Doing Some Gardening Helped Me Secure My Storage Shed

I love doing yard work, gardening, and general outdoor cleanup and maintenance around my yard during the good-weather months. It occurred to me that I have a lot invested in the various tools of the trade, and that's when I got the idea to shore up the security of my tool shed.

I got looking around at all my various shovels, rakes, saws, pruners, hand tools, lawnmower, and tiller and realized I'd be mighty unhappy if I came out one day to discover they'd all been stolen. I actually stopped what I was doing right then and went to my local hardware store. I wound up purchasing a couple of different kinds of locks and locking mechanisms and went to work.

I installed top and bottom sliding locks, which help to keep the secondary door solid and in place. On the primary door I was able to install a commercial grade deadbolt lock, complete with case hardened steel. Instantly, I felt better, like my gear was really safe and secure. Don't know why it took me so many years to do this, but it did.

My next step is to see if I can extend my monitored ADT home security system to my shed. The way I look at it, I don't think I can ever be too protective when it comes to my house, my belongings, and my family. How about you?
