I went to check on my sisters apartment in Ovacik yesterday to unfortunately find that her terrace door had been forced open by intruders. Although it would seem that little force was actually required. The door bowed so much when a screw driver was leaverd between it and the frame that the locks just popped from the frame. Hubby fitted some deadlocks to secure the place, and we did make other owners on the site aware of the problem as i'm sure one of them will be next.
If buying new windows and doors check the strength of the materials...does it bow easily. Can the glass be taken out easily by removing the rubber seal? Can their hinges be removed from the outside? All these have been methods used by intruders in this area.
Get dead locks fitted. They are a cheap addition, and could save on a lot of grief.
Thankfully nothing was taken from my sisters apartment, but it was a horrible, sickening thing to find.
