i'm not keen on heights so my vote would be to use my stubby screwdriver to undo the screws holding their windout window winder to the opening light and just climb in. I'm staggered at the number of people who go out leaving their windows open 4 inches. And then there are the unsecured oudoor powerpoints to plug your tools into and either just cut the lock out or go up through the floor ( no carpets to hinder you in lots of houses ).

Or just put on your carpenters overalls, stick a pencil behind your ear and carry your tool caddy with you and a tape measure. Bit of ostenatious measuring up before you break in and the neighbours will probably come over and ask if you're interested in doing some work for them too rather than call the police!!!

There are so many people having work done on their houses round our way that the neighbours wouldn't think anything of any more banging or cutting (

Actually if you want to be really brazen about it just turn up with a couple of mates and a removal van and take the lot! This happened to neighbours of friends of ours in Sydney about 30 years ago and apparently is not uncommon.:mad:

Thats the way they do it round here.

Drive up & drag it away.
the small time skum drive a station wagon into the carport kick in the back door & load up.
The more serious ones use a pantec.

We had laminated glass placed in the bottom panels of all of our windows when we renovated many years ago.

Not only is it safer for occupants of the house, it also protects the window from accidental breakages. There were a couple of spots where a mower had thrown up some stones and chipped the window - i'm pretty sure it would have broken normal glass.
