All,
Appologies if this is a bit off topic but I thought people here may be able to give me some good advice.
Last Friday afternoon my parents house got broken into. All of their windows are double glazed with locks. It seems the kids went around to the back of the house and managed to force open two windows despite them both being locked. They were eventualy thwarted by the alarm system going off when they entered the house and just did a runner.
I now have doubts about the security of the windows in my own house. We had new windows installed by Anglian about 2 years ago and one of the benefits was the added security. If these things can be just wrenched open then is this a false sense of security? I guess there is no stopping someone who is realy determined to enter the property but it would be nice to think that the locked windows are some deterrent.
Thanks Andy
