Car security

[brilie]

After recent events security measures have been put in place.
First to happen was a new alarm for the house.
Next thing was one of these




Hope this will be a good deterant for the scroats
Maybe cctv next but all they seem to do is film scroats
Stealing your cars

It is surprising what we now have to go through to secure our possessions. I have an Alarm that calls me, CCTV with 6 cameras that i can view on my phone. I have big gates with a maglock on each which you have to fob to open. I also have a set of external beams to be put across the gates but yet to fit them.

Unfortunately it's just the sign of the times ,!
Where will it end?

Post looks a good visual deterrent, hope your parking sensors pick it up Brian for the first time you forget to put it down?

Whats with the 51 plate Brian?

I am fortunate though as i am in the trade. So does not really cost me that much. If you go for CCTV buy a Hikvision Dvr dont let some one fit one they recommend. You can get a 4 channel one for under £200 with a 2TB hard drive then just buy some external dome cams for around £40 each

Forgot to mention the Hikvision is a well known brand in the Industry

@brilie , "Where will it end?" Er, a pill box and machine gun in the front garden - that's what I want! Shoot the barstewards.

I hope you can't get the car past the post.

All you can do is deter them to the point where it's easier for them to go elsewhere.
Doors with high quality locks, multiple latches and hinge bolts, glass that can only be removed from the inside.
Keep window locks locked when you're out.
Keep keys away out of sight and nowhere near the front door.
Keep all tools and ladders locked up.
If you're going away use lights on timers.
You can go on and on and on.....

It would be useful if you could have a sacrificial key. That is one that looks identical to your normal keys but all it does is set the alarm off if it gets used. Just leave it where it might be found if someone breaks in to get it. That would come as a shock to anyone lifting your keys by breaking in.
Also, car security could be linked to the registered Bluetooth from your phone. We rarely go out without our phones nowadays. Without that you have to key in a code even if you have the key.

No....have a brick wall,just out of shot!
Lists of good ideas there but it's all technology.
What's difficult about putting keys in your ignition?
Keyless cars that can be stolen in 30 seconds with
A form off amplifier that picks up your key fob from
The Drive exaggerates the signal so your car thinks
The key is within a yard of the car so open the door and start it!
Easy!
Old fart that's me ,driveway post and a crook lock,
Hope it works,all we can do is deter!!!

Oops!

that's what I want! Shoot the barstewards.

I've heard worse ideas

 

[Redline]

That's the problem. They insist in having the technology that itself is a weakness because someone will find a way of defeating it. Remote technology can be defeated remotely. You have no choice but accept it if that's the car you want.

I've heard worse ideas

That's way to quick.
How about a box that you can remotely release and open to drop a tarantula or funnel web spider into their lap as they drive off. Let's have car theft with jeopardy...
