So I installed a dead bolt into my front door this past weekend. Did a pretty good job at it too. I also have an attached 2 car garage. The door to it is in the kitchen. The kitchen door, leading into the garage, is one of those old doors that has the privacy glass. It has the crank handle to open the glass, and theres a screen on the other side. You get a real good breeze thru it with the garage doors open. Anyway, I like the door a lot, so don't want to replace it. I'm going to install a dead bolt there too.
So I'm looking at the garage. There's a back door and a side door. I don't have the money to replace the wooden doors, which I'd like to, because of the large windows in the doors. I plan on putting dead bolts in, but someone just has to break thru the window, and unlock the dead bolt and the door and come right in. So is there anything I can get to where I can cover the glass to protect it from break ins? But make it still look good at least? I don't want to screw in a piece of steel and cover the whole thing up.
Also, in the summer I put in a window a/c because that's where my gym is at too. I'd like to find a way to lock the window in place when I have the a/c in. Don't want anyone to knock the unit out and climb thru the window.
Any ideas?
