10 günstige Fenster-Tricks, die Einbrecher nachts hassen

🔗 What you'll need in your house if no deliveries arrive for a week—the quantities for a household, the order in which to invest them, water, heat, and light, all covered in 247 pages of my complete German Survival Code: https://go.hotmart.com/F106025463I One Tuesday in November, I was standing in front of a terraced house and couldn't see anything from the street. The window was closed, the pane was intact, the roller shutter was half down. Inside, the window sash was crooked in the frame, the locking bolt had popped out of the strike plate, the wood was dented in one spot about the size of a thumb, and that was it. No glass on the carpet. No noise. The neighbor across the hall had been standing at her kitchen window all afternoon and hadn't noticed a thing. That's the reason for this video, and it contradicts what you see in American movies: Here, we don't smash doors. We pry them open. The screwdriver goes between the sash and the frame, at the corner where the hardware is located, and the man gives it a single push. It takes seconds, makes almost no sound, and he doesn't cut himself. And there's something else wrong with the image in your head: The man rarely comes at two in the morning. He comes during the darker months, between October and March, and often when it's just gotten dark and no one is home yet. Dark isn't midnight. Dark is 4:30 in winter. Both times, the same thing matters: how long he spends at your window, and how much noise he makes. I'm a master locksmith, forty years in the trade, and I'm the one you call when it's already happened. I'm not going to tell you what it says on the internet—I'm going to tell you what I've seen on windows that have been forced open. Ten things, all inexpensive, the most expensive costing about the same as a meal for two, and three of them cost absolutely nothing: Ten: the thumb test; Nine: tightening the screws on the hardware; Eight: securing the basement grate from the inside; Seven: the light well with two bolts; Six: the anti-lift device on the roller shutter; Five: the additional lock for the window, anchored in the frame; Four: the film on the glass—and its limitations; Three: the patio door and the two-euro strip in the track; Two: the upstairs window that no one locks; One: the window alarm with two magnets. Let's be honest: No hardware in the world will stop someone who actually has time and knows what they're doing. What these ten things do is something else entirely, and it's precisely what works—they cost them time and make noise. The police have been saying it for years in their own brochures, and the crime statistics confirm it: Almost half of all burglaries are thwarted at the attempted stage. Not because of an alarm system. Because of a few seconds too many. There's one thing I'm going to talk you out of in this video, because it sounds so good and is sold so often: the lockable window handle alone. It does prevent someone from reaching through a hole in the glass and turning the handle—that's true, and it remains the cheapest starting point. It does almost nothing against prying, because in that case, the handle isn't turned at all. And since everyone has to replace their windows at some point, here are the three words you absolutely must be saying: resistance class two; mushroom-headed locking bolts all around, not just two next to the handle; and screwed-on security strike plates. Get this in writing in the quote. Just write me one word in the comments: ground floor, basement, terrace, or roof—whatever part of the conversation made you think, "Oh my goodness!" Just the word, no address, no details about your apartment, and no times. That's nobody else's business but yours. Keep an eye on your people. Keep an eye on your people.
