Years ago I was doing demolition job at old steel fabrication shop, well the place was abandoned for many decades, but there was a feont office room where the door would not open, we tried everything to break that door down, we tried sludge hammers, old fashioned body weight, rams like police use, nothing would work the door moved in and out about 3 or 4 inches but we still couldn't see what was in the way of it Well i eventually had get a ladder and go in through front window to the office, well i got in through the window and when we realized what the obstruction was we were laughing our azzes off big time, it was a rusty hollowed out tin broom handle that could easily have been bent by half by hand, but the way it provided leverage and was set up it would have taken a freaking bulldozer!!

6” rebar stake at the bottom of the door. You can always bend it in from the top but you arent climbing through it. Water charge will get it moving though.

[@James-ke5sx]

I started my career as a carpenter 40 years ago repairing houses after break and entries and fortifying them to prevent further break-ins. Unfortunately one of those houses turned into a drug house and when the police tried to get in they couldn't break the doors. After that they held a little conference in Montreal and the next time they found a place that was that well fortified they were allowed to use small explosives and that's when I got out of the B&E business and just did regular house renovations.

this is why most of the usa specifies wood doors....they want to make it easy for the cops to kick in.

[@jamesjusick1462]

I was a cop who bashed down hundreds of doors executing search warrants. The easiest doors were metal with a wooden frame, inside opening. The strong door held together delivering all of the force from the battering ram into the bolt that tore right through the wood. A metal door in a metal frame could be a lot harder, they took three hits instead of one. Outside opening doors are to hart to bash in, so we used a special pry bar that we set in the jam and popped it right open in a few seconds. Having two deadbolts, one high and one low on an outward opening door was the hardest, they had to have the ram set twice to three times costing a lot of time.

[@TeresaRaab-hb5co]

[@bdgackle]

It might be a bad thing though. When the networks show us videos of the cops standing outside the school they have to remove the audio of the children screaming. Making the doors harder to get through would increase editing costs. It would also increase labor costs for law enforcement, since they'd have to wait longer for the incident to end so they can go in and start the clean up process.

Thanks for this door security method . Actually , here in my country Uganda , we once used that method of door security in the early 1980s as our family when Uganda was insecure . We used metal hinges and then attached some pieces of wood whenever we went to sleep . We used at least three . So it's not new here to us in Uganda but ....thanks for that idea because...it's really security proof

Nate: Practical advice to slow down a perpetrator. A few seconds of deterrence can mean time for reaction time response. Nice job!

Yeah expensive and worth it! But the Dooricades were easy to purchase and install for minimal cost.

Without removing the casing, you can drill and counter sink thin screws or nails above and below the hardware to offset the need for shims. Some door jambs may need a recess chiseled out to allow the metal to slip in. Nice design.

As a firefighter. I once responded on a fire, where they had secured the door in a similar manner. 2x4, secured in a bracket. The guy trying to breach the door, bounced off several times and kicked it so many times, the door literally broke in half. If you are going to do this, I would recommend two. Here is the caveat tho. If you have a fire, you will have that much more trouble getting out. Firefighters will have that much more trouble getting in to rescue you and suppress the fire. I would recommend something like this for a business, but for a home, only has an emergency backup.

I actually purchased this. Thanks Nate. Somebody noted that windows are also a soft spot... other than bars or maybe plexiglass.... kind of hard to reinforce them. All I'm wanting is enough time to get myself in a defensive position where I can severely punish the attackers. The thing about most modern homes is that they are really very flimsy - you can shoot right through the walls from outside and of course inside... so if you really want a secure home, you're going to have to build one custom with bulletproof materials or reinforce your existing home with bulletproof panels which are very costly.

[@jasonbrownlee7467]

If someone has the time and right tools, it's nearly impossible to keep someone out. What you want is time to react if you're there, and to make it so difficult to break in they give up if you're not. Some other tips: don't mount your deadbolt right above door handle, easy to kick in. Mount deadbolt near top of door, about head height. Dang near impossible to kick in then. Replace all your door screws(hinges, latch plate etc) with long 3 inch screws if possible. I've thought long about how to protect windows, and in SHTF situation, I'm gonna take heavy duty wire fencing and securely attach INSIDE the window. Yes, you can cut through with wire cutters, but the key is that takes time, time for you to react🤷‍♂️

I’ve seen break ins where the front door is the ingress and there is definitely practically here. Might work well for a duplex or apartment where there are limited entry points. At least you can create a bottleneck if one entrance is eliminated. Realistically, the next option for someone or someones is to move to a window or glass door and walk out a door opened from the inside in a SHTF. Still love it. Would make a lot of sense in garage where someone might be willing to break in and steal a car or tools and not attempt the house where they might encounter resistance. Sad it’s come to this in most places.

I have a poorly made door that had the wood inside split in many locations. To fix it after gluing together, I replaced normal hinges with a "piano hinge" the height of the door. Several attempts to break in since have been unsuccessful so the roughly 100 screws in the piano hinge takes all the forces. On the latch side, a pair of interlocking metal plates meant to prevent getting tools near the deadbolt seems to be good (lots of tool scratching).
