I'm looking for some ideas on how to better secure the entry door(s) to my home.
The criteria are:
Longer screws for the strike plates.
Taller strike plate.
I've kicked around the idea of replacing the trim piece the strike plates screw into with PVC or a hardwood like Oak. This is in conjunction with the 2 ideas above.
Has anyone else seen other ideas that look sound?
Thanks.
The criteria are:
- It has to integrate into the existing door and not require any additional manipulation to engage it.
- It can't be an obvious addition that takes away from the aesthetics. No bar across the door.
