Also, people should definitely upgrade their front door locks! A three star euro cylinder will snap, instead of letting the intruder in.

While surely nothing offers complete security, it massively increases the effort required to break in (from essentially zero).



Very few break-ins are accomplished via defeating a lock with something in the vein of a pick (bumping, pick gun, etc). Most break in are accomplished via a broken window/glass door.


Well constructed deadbolt on inside only. Much more concerned with a break in when I'm home than when I'm away and this will help dramatically.
