We would say: yes, but with conditions. First of all, a door chain is helpful when uninvited visitors are at the door. It allows the house or apartment door to be opened only a crack. There are different models of door chains: lockable and non-lockable \u2013 there is even a model for which the door leaf does not even need to be drilled into, but which can simply be hung over the door handle from the inside. Door chains are, for example, a very valuable protection when it comes to child safety. After all, small children love to experiment, and they could easily slip out of the apartment unnoticed. Here, a door chain provides security. However, in the event of more severe force applied by a burglar, a door chain is by no means sufficient. The chain itself is made of steel, making it sturdy and only breakable with professional tools. The problem is rather the anchoring, as a door chain can be ripped out of its anchoring quite easily with a powerful tug. In this case, we, the safety engineering professionals from Amper Schl\u00fcsseldienst in Munich, urgently advise installing an armored bolt lock with a locking bar. This also allows the door to be opened a crack to see who is standing outside, but it is anchored into the masonry much more securely than a door chain. A door chain also does not replace a peephole. With a peephole, you can see who is at the door while it is still closed.<\/p>\n

We at Amper Schl\u00fcsseldienst in Munich are happy to advise you when it comes to the effective securing of your apartment or house. Give us a call!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
