Grain store door

[Laggard]

Has anybody fitted a more secure door than this one and could you share a link please?

Made our own from 6mm plate and box section opens in with hinges on the inside, I would leave it as it is or they will trash your roller shutter to get in ££££

...or cut straight through the sides!

I use personnel doors from Kirncroft. kirnsecuredoors.com
Stick them on all our grainstores and industrial units now. Have had several breaks in and they have always given up with these personnel doors but generally found another way into building. (Been through roof, blockwork walls smashed in, grinder through metal sheets, rammed rollershutter doors.)
Had all hinges cut off these doors, attempted to jimmy them open, locks smashed out but never opened one yet.
As mentioned above though I have not stopped them getting into buildings. Just had to repair/replace personnel door and then additionally blockwork/roof sheets etc.

Thank you for the advice, I think I’ll leave it as it is then.

Money probably better spent on a Master Blaster siren alarm. If they get in they will not hang about for long. Seriously hurts the ears.

We use a Master blaster and we also have triple bang gas powered bird scarer
and when we test it and we know it is going to go off you can not stand in there for long and they are so high up so they can not get to them
and when you test them at night there is one hell of flash out of scarer its like a 12 bore gun
since we put that in we only had one attempted brake in.

Brilliant, how do you set the banger to go off?

We have it tied in with an alarm system so if the alarm goes of the scarer goes of after a time delay of about 1 to 2 minutes
All hell brakes out
It was the police told us about doing it. They said have something that makes a lot of noice
I know of a place we’re they use a WW2 air raid siren when that goes of the whole village phone the police

Can these Master Blaster things be fitted yourself, or is it a professional job ?

 

[db9go]

I've seen an identical roller & door combo, with the door opening outwards like yours.

There was a road barrier folded across both doors, with a shielded padlock.

I like the gas banger idea. Would certainly sh!t you up in the dark. Is it on a movement or thermal sensor?

Or a smartwater spray for workshops?

thats whet police told us, they can spend hours getting into something if no ones around, i fitted alarm which texts me with loud syrens, police said something nice and loud scares them off.

We have a master blaster on a pole 20 foot up in the air very visible from the road and had no night time visitors in the three years it's been there. Scares the crap out of you went you set it of by mistake.

Years ago I helped out at a stables and all stable doors were alarmed. Boss overslept one day so I set it off. No idea if it was a Master Blaster but by crikey it was loud and piercing, you really couldn't stand it for more than a couple of minutes, the sound made me all panicky.

You need a physical vehicle barrier to stop them even getting into the yard to begin with, otherwise they can just use a vehicle to ram their way into light doors or structures.

Yard I know of they have a very loud alarm system and two giant spotlights fitted, when they go off at night it's pretty overwhelming.

No good leaving a dog you think anything of in there, they will poison it, or find another way to kill it.

check the galv steel panel above door, ours was only tech screwed on, it could easily and quietly be removed, climb in and open big door.

I drilled them through and fitted bolts/locknuts
