Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

True, but again it's about making it as inconvenient as possible. Manually locking windows and making sure they are locked is effective. In some places they put security bars on the windows. Tall fences can also create obstacles as well.
You won't stop everyone that wants to break in, but you can create enough trouble to keep out most people. Making it convenient for yourself by connecting everything to the internet just makes it convenient for everyone else too.
You can't ever stop someone who really wants to get into your home. The best you can do is make your home look too tedious to bother with.
Or make your neighbor's home more attractive. Try keeping the neighbor's house key, neatly labelled & with alarm code, under your own doormat. Just in case.
Yes,but you don't do yourself any favours by leaving the front door open.
Tall fences are usually privacy fences and they can make it really easy for a thief to spend a ton of time unseen in your backyard.
Usually, but not always. I'm thinking more of the bar fence with spikes at the top.
Is the fence going to have a gate, and is that gate going to be locked? If so, you better put a fence around it to be safe.
locks keep people honest, and make thieves pick a house that's less of a hassle.
