[QUOTE="corwin1968, post: 1404123, member: 15936"] HKCHEF, Thank you for this thread and the information you provided me about Armor Concepts' products. I ordered three of the EZ Armor kits since their primary kit is described as being designed for new builds, major renovations or professionals. I feel a sense of frustration because although I plan basically shout from the rooftops to everyone I know that they need to reinforce their doors, I know not many people will follow thru. I'm not sure I would have before this weekend. I would have said "sounds like a damn good idea" and then probably forgotten about it. We live in a 1.5 year old house in a very nice sub-division in a very nice part of Oklahoma City and someone kicked in our door while me, my wife and my 6 and 9 year old nieces slept!! Every time I think about how close they were to entry (literally one good shove and the door frame would have given) and how close my wife and I came from walking right into them it just seems surreal. It literally reaffirms my faith in a higher power and possibly destiny. I would ask EVERYONE who reads this to PLEASE do something to fortify your home against invaders. These kits cost 70 bucks each and reportedly take about 30 minutes to install. For the average person that's $140 and a hour's time to PROTECT YOUR FAMILY. One thing I've learned is that nothing will stop a determined invader but the more you slow him down the more likely he is to give up and seek easier targets. Also, when this happened I was asleep and under the influence of Nyquil so even 5-10 seconds of extra time might have made a huge difference in my alertness. There are many ways to deter or slow down a thief and HKCHEF has listed some good ones. Take advantage of this information before something happens to endanger your loved ones. This thread needs to be a sticky. [/QUOTE]
