What are some good ways to secure your home? I'm buying my first house right now: single story with finished basement. Here's what I plan to do right away:
>security cameras, 360deg, plus interior entrances and inside the garage
>window laminate
>motion sensor lights on all corners of the house
>motion sensor light on garage exterior
>blackout curtains drawn from day -1
>vehicles always parked in garage or out of sight
>replace wooden back door with steel
>longer hinge screws
>hinge screw pins to help prevent forced entry

One big question I have is about locks. I can't seem to find anything good. I kinda want an electronic deadbolt that will lock automatically, but they all seem to have VERY low security traditional lock bypasses.

If you think I'm crazy, look at portland last year. look at DC this week. look at chicago and detroit since forever ago.

What the military uses and razor wire are not the same things. It is not nearly as sharp. The worst part about it is getting it stuck on your clothes.
