of torture & abuse. Man may fool man but NOBODY fools God & when he wrote " What a man sows he reaps." He ment it. " What goes around, comes around." Was invented by God & eventually everyone's evil catches up.
Number one stopper! Benelli M4 NEVER FAILS!
I like the way you think! 🤣
Well you need to be awake or at home for that to be effective
So I'm supposed to sit there day after day and night after night with a gun? That makes no sense at all. Also killing someone is not moral, or didn't you know that? Some kid decides to steal something because he's a kid and makes bad decisions, like most of us did at a young age, and you suggest we kill him? I see.
The downside of the 1 way window film is that at night when it’s dark sand your lights are on inside anyone outside can see in and you can’t see out.
That is true! Thank you for mentioning that.
That's with ANY uncovered window.
Nothing beats a dog or two for security. My fav!! I used to lift our slider as a kid to sneak out, if only my parents knew.
A good substitute for a stick is the white PVC pipe used for sprinklers. Cheap and easy to cut. If they are cut slightly long, they can be wedged in to make the locking stronger. Like the screws over the top keeping the door from lifting.
5:48 also leave enough for expansion and contraction of the materials (roof, doors, windows etc) and your house in general. Having those screws too close can cause the sliding door frame to put pressure on the door when it gets full sun and heats up. Potentially binding the door or at worse put strain to the glass... maybe add a rubber grommet to the head of the screw or something like RV weather stripping so it's not metal on metal contact.
They broke my glass so none of your ideas works 😂😂😂
These days the thieves just steal a Honda or a Kia and use it as a battering ram.
absolutely they are not going to waste time to do that.
Get better glass?
you need safety glass. with that anti break layer.
Goto CVS drugs and buy glass alarms @ 15 dollors each suckin cups It glass get hit by things It SCREAMS 90 DECIBELS MAY CHANGE THEIR LITTLE MINDS
Thank you for basic, common sense repairs & getting to the point without unnecesary chatter.
The vibration alarm is very interesting. I’m considering installing one in my garage window. Thanks!
@4:57 the proper way to eliminate the sliding door gap is to actually adjust the roller. There's an adjustment screw that controls how far the roller comes out from the frame, and there's a screw like that on both top and bottom of most sliding doors! The idea is to adjust the rollers in such a way that the door moves smoothly, but snugly, and doesn't have enough play to be forced outside of the track without getting to the adjustment screw on the side of the door frame.
Great tips otherwise, thanks for producing this!
One place I lived in, in Sydney Australia, people broke into my ground floor apartment by just lifting the sliding glass door out of its rails 0 even with a drop-bolt! Luckily, I had only started dead-bolting the front door for the past two weeks & they had to work to get past the inner screen door (behind the sliding door). It totally freaked me out & I couldn't get home fast enough for 6+ months each day... My solution was to put a small metal tab at the top of the sliding door, to limit how high the door could be raised out of the sliding door track. It seemed to work... 👍
In 1994, my apartment in Vista, California was broken into. I was on the ground floor & they used a piece off the barque to break the sliding glass right near the lock. That motion detector would have helped. Thank you for tips.
Because I'm getting older, I am soon moving into a first floor apartment with a sliding glass patio door. After living for decades on the 2nd floor, where I felt quite safe, this aspect of my new life frightens me somewhat. The neighborhood is quiet and safe, but I know nothing is 100%. So thank you for these tips, I will speak with my complex management about adding these items to my patio door.
I had a kind neighbor help me 8 years ago when I downsized and moved
Some modern sliding doors come with "deadbolt" mechanisms on the door. Two bolts extend out of the door into the frame from both the top and bottom of the door. This prevents the "lifting" break in technique. While an extra security measure or two is wise, it's also important to remember that it is just a glass door. If someone is hellbent on getting in, they will just break the glass...
Thank you! Many tips I hadn't heard of before. Your mother is lucky to have you. 👍
Loved filling the gap with the use of screws! The screaming alarm I had that same sound and used it for my Sleepwalker at night. If the door opened, I had time to catch him before he left the house. (ya, it's scary, but even scarier to have a kid leave at night while he's asleep)
Great video! Sadly, of the burglaries that happened to people I am close to, none of perps even bothered messing with the doors or windows, they just smash the glass with a rock.
I've installed windows sliding doors and glass over 45yrs.
If your door is adjusted properly. (Raise the bottom rollers) you won't have this issue.
No home is secure when it has windows.. glass..
Very very well done. Thank you. We recently had our slider replace by Anderson. The space on top is less than ¼". I think a strip of wood with double sided tape would be more effective than screws and doesn't mar the frame. This door has the security latch built in.
Thank you.... love that idea.
That's an excellent idea. You don't need screws to hold the shim in place. But, the screws might be easier to remove if you have a need to remove the door for your own reasons.
Thank you. Great tips. I’ll be putting the screws in the upper track of my sliding glass doors. I also like the portable locks. My husband has dementia and I can keep him from wandering. He’ll never know there there.
