If you have/have had a door into your house from your garage do you lock the door?[Poll]
Re: Poll - Lock doors
My answer is something else... SOMETIMES...
I would say it's good practice to lock all the time... but I use that door only to put garbage/recycle in the bins in the garage, and it's a pain in the butt to unlock it when my hands are full, so I leave it unlocked. But DH locks it. If we are going on vacation I definitely lock it.
Did you watch Criminal Minds last night....this was how the murderer got into the houses!!
I voted only when we're not home...WE don't have a door connecting to the inside - ours opens to the veranda right by our front door. But my parents have a inside one and like AMC1616 said only get in by the garage door opener, which are in the cars - in the garage. Vacation time everything gets locked & sliding doors/windows get a 'blocker' put in place.
like some of the others have said, you can't get into our garage without the code. When we are home and awake, it's unlocked. But when we go to bed, we always lock it.
You can easily hear the garage door when it opens, so I hear it during the day when DH comes home for lunch and after work, so I'd be aware if someone was in the garage.
Scary episode of CM though!
My parents have one and it is ALWAYS locked. There are people who can get in your garage and go through the door. It's a safe habit and one I am definitely used too.
