have specced 6.4 mm laminated security glass ,reinforced frames with extra bolts incorparated , bought 2 windows and 2 doors was an extra £400 above standard , it won't stop a concerted attack but it will give you longer to gather yourself and prepare to meet the invaders.

Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.

I personally would like to go further with the security but the family don't want to feel like they live in a prison and i think the upgrade is an unobtrusive improvement...may want to move one day and it might put buyers off lol

i'd be concerned with drawing attention to much if it looks heavily secured people will get curious about whats inside.

i'd like window shutters on the inside but...been vetoed on that one and if i put them on the outside it would look out of sync with the rest of the street.

if you keep it in a garage or shed NOBODY is going to see it. lots of people are keeping plywood and other sheet materials for when TSHTF in their garages or sheds, the idea is to get it before TSHTF and the prices go up.

Looking over the thread, it's interesting to note how many of us believe that the Gulf Stream and our financial instability are major concerns.

Am I really the only one who considers the Yellowstone caldera a major threat?
I'm NOT political so DON'T correct me!
