Just thought I would recount our experience when we were locked and our contractor who happened to be working on our enclosed lanai, just lifted the locked sliding door out of the track and got us in. After that my husband tried it and was able to lift it so needless to say, we put in a bar in the bottom track to hold the door in place so it couldn't be moved. It was scary to realize how easy it was to get in through the sliders even when they were locked. We don't feel an alarm system is necessary, but we do lock our doors when we leave and at night. I saw a bar that goes across the sliding door but it looked too obtrusive to the view for me so we opted for a good thick stop stick. We are in a CYV so our great neighbours are always on the lookout for unusual behaviour around the 'hood.
