No special security other than a deadbolt on my one door, but I'm in a 2nd floor condo and my neighbors are all long timers. Someone putting a ladder up to my balcony would raise immediate suspicions, particulary because all outdoor repairs need to be approved by the board and are posted.

My neighbor across the hall has someone home almost all day long every day, so they'd probably notice someone other than me hanging around.

You could climb up the back wall of the building -- sheer wall -- by shooting a hook up onto the roof. But you'd be in plain sight of the apartments behind me all the time. You'd also have to lower the guitars down then go back up and get more or you'd need a confederate on the ground to lower them down to. The probability of this happening in my neighborhood is nil because no "pro team" with these skills would expect anyone to have anything that valuable.

In terms of alarms ... there was a gang here in LA that was getting through the best in the market in under 10 minutes. Dogs -- I agree with the poster who said they're easier than one my think to deal with. I had a good friend with two highly trained Rottweillers and "whoever" simply did the expedient thing and shot them from a distance.

So I guess my security is nosey neighbors and living in an area pros would ignore as not being a wealthy area.

Now. I feel you're just itching to tell us all about your ingenious security measures. So fire away - including any access codes and such we might need.

Don't mention it. It was my pleasure to serve this great country of ours. Thank YOU for paying your taxes!!

Kind of the same here jeebus. I have two boxers (one male and one female) who are inside dogs. My wife is a "hardware" fanatic. More than enough to hold off a small army if it came to that.

I have been told the only thing that comes out of my mouth is sarcasm. Lucky I'm typing and not talking! peace

I lock the door sometimes.

I hate you for this post.

My first thought was, 120 ninjas? That's space 3 degrees apart for best coverage, so from one side of the castle I could take out 60, so at 5 rounds a magazine, I'd need........

Then I realized I was thinking way too deeply into how to get into your make believe compound.

But just so you know, I could.
