Move into our first home over the next couple of weeks.
The excitement of finally having a garage you wouldn't believe. However, the fear of being broken into isn't!
The garage currently has a centre lock and 2 padlocks each side.
Looking at Garage Defenders, but wonder if that's just attracting people to the fact toys lurk inside.
Hows everyone keep secure??

Re: Garage Security
Do you have access to the inside of the garage from inside the house?
If so bolt it from the inside.

Unfortunately not, its in a block opposite the kitchen window. Car will be parked on the drive in front of it overnight, so more a day time thing reallyduke63 wrote:Do you have access to the inside of the garage from inside the house?

Re: Garage Security
My own opinion on garage defenders is they just flag up there is something worth nicking inside.
That said i see they now do a slightly less obvious version which if painted the same colour as the door would hardly be noticeable from a distance.
Some ideas here.
Definitely chain the bike to the floor inside.
