How To STOP Sliding Door Break Ins — 10 Cheap Fixes Every Homeowner Should Do Tonight

🔗 Keep your home, or your parent's home, off a burglar's list with my complete locksmith's guide: waltcormier.com A family came home from a weekend away and found their back slider standing wide open. Nothing was forced. The latch was still flipped. The lock they trusted was still latched — holding onto nothing at all. It took about fifteen seconds. The sliding glass door is the softest way into most American homes. It's glass, it's usually out back where nobody can see, and the little factory latch is something a burglar has beaten a hundred times. The good news? The fixes that actually work cost less than last night's dinner, and some of them cost nothing at all. In this video I walk you through ten cheap fixes every homeowner can do tonight or this weekend — no contractor, no monthly contract. You'll find out: • how a locked slider can be opened without breaking anything — and the two-minute fix that stops it • the free fix that's probably sitting in your closet right now • the trick I used to give customers for free, and why the salesmen hated it • what a burglar does when he can't beat the lock, and how to make sure it doesn't work • the quiet problem almost nobody checks, and how to tell in ten seconds if your door has it • the door in your house you've probably forgotten even exists • and the one walk around your back yard that changes how you see your home The person testing your slider isn't a genius. He's looking for the easy one — out of sight, quiet, quick. Every fix in this video takes one of those away, so he gives up and moves on to the next yard. And one rule that matters more than any lock: if you ever come home and the slider's open, or you hear glass break at night, don't go check it yourself.
