WARNING! You Should Always Remove The Screws From Your Apartment Door Before Moving In. Here's Why...

By Timfly

Texas realtor Mariana Harrison shared one piece of advice her father gave her years ago and it is paying off big time.

She writes a Facebook post that has gone viral:

"My dad gave me this advice a long time ago when I moved into my first apartment. He even came out and changed the screws for me as soon as I moved in. Someone else recently posted about it and I thought I would share!
A good home security tip that you may have never thought about.... Most contractors install the plates with the supplied screws which are only a half inch long and come out with one kick by a burglar. He installed 4 inch screws in their place that go through the door frame and into the framing of the house. They can kick for a long time before they get tired! You can see in the picture the screw in his hand is the screw supplied with the door hardware. Making a burglar make a bunch of noise and be foiled in their initial plan can not only give you time to arm yourself but they will most likely move on to an easier target."

Go check your doors when you’ve got some time this weekend. This is an easy fix and could protect your property and keep your family safe from danger.
