Shed Security

[Alembicbassman]

I have gone to paranoid level on my garage.

The vehicle doors are 2.5 Inch indusrial fire doors with a lead lining. The inside has two hasps and clasps and top bolts on both doors

The pedestrian doors is 1.5 inch plywood with a dexion fitted top to bottom 6 inches apart to stop an electric saw.The door has a lockable slide bolt and a hasp and clasp

I have two set of triple 10 aluminium ladders hung horizontaly across the windows, the ladders are locked and chained to the wall at each end.

My bikes are chained to a huge eyebolt fitted to the wall with 4 x 4" bolts with the nut part now ground off.

I have a quality alarm system (I work in the alarm trade and was at one time an alarm engineer) consisting of a mains alarm with battery back up plus contacts on all doors and a dual technology movement detector

Chadwell Heath must a rough place

Chadwell Heath is ok. Most of the stuff I used was free, the vehicle doors were from a building site, the alarm was an old one from work and the eye bolt was provided by my BIL who fits shutters and grills for a living.

About 12 years ago I had my garage broken into and my tools nicked so I was security conscious of security before I bought the new bike.

I have fitted security lights in the garden today .

My house has an alarm that would be suitable for a jewelers fitted it myself.

My Almax Immobiliser series 4 chain and lock arrived today. Wow! A serious bit of kit. Really heavy and just the right length to lock two bikes together to the ground anchor. Combined with two alarms and security lighting, that's probably the best I can do.

I'm looking around at the moment for a suitable chain and lock. I have already cut away an area of floorboards, laid a concrete block with a ground anchor embedded in it and relaid the floorboards. I have a shed bar arriving soon to add security to the outside the shed. With an alarm on the door plus a PIR alarm in the shed I'm hoping that this will be enough to protect my bikes. I am also going to ask the local police officer to come out and offer his/her advice.
My pride and joy version 2 remains indoors for the time being.

Answer to that is in the post above you, that or the Series III which is pictured below (my old chain and lock combo)

After my garage door was smashed off the frame and two bikes stolen last year my bikes live indoors with me now.

And don't forget, when putting your bikes away be aware of who's watching.

Two good points

Even if you pay for good security, insurance is always good too.
