    I decided to order a few things as deterrents n such .
    Got robbed last summer , they stole my generator and my back pack blower .
    Hopefully these things will help

    Signs like these are 6 to 10 bucks each, this is not a bad deal, put some in the front, in the back, by the pole barn etc.
    10 Pack Sign Set
    Ordered these ,[Upgrade Version] 1byone® Safety Driveway Alarms
    And a couple other things that shall remain a mystery :)

    I use a slightly different deterrent. My pickup is parked near the front of the driveway nose in. Across the back window is a rifle rack with two empty slots.

    I remember when you posted the thread on your robbery last summer HD, tough luck. Did the bad guys just make their way into the garage only? Just reading this thread reminded me of that.
    All I have is a locked door on my garage and my garage has more in it worth stealing than the house.
    I might consider something more too, for the garage that is. The house has the 2 pooches when we aren't home, they would scare me if I was the bad guy.

    They just got into my shed, pole barn would be harder to get into but, if they want to get in, they will
    I don't know the percentage but I know there are a lot more garages that get broken into then houses.
    Also the criminals know how to open your electric garage door easily, the frequencies they work on are no secret.
