Is there a anti-theft device for out-swing doors?

Post by Mary Navarro » Thu Jun 12, 2003 11:31 pm

Most of the doors on my homes open to the outside. When a tenant forgets their key, they just pry the edge of the door back and they're in. My shop door has an anti-theft plate mounted around the door knob, is there a simular product for MH's?

Mary,

When you say pry open the door, I have to guess that they use a screwdriver or bar and pry the jamb from the door. You may want to simply remove the interior door trim and add shims so the jamb cant be moved back. This should stop what is happening. Let me know if it works.
