We don't want to freak people out and we don't want them to get hurt either. I think a fence would be more attention grabbing to them and they might forget about the bottles and try to lean on the wall or something. It is a no win situation either way. If we go with the fence though, we have decided that doing it on our house would be enough.<BR/><BR/>When the weather clears, I take a run over to Comex and try to find the house you mean. A little apprehensive about aluminum. The last burlgars used a crowbar to bend the aluminum window frame on the cabana. When we were on vacation this summer, the burglar(s) also pried open and totally ruined our back screen door, which is also aluminum. I don't have much faith in its' strength.Islagringohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18181198510287530636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35550446.post-51776622742932337542007-10-27T21:51:00.000-05:002007-10-27T21:51:00.000-05:00Have you thought about putting broken bottles int...Have you thought about putting broken bottles into the cement on top of your walls....I've seen a few properties on the island with that kind of security system. It seems like quite a good deterrent It's pretty cheap and you're helping the environment by recycling your Sol bottles. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35550446.post-29189888056072964352007-10-27T12:43:00.000-05:002007-10-27T12:43:00.000-05:00Iron bars can last several years if you wire brush...Iron bars can last several years if you wire brush them and repaint with rust resistant paint about every 6 months. Also bars can be made with aluminum. There is a house near Comex that has them. chk it out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
