slugger43 Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 If your door's on the thin side, add 7 or 8 coats of Rhino Liner. A buddy of mine tested it out on 1/4" steel plate, and it SUPPOSEDLY stopped a couple rounds out of his Barrett. I can't wait to verify this one.... Dammit, I wonder if this is finally the excuse I need to convince my bride to buy me a Barrett? <lmao> <laughs> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmackc Posted August 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 (edited) It is a fairly simple to fix small screw holes and countersinks in a strikerplate. Take one small screw out and with a drill bit a couple sizes biggerthan the head of the 3" SS deck screw enlarge the counter sink in one hole run in the new screw and then do the next one. They sell reinforcement plates for the door lock and deadbolt. I like the idea of painting the door with Rhino bed coating.

unforgiven Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 The flip-over limiters used in a lot of motels are a lot more effective and quicker to use. Same thing here though, as un forgiven noted, buy some longer screws for these, also. Wife locked keys to the motel room in the room,we had door limiter flipped on the door.There were 2 entrances.Employee stuck a rolled up paper between the door and limiter and fliped it open in a matter of minutes.Don't put alot of faith behind it.

shepp Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 There's a trick to damn near everything, when I was doing new houses I could pick a standard door lock in less than a min with an old drivers license. Where there's a will there's a way, at least you can try and slow someone down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

survivalshop Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 I don't normally talk about my security , but I had a package delivered to my door & I was out of town & informed my Neighbors that I would be away & we had some Monsoon rains coming ,so one of my Neighbors saw the package on my porch & stopped & took back to his house . I texted him & thanked him for picking it up . When I got home , he said , how did you know I got you package , I said I watched it dropped off & watched you pick it up . He said he has to get that system. <thumbsup> <laughs> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmackc Posted August 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 (edited) Yeah, that is the kind of wireless camera surveillance system I am building, and I can use the WIFI on the new vehicle to couple my Kindle Fire HD in almost real time. Or maybe it is time to give up the TRACFONE and get a smartassphone reckon?I Or, maybe, be like Hilliary and have to put in my own server so that I can have to carry only one electronic device! :drool: >:D Edited August 19, 2015 by mrmackc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shepp Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 (edited) A friend of my boss has a system like that one, one of his properties he was boarding horses an some other stuff for a woman who embezzled millions outta the city of Dixon IL ( he didn't know that part). Well the FBI came in and raided his property to get all her stuff, he watched it all from his iPhone, till the Feds took his computer.....
