Why
Are Doors So Easily Kicked-in or Forced Open?
Think about this. How many times have you
seen the police on those reality crime shows kick in doors? A lot,
right? Well if a man in a police uniform can do it that easily, then
why can't a burglar also do it that easily? The fact
of the matter is you don't want strangers to be able to easily gain
entry into your home.
Home door security is a
"MUST
DO"
item on all homes!
It all comes down to one critical design flaw and it's found on
virtually every exterior residential door entryway. Most exterior
doors, hinges, deadbolts and door locks are strong.
It's the WOODEN
DOOR FRAME that is the weakest area. Door frames are most often
constructed from softwood trees such as Pine, Spruce and Fir.
The
Deadbolt Security Anchor can be
used with most common model makes of lockset bolts and deadbolts. It
could be used in multi-family homes, businesses, hotels, motels,
restaurants and retail stores.
The Deadbolt Security Anchor is an inexpensive way for most people to protect their homes.

These soft woods can't withstand the
force of a 3/4 inch to 1 inch solid steel deadbolt stem
being massively forced against them as happens when a door
is kicked in.
Most door hinges and strike plates are only attached to 1/2" thick,
soft wood door trim using small, short, weak ½ inch brass screws. As
you can see in the illustration above,
most doors are not truly even
attached to the wall itself (the 2 x 4 studs), but only to the soft
wood trim. The air space is there to allow 'squaring' of the door
frame so the door will hang level, open,
and close
properly.
Nobreach
has created a revolutionary design for a security strike plate that
uses the
actual
structure of the doorway rather than trying to reinforce the ½ inch
door frame as other devices do. Using 16 gauge cold rolled steel
this industrial strength strike plate uses both 2x4s to anchor the
faceplate onto the door frame. Break-ins would require either both
2x4s to break or tear the plate’s 9000 psi rating. With its unique
adjustable replacement cleat design the Deadbolt Security Anchor is
quick and easy to install and does not require adjustments of the
door or door frame. It is visible from the exterior acting as a
deterrent.
A valuable additional feature of the Deadbolt Security Anchor is the
ability to create safe-rooms inside the residence.
A bathroom or closet can be easily and cheaply be created
into a safe-room. Replacing the existing hollow core door with a solid core or steel
door, and replacing the strike plate with a Deadbolt Security Anchor
would fortify the entryway making it virtually impenetrable. Being
inexpensive, more than one safe-room can be installed. (i.e. master
bathroom or closet, hall bathroom or closet.). Use these safe-rooms
to protect your Family, Guns, Food storage and anything of value to
you.
