Re: Do you lock your front door?

I replied "always" only because my husband is ANAL about having the door locked...even when we are home.....

However, when i was growing up, we would only really lock our door if we went on vacation....for 2 years after I graduated from college but moved back home, I didn't even have a key to the house but it didn't matter b/c we never locked the door...

sounds crazy...but we just never really felt the need to.

The best part is, my dad owned his own alarm company, so we had this really fancy alarm with motion sensors in each room, etc and didn't even use it!Chat Icon Chat Icon

My doors are locked at all times. Not for safety, but because my kid can open them and walk out.

Re: Do you lock your front door?

We always lock our door; however, growing up in Queens (Auburndale), my parents NEVER locked the door unless we were going someplace for the day. If they were running to the store or we were in the house, it was never locked (except at night). SO CRAZY looking back.

I remember my friends having keys to their front door in 5th/6th grade & they asked where mine was & I said I didn't need it Chat Icon We also lived right across from the school/park (pretty pretty crazy!) Thankfully we never had any problem.

Re: Do you lock your front door?

locked and alarmed... we also have locks on all our gates... which pisses off the slomans guys everytime they come...

but i have to say when walking my dog especially in the spring/summer i see many houses with only the screen door closed...

i would NEVER do that... i don't even like putting the screen in the door...

my neighbor says i'm like that because i'm from queens... i just think she's asking for trouble...

Yes. Right after I say hello to the man with the shotgun in my house & give the "not to attack" command to my pitbull.

that's the first thing i thought when i saw this..

all someone has to do is see this post, then see the thread with 'post pics of your house' or 'post the town you live in' and Boom.. you've handed a thief a perfect opportunity

be careful people!!
