--- Quote from: TampaTony on April 03, 2009, 11:20:24 AM ---...... For those of you with sliding glass doors, I would try to "break in" to your house...you will be amazed at how easy it is...I was. I made it much more difficult by drilling 2 holes for each door, left and right and getting decent sized screws that will not bend. I screwed the screws in just enough so that the door would still slide, but if you tried to lift it off of the track it wouldn't budge.

Strong doors and windows with good locks are the 1st steps to good home security.

I hope that works out for you. The teens know the area very well. They know when people go to work... and when they get home. They even know how long it takes for the police to show up.

I have a thread here about keeping them outside. There are plenty of things a home owner can do to deter and discourage both the teenage punks... as well as prison trained professionals.

astrothug mentioned using BVC (as do I). A perimeter detection system is cheap and easy to setup... and I think is very effective. I have several YouTube Videos you might find helpful too.

TampaTony: Welcome to the forum and thanks for sharing your experience with the DS7000. It is a great system for the price and even though it's not the top of the line in home security, it does provide comfort in knowing that it is helping to protect your family & home.

I'm glad some negative posts didn't turn you away. If you are like most of us here, you will probably want to continue to expand your system. If you ever have any questions, just ask.... that's why we hang out around here.  :)

Just a heads-up based on personal experience: the 2-way tape for the Door/Window sensors do dry out and fall off (usually when you are far away from home); if you can't screw them down, use self-sticking Velcro strips... I use it on most of mine and not one has slipped off in 3 years.

TampaTony:
Thanks for the tip on the velcro strips Puck...great idea. I will probbably go that route. >!

The bad: The borderline pornographic website that you order from almost made my wife not want to get the system.

Humm.....  Pornographic that's a little harsh! Maybe more like soft Porn.  Welcome aboard!  rofl  :)%

I had issues with the tape falling off my sliding patio doors.  I used clear silicone caulking (a small line of it) to adhere the sensor to the door.  So far it has worked great.  I am hoping it does the job as a waterproof adhesive and can flex with temperature changes.  Has anyone else tried this?  I though that it will be easy to remove if the sensor needs replaced, but will stay up longer than the tape.