Patio door security lock demo has convinced me to purchase one and have it installed. I was unaware that such item was made. Thanks for sharing the tips. The vibration siren is another I will obtain.
I love all of them. These make me feel safe knowing that there are products that I can use to deter unwanted intruders
Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge. I didn't realize how vulnerable my sliding glass door is. God bless.
Looked at many different videos and this was by far the best. The suggestions were so easy to understand and install. Highly recommend.
Thank you for this information. I’ve just ordered the alarms.
A W E S O M E !!! Thank you so much. We are seniors with a sliding glass door off our bedroom.
We will do ALL of this. 👍👍👍👍👍
I’m glad I could be of help Grace! Please stay safe out there! 🙏🏽😊
Something to check for: I've seen some sliding glass doors where the non-sliding side of the door can be unscrewed from the exterior. Four screws, the brackets come right out, and now the non-sliding half will slide.
Thanks for sharing these effective and affordable tips!
The best video we've seen on CZcams for explaining how these roberts get in now we were going to protect ourselves We're going to follow your channel You have one of the best channels going Thank you very much we will be subscribing
Thank you so much for all the love and support! 👍🏽😊
Thank you! I’ll be purchasing most of these items. Great content. I’m a renter and my sliding glass door is shabby. The landlord installed the cheapest sliding door and screen. You rock!
Thanks for the video! The screws in the sliding rail is an awesome idea! My dad always cut down hockey sticks for the sliding windows because hockey sticks are very strong.
That’s a smart idea on the hockey sticks method! Thank you for sharing Mary! 🙏🏽😊
Too funny as that is what I have used for years
Yep, had 3 brother’s who played hockey, and that always did the trick!
Waste of time if they have steel wire, insert tween door and frame and just lift that dowel out and they're in.. i was sleeping on the sofa and woke up to this kid standing over me with a carving knife! I played dead til he went into a bedroom. Closed and locked the useless sliding door and dialed the cops n hung up. Laid back down after his thieving trip and played possum. He just unlocked the front door and away. No sign of the cops of course, dumbest idea just latching those doors with no bolt or key to lock the world out.
👍🏼awesome tips ! Keeping your mom safe is priceless !
I got a great tip, choose the right neighborhood to live in!
The dowel is easy and what we use. The screws to prevent lifting is genius!!
Excellent video. I already have a steel rod in each of my sliding doors and windows but I never thought about a thief being able to just lift the door/window up to gain entry. So thank you for an informative video. I will be sharing it. Cheers and blessings!
Good stuff sir, I'm always cognizant of my clients that have sliding glass doors and try to help them to make it more secure. Great tips.
I had some space above so I added the 4 screws similar to what you showed. Works Great! Thanks for the tip!
I use those metal door jambs (you used it for the slider track as an alternative to a wood dowel) on my front and rear doors. Many years ago, someone attempted to kick my door in but the door jamb didn't budge. I hope the person trying to break in received shin splints at the minimum for their efforts.
Ha. My ex husband did that, and screwed up his knee. But, he went to the Military Emergency Room, & claimed it a accident. Nows he trying to get a military disability for his self inflicted Injury. ***
I don't have a sliding glass door but this gave me ideas for the double doors that I have... Thank you!
I’m glad I could be of help! 🙏🏽😊
thank you for this very informative video with a number of options. your puppy is adorable!
Thank you kindly. All these tips are exactly what I needed to study. One of these tips will work for this situation at the lowest cost. Much Appreciation.
This is exactly what I needed! I will definitely be buying some of the safety gadgets. Muchas gracias!
Thank you! I’m glad I could be of help! 🙏🏽😊
Any preventative measures must be easily undone when there is a fire in your home. Also if is more than 4 feet off the ground it is a fire hazard because most likely you will be crawling on the ground with all the smoke around you during a fire.
Excellent information.
just break the glass if there's a fire
Raymond Wong, I have four or five smoke alarms, I’ll be calling the fire department and getting out of my house way before I have to crawl on the floor.
Very interesting! I have both a front door and back sliding door issue at my Mother's so will be taking care of this in the near future. Thank you!!
Very impressed with the thoroughness of your presentation and different lock applications available. I will be purchasing some of these soon and installing them . Thank You so much
Excellent vid. And very well presented. Thank you
Thank you Rich! 🙏🏽😊
This is really helpful! Thank you so much 😊
I’m glad I could be of help Angelita! 🙏🏽😊
Good stuff ! Thanks- it’s pretty sad we have to do these things but stay safe and thank you again.
Awesome security tips. Thank you for sharing and showing us exactly how to implement your suggestions.
