"Beef Up" Your Door Security Hardware

!±8± "Beef Up" Your Door Security Hardware

The easiest way for a robber to get into is through the front, back or garage doors. Any competent robber knows that the garage door is ordinarily the easiest means to come in with the back door being next. And the reason is that either of these doors are usually well hidden from the road and neighbors. It is easy for a thief to gain entry into your home by a simple kick or "shoulder slam".

According to the FBI 73% of burglars gain entry into a place of residence is by kicking-in the door. What is it about exterior doors that make them so easy for a thief to gain easy access into a home or office? Take a good look at the door-frame on your front door. The weakest point is the strike plate that holds the lock or deadbolt in place. There is only 3/8 of an inch of softwood shielding the security of your home.

The exterior doors, hinges and security locks are not what makes it easy for break-ins to occur. It is the door-casing (a.k.a. Door-frame or door-jamb) that is the weakest part. Most door-jambs are made from softwood trees like Pine, Spruce and Fir. Softwoods like these just can not withstand the impact of a large solid steel deadbolt latch being shoved against them. This is what happens when a burglar attempts to kick in or shoulder slam a door. In addition, standard door hinges and strike plates on most homes use only 1/2" or 3/4" long screws which do not give much if any reinforcement to the door-frame. You can easily see for yourself by removing one and measuring it.

What do you need to do to make your exterior doors more secure? To make your doors more secure, start by beefing up the hardware in the door casings. The easiest and most effective way is to replace that small, weak strike plate on the door-frame with an extra-long steel door-jamb reinforcement product. Then replace all those short screws with much longer, stronger ones that penetrate deep into the wall studs.

A popular door-jamb fortifying product is the Door Devil Anti-kick Door Security device. Three important and unparalleled features distinguish this product ahead of the competition. Those distinctive and useful features are strength, ease of installation and guarantee. Let's talk about each one of those features:

1) Each Door Devil kit comes with everything you will need to "beef-up" and kick-proof one standard-size entry door on your home. The kit includes a 48" steel door-frame up-grade security unit, 3.5" heavy-duty screws, window decals and a yard sign to let any would-be home intruder know that your home is off-limits. The device is also designed with a unique 45 degree edge making it possible to defy greater kick force while at the same time making the door easier to close after the unit has been installed.

2) Installs easily right onto the existing door-frame. There is no need to take apart the casing or hardware. The kit also comes with the proper drill bit to make the door security upgrade fast and simple. Typical installation takes less than half an hour per kit.

3) Door Devil comes with a 3x anti kick-in guarantee. No door security product will to stop a determined robber, however, Door Devil has been so rigorously tested, that the manufacturers will refund triple the purchase price if their product is ever defeated. You will be hard pressed to find another door security product that carries such a guarantee.

Door Hinges - How to Install New Ones

!±8± Door Hinges - How to Install New Ones

Whether it's because your door is old and no longer works with your décor, or you want something a little more flashy in the space, trading out doors and door hinges is not too difficult of a job.

Don't think you can do it? Think you need a lot of tools to get the job done? Think again. All you need is a few shims, or thin pieces of wood that can be slipped under the door to hold it at the right height, nails or an electric screwdriver and the door and door hinges.

Here are the steps for taking on the installation process.

Selecting the what you need is easy. Measure the old door that you are taking out of this space and write those measurements down. When it comes to selecting door hinges, consider what this door will be asked to do. If the door is going to get a lot of use you may want to use three 3-inch door hinges to make sure it's sturdy and will hold in place. This is especially the case if it is an exterior door. One way to tell what kind of door hinges to choose is to look at what was being used on the door you are removing.

The easy way to install the door and door hinges is to install the new door hinges where the old ones were. This only works if you selected the same size door hinges as you previously had on the door with proper hole-spacing. If not, you may have to use some wood putty to fill the old holes, and then put the new hinges wherever you would like.

When deciding where the door hinges will go remember, doors are supposed to open into the room, they are also traditionally expected to open to a wall, not to flap in the open area of the room.

If you have someone handy, you may want to bring them into play at this time. Line up the door where you think it should be placed, using shims to balance it off the ground enough that it will open and close. You should put the first screw in at this point, at the top of the door. Make sure someone is holding up the weight of the door (or keep it on shims) so the weight doesn't pull that screw out.

Close the door and make sure it shuts properly. It should be hitting the strike plate evenly. If not, adjust the shim placement until you have even amounts of space all the way around and the door seems to be evenly set. Immediately put a screw in the bottom door hinges. This will make sure you have the door hinges lined up in a manner that will allow the door to open and close correctly.

With this screw in, check one more time to make sure it's lined up properly, then install the remaining screws in the door hinges and the job is done.
