No, I didn’t, but I have no means of knowing how invincible your gate is (e.g., can it be circumvented, can it be taken off its hinges?)

Criminals look for "soft" targets. A home that has a "hard" front door may be "hard" in other ways, so the criminal is more likely to keep moving, looking for a softer target.

We have an arch that leads into a walled courtyard. The wrought iron and gate spans the whole arch top to bottom. Sure it can be taken off the hinges, etc. but would take quite some time. A heckuva lot more time than kicking in the front door.
