He decides in the time it takes to walk past.

The people who actually break into houses have been asked what turns them away, and it was not the brand of anybody's lock, but other people being close by, no clean way back out, and visible signs the place was being paid attention to. Not one of those comes in a box.

Researchers at UNC Charlotte put questions to 422 people convicted of burglary. Most were not planning it; they decided on the spot, from the street. What put them off was not the hardware, it was the sense that someone was paying attention. PENDING — link to the study (source verified: UNC Charlotte, Dec 2012). It is the one statistic on the page, and it holds up if you go and check it.


Go and check two things. They're free.

Ninety seconds, no tools. Most front doors have one of these two faults, neither shows from the couch, and a camera pointed at the door knows about neither.

Check one

[ Sample check title ]

PENDING: product. One real, complete free check written out in full, with what to do if you find it. Proof the rest is worth paying for.

Check two

[ Sample check title ]

PENDING: product. Second real free check, in full.

Want both checks written out?

A one-page door audit, the two checks in full, by email. Free, and it's the one thing here that keeps working even if the channel goes quiet.

PENDING: email service + form endpoint


Most of it gets spent in the wrong order.

Camera before the door

A lens that records the break-in you could have prevented at the frame.

A contract before a bolt

A monthly bill before the one-time fix that costs less than lunch.

Gadgets before the habit

The thing you buy instead of the thing you do every night for free.

The source next to every line.

This is what the departments publish, the federal crime numbers, and the studies of the people who have actually done it, gathered into one place, put in order, with the source printed next to each line. The value isn't a name on the cover; it's that someone finally sat down, pulled it together, and told you exactly where each piece came from so you can go and check it.

Three manuals. The things nobody was going to write down.

Countable, numbered, and in the order I'd do them.

PENDING: product. The real table of contents: each volume's modules and the count of checks in each. Sample topics below show the layout only.

Volume I

What the street can read about you · light, sound, and the cheap layer · bins, packages, and routine · the neighbours as infrastructure.

Volume II

Choosing the room and testing it at night · what to say, in full · the review that never quite finishes.

It comes down to a door, a habit, and the right order.

Sourced, numbered, and honest about where it came from.

Honest answers.

How do I know this isn't just AI filler?

Every item names the source it came from, dated, so you can check it yourself. A page written by a machine scraping the internet doesn't do that, because the internet is where the wrong answers live. If a line doesn't carry a source, it isn't in the book.

Do I need to be handy?

Most of this is checking and habit, not building. The few things that need a screwdriver are marked, with what to do if you'd rather not.

I rent, or I'm in an apartment.

A whole volume is written for that: reversible, nothing that leaves a mark. What needs to be owned is marked, so you never pay for a chapter you can't use.

What if I already know this?

Then the guarantee is yours to use. What most people don't have is the same list in order, numbered, with a source beside each line to check.

Is it paper or a download?

PENDING: confirm format (download / print / both)

Will it go out of date?

Doors and the people who test them don't change quickly, and every source is dated, so you can always go back and check it still holds.
