whats my door worth?

[VeNT]

Or better yet, a steel door with wooden fascia. Anyone trying to kick in a good steel door is more likely to break their foot than the door.

or coat it in that powder that explodes when you kick it

 

[Bracco]

about £450 fitted round this way, may well be more elsewhere.

That's around the same I was quoted recently, so I doubt they get much cheaper.

house insurance may have a req on who does the work too, thus limiting the options on quotes

So you end up with a dead burglar/vandal, and a pile of rubble where your home used to be? Not sure that counts as a result, VeNT.

I think I'll settle for breaking the burglar's foot with my door. Less paperwork.

maybe some some of pressure sensor in the door so when kicked a trap door opens to THE SCORPION PIT!

thus eliminating the need for paperwork.

Put a large button outside your house like this

that game was good fun.

I have to head to B&Q shortly but I would think you could fit the door yourself and would be looking at about £100, it is not the most expensive or robust looking of doors.

By way of comparison internal doors are £12 and up, fire doors start at around £40.

I'll have a gander in B&Q.

I'm not surprised it broke, it's just plastic and polystyrene.

 

[Clarkey]

i'd be wanting a better door than that mate, it looks crap.

Say goodbye to your deposit; and you have any sense, say goodbye to the **** who did it too.

 

[Visage]

Replace it with liquid metal. No knives or stabbing objects.

 

[pyro]

yeh someone (housemate) hasnt got a key so gave it a thrashing when drunk

Awsome

 

[Mark A]

The new door will have a plywood core, they have to by law now so that its harder to kick in than the foam ones.

[Aod]

don't really see the sense in have a door with the internals being made out of foam.

Fire risk and easy to break through.

<Edit: eep, not foam, polystyrene. my mistake>

 

[Alasdair]

I'd fill it with camel spiders if it was my house

 

[Sputnik II]

If the frame is still ok, why not just put a new panel in it. Much cheaper and easier than fitting a complete new door frame.

 

[red11]

By law it might be that they all have to pay but I'd be getting my share of it from the pillock who kicked it in.

Definitely, there's no way I would be paying to fix or replace a door that a housemate kicked in.

we said goodbye to that ages ago.

holes in all doors, mates door has fallen off (and been hung back on) i tried to tactically de-ice the fridge with a knife, then hit a pipe and it sprayed me in the face. (thread on the outside fridge a while ago) and a few handles have been snapped off windows

a note on the fridge thats outside. It hasnt been moved so the milk may look a 'nice' darker shape of purple now. dread to think what the turkey breasts look like around 8months and counting