Thank you. This is and has been an issue of concern for me, because I was familiar with the door removal, but not the number of tools to increase the security of the overall door removal by a burglar. I will be looking for these in my local Home Depot, now I know they exist. Thanks
I’m glad I could be of help Chet! 🙏🏽😊
Thanks for the great tips Bro...noboy is getting through that door now...😎
I’m glad I could be of help! 🙏🏽😊👍🏽
thank you so much. I will use them all
Really enjoyed this. My parents used a dowel for years. Anything to discourage robbery as they may give up and try somewhere else
As usual, excellent video w clear info. Thanks
Love ur channel😻
Thank you so much Lee for the love and support! 🙏🏽😊
We installed two 1/4" PVC pipes with end caps on both sliders. Works very well. Love your videos, very informative👍🏽Thanks!
Thank you. Im going to buy the ptessure alarm.
Awesome video!!!
Thanks for all this info., very useful.
Thank you so much Steve!
Great video and thanks for the links!
Thank you so much for watching! 🙏🏽😊
Thank you - GREAT video.
Yes we have a top lock, a board and that white round door blocker. We also have the plastic film installed on the glass inside - ours is clear & it's purpose is to prevent the glass from shattering if hit from the outside. I LOVE the idea of the screws up top so the door panel cannot be lifted out! I think we WILL be doing that. Thank you again. Judi
Will be using the privacy film.
Awesome video! I already use the stick-in-the-track but could never figure out how to prevent lift out. The use of screws is so simple and quick that I feel like an idiot for not thinking of it before. The idea of changing out the original handle/lock is going to implemented shortly.
The biggest problem I have with glass doors and windows is that they can simply be smashed to gain entry. But short of that, these ideas are great!
shatter proof film is useful for that
But any window in your house could me smashed as well.
Getting a pad lock for your back gate on the inside keeps burglars from getting to your patio door. Small obstacles will deter most burglars.
Thanks for sharing, these are really helpful for securing your doors and windows. God bless
I had to purchase to security pole for slider before, so I am really glad you recommend. It’s great for an older slider, will try your other recommendations.
Hey brother, thanks so much for your dedication to home safety. So many people have no clue about the simplest fixes to protect yourself and your loved ones. Keep up your great work, love your channel !!
This is Alan, GREETINGS from Southern California.
Great job dude😊
Thank you AJ! 👍🏽
Good stuff. We have always just used the brace in the track. We have a dog that has been the best at letting us know when someone is on the property. He's inside, but he knows when someone is on our property before we ever do.
So interested in the one-sided film! I’ve never seen that before. Great advice. Thank you!!
I have two metal harden metal arms with security locks between the two sliding doors. Door's cannot be lifted or slid forward or back.
Another excellent security feature is an monitored alarm sticker along with my personal laminated small sign right below by the alarm sticker which reads:
CAUTION: HOME OWNER IS ARMED AND WILL NOT HESITATE TO OPEN FIRE WITH AUTOMATIC WEAPON.
YOU MAY DIE ENTERING THESE PREMISES.
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
GOVERN YOURSELF ACCORDINGLY!
You come off like a lunatic! If I was invited to a function @ someone's home that had that kind of signage out front I would turn back around and leave. Clearly you don't have a HOA or you live in Texas.
Trespassers will be shot; survivors will be shot again.
@@CC-si3cr Goodbye then...
Foolish sign as you give your weapons listing and tactics away. By informing the perps as such the perps may consider throwing hand grenades prior to entering every room. The noise alone should stop you.
Those locking security bars might be an issue if you come home and find yourself standing between the intruder and the only other exit.
I use the solid wood on the base to stop it from sliding.
I’m definitely going to do the screws on top.
Thank you for watching! The screws on top is my #1 recommendation, plus it’s cheap! 👍🏽😊🙏🏽
You gave some very easy and practical tips! Thank You!
Damn!--the best thing is that all these are really simple (and cheap) solutions! Very nice!
If they want to get in they just break the glass with a brick. I have security cameras along with a wifi alarm . These two things tell people up to no good to find an easier house.
Until you get someone throwing a center block at your sliding glass door.
Thanks very much! Your videos are quite valuable to the home owner.
Fantastic tips, going to employ several of these in our new house!
The windows on most houses have the same gap at the top.
I believe the lock mechanism is made of aluminum alloy and can not be moved by a magnet
Thank you for the info! Different manufacturers use various materials 🙏🏽😊
Great tips. Be kind to one another. Stay safe. Love to all
Thanks for the vid! Will try a combo 👍
Those doors are to be replaced with french doors .that's how to fix them .
Dude definitely broke into houses before
Wow! This is like a workshop on how to break into a house that have sliding glass doors!
The burglars already know all of these tricks. It's the vulnerable homeowners who need to learn them and take precautions.
I’ll use all of them. Huge thank you!!
We are dealing with nice burglars here since many of them may simply use a rock to break the glass open in no time.
Yep. Or a handheld steel pin window breaking device.
yep and leaving the chairs on the deck help clear the rest of the glass for easy entry. much easier then possibly hurting their foot on a entry door.
