JoyfulMama Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 We will be moving into an apartment complex, and my very loving and protective brother has asked me to think about buying one of these security bars. Is he being overly protective, or is it a good idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dana Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Love 'em! There was one morning when we lived in our apartment that maintenance was coming in (pest control). I was in bed asleep... not attired for visitors. Since it was mid-day, they did a quick knock and started to open the door with the pass key. Luckily, we had the door-jamb on and they weren't able to get in. I was able to holler at them to come back in 10-15 min and I was able to get dressed. I wouldn't get one with an alarm, but I was really glad to have had it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hannah C. Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Our apartment complex has deadbolts which can't be unlocked from the outside. If your apartment complex doesn't have them, I might look into something like this. I've had people from the complex start coming in with a key before.

Pink Fairy Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Is it a pretty safe place? Of the three different apartments we've lived in, we definitely could have used it in one. The other two it wasn't necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
