[QUOTE="overthehill, post: 5808, member: 251"] In reality all you can do is make it more difficult to take a bike - nothing will stop the informed, equipped, determined thief. Things that make a noise are good – my wife still cant understand why the garage is alarmed but the house is not ! . My mate recently lost a garage load of bikes – he had locks and padlocks and scaffolding poles securing the garage and parked his van up against it at night. The thief broke into the kitchen window – put his hand round the side of the door to where all the keys were hanging on their key hooks - took all of the keys, moved the van, unlocked the garage and the padlocks, loaded the bikes into the van and drove off -all while my mate slept like a baby in the house. – lost one van and 3 bikes. I suppose its good reason to alarm the house as well as the garage! [/QUOTE]
