Title: break ins
Post by: sashbash on May 23, 2013, 18:19:36 PM
Just to advise people, friends of ours were broken into on Tuesday night, whilst they were out for the evening. Yes they have bars and grills on doors and windows but they jemmied the metal open. Only thing taken was a large safe that was upstairs!!! Spoke to my friend today and he has been told by the Jardarma that Hisaronu is experiencing at least 3 break ins per day. So please be extra careful about locking up.

Two years ago Attila the locksmith from Fethiye demonstrated to me that he could open my locked security grills in just the time it took me to turn through 360 degrees and all he had in his hands was a flat bladed screwdriver. I was facing the locked grills and he was stood next to me, he instructed me to turn around slowly (but it could only have taken me five seconds or so) and when I came around full circle the grills were both open and Atilla was stood there with a big grin on his face.  He told me that unless the static grill (the one without the lock) is securely bolted at the top and bottom then it's childs play to get them open with a screwdriver if you know where and how to apply pressure.

Needless to say that all my security grills are now securely bolted at the top and bottom with the bolts going into holes drilled in the concrete lintel and the tiled terrace floor and with padlocks preventing the bolts being dropped. This type of bolt is readily available at the Yapi Market.
