My dog has really been a great asset in many ways. Including home security.

My wife is very much like a doe in the woods. She’ll hear everything at night. When she wakes me up because she heard something, dog is the one that lets me know if I can just sink back to sleep or not

Not to mention anyone casing our neighborhood would take one look at dog and move along.

When you begin an 'article' with:

There's more to it than Bang Bang for Home Defense -

Do you really expect to be taken seriously?

Oh, it's 'Am Shooting Journal'. Not to be taken seriously, ever.

A simple rule I use: don’t signal that you have anything worth taking.

I’ve got all of the items on the list:

Assay Alboy unbumpable deadbolts
Kick resistant internal locks (not possible to open from outside when inside)
Security doors with EZ armor on the frame (which also protects hinges)
Security system hooked to a cell system so the wires can’t be cut
Many cameras
3M security film (4mm) preinstalled on all windows
A simple piece of wood in window tracks so they don’t open
2 highly trained (professionally) Dobermans
Storm doors on all outside doors.
Rose bushes below windows

Solid wood doors with kick proof latch on all bedrooms.

Several firearms at easy disposal. Prefer .357 revolver.

I grew up in Gush Katif (Samaria). We don’t screw around.

● An Alarm System
● Motion Detection
● Mobile Remote Viewing
● Reinforce Exterior Doors

I have all four. And then there are the weapons platforms I have to repel or eliminate anyone who defeats 1 through 4.

We have most of the above, plus this - got sign from a wealthy gun collector who had his collection broken into 3 times - this sign stopped all attempts:

If a robber sees cameras set up around your property, they’ll most likely move right past your house onto an easier target.

If a buyer sees these in a house for sale they'll keep moving right past too. It's a big clue the house has bad neighbors.
