Lights make a huge difference! Literally days after a flood light/camera was installed over my driveway, a person walked up my driveway at night, tried the handle on a car door, and got lit up by the flood light then ran.
Please do an extreme home makeover (home security edition). You would have your pick of sponsors and I'm sure have your own recommended brands/products.
That would be awesome!
When is HGTV picking up this series, john?
😂
"Total Security Makeover" -- Poet edition
TV who knows, they are Kent leaning. Guns and SD bad, watching porch building good!
Yo if HGTV did that I'd watch the hell out of that show lol.
@@dontfallyoumighthurtyourse4694 Networks tend to siphon creativity.
Anyone remember the “to catch a thief” series that used to be on tv? This reminds me of that but way better because there’s no bullshit.
Giving away our age!
Ya that’s pretty true lol
I loved that show and you are right. I’d love more videos like these!
USCCA partnered with a real pro. Thanks for this excellent series!
My uncle has 3 large dogs that he trained to bark(or smell don't know which) whenever they hear anybody within 200 yards of the property. Then, he and his 3 sons would go up to the second-floor windows with thier AR's to their "sniper nests". Their drills are so fun and cool to watch.
In my old house that had a sliding glass door, they just threw a landscaping brick through it and went to work. If the doors are too tough, there are plenty of windows that open with a rock.
Large dogs, cameras, and an alarm system hopefully make my present home more trouble then it is worth. Also lock up your guns when out of the house, so if you come home to a break in, they don't shoot you with your own gun.
Man, it would be really embarrassing to die by my own gun.
Can of Beans hahahaha
@ highpoints are good take away guns too, because of that big long log of a slide they tote. Grab, twist, GONE. Pay dear close attention
U
@@WinSomeLoseNone0 not much shame felt after death I would guess, so no worries there but I get it. And I think it happens more than you can imagine, or has been reported
Awesome video John. So many people when you say “what do you have for home defense?” They reply “I have a shotgun!” Or “I have an ar15!” But they have no alarm system, no reinforcements on their doors, no cameras, might even have unlocked doors. People ignore the simple home security things because guns are cool and stronger locks aren’t. But I’d much rather have someone try to kick in my kick proof door, hurt his foot and give up, then have to shoot someone.
My parents have terrible habits. Their doors are unlocked from 5am until bedtime whether they’re home or not. My dad will leave the garage door open after he gets back from somewhere and won’t close it until they lock up before bed. Our town used to be the kinda place where that wasn’t risky behavior but the crime is getting worse by the day
As a retired LEO, spot on brother!
Huge fan. The fun part of this series so far for me has been listening to John's suggestions and going down my check list of things I've already done and realizing I've already checked all of the boxes so far.
I BET I COULD INVADE YOUR HOME AND HOLD YOU HOSTAGE.
@@johnbrown2163 anyone determined enough to get into anything is going to get in all measures taken are simply steps at tipping the odds in your favor, nothing is guaranteed 100% full proof.
Plus like he said it's about looking like more trouble and effort then it's worth.
@@user-oh6xk1xu2r So all criminals are the same and we should trust that maybe the odds in our favor. That is funny and Stupid. I believe in Magnets and flamethrowers, Shotgun in walls under laser trigger, Even have Poisonous snakes running free. That just inside home.. Outside home would be automated 50.cal that shoots all motion.
@@user-oh6xk1xu2r If you worth it nothing will deter me.
I'm on your side now but I plan to eat people in SHTF. So I have put some thought into getting what I want. You unbruised and just kicking and squirming. Don't wanna bruise my dinner.
There used to be a tv show called To Catch A Thief. It was two ex thieves who would test out people's homes and security systems by breaking into them and showing the family's weaknesses in security. Then they'd hook them up with cool security systems and gadgets. It was always interesting to watch it through a actually thieves eyes and what to look out for
John, you better be good on this one, I am listening to BOTH commericals!
First off I know Veterans Day was yesterday but thank you for your service and all the sacrifices that you and your families have made. Now I would to say well done sir! I'm glad you're doing videos like this to help open our eyes a little more. The way you explain things make other and me as well stop and say I never thought of it that way. That's just one of the many reasons I support you and will always continue to do so. I look forward to taking some of your classes again. Thank you and keep it coming.
A simple trick for the doors is to replace the crappy short screws that come with the hinges and door latch plates with 3” screws. This way you’re screwing into solid framing lumber and not just the door jamb. Makes the door much harder to breach
10:55 My Grandpa told me that everything requires some combination of time and money and when you have enough of one, it is usually at the expense of the other. One of the single most useful pieces of wisdom ever bestowed upon me.
I’ve had Arlo cameras inside and out for three years. They can be scheduled so that the inside cameras go on at night only. All cameras can come on via geofencing criteria when you’re away. My cameras are motion triggered and set off a chime I have in the master bedroom so when we’re dead asleep and don’t hear the iPhone notification we will here the loud chime noise. I use dog bark as chime for inside cameras at night which sets off the real fluffy Maltese dog alarm. These cameras can be hooked up to trigger floods (my next upgrade). We have a conventional monitored alarm but I love the additional capabilities of the Arlo to peak in on the house when we’re away. All camera footage is stored on cloud free for 7 days, but there are paid plan for longer storage.. Great video series!
Stumbled upon WPS about 2 or 3 months ago and sure glad I did. I take a lot of precautions but John thinks of everything. Keep doing your thing, John.
Larson makes a full-view security glass door with a three lock mechanism called Secure Elegance. No bars and kick and blunt force resistant security glass. Just one more option for people with a front door with glass, just add this security door. I've seen some videos showing people trying to gain access through the glass and it was a major pain in the ass. Sure, crowbar would probably work to pry the door open eventually, but these are the toughest glass security doors I've seen.
Also, install a power kill switch on your garage door opener. When you get home, close the garage door and kill the power to the opener. You can install a regular wall switch to kill the power to the outlet the opener plugs into or you can go really cheap and easily install a corded remote switch... plugs into the outlet, plug the opener into the back of the switch, run cord to the wall and secure with double sided tape. Less than $10 and installs in a couple minutes.
I could listen to John talk all day, because I know every single word would be useful or funny!
or you Gay??
John Brown and if I was, what bearing would that have in this situation where you felt the need to say that? Time to grow up, bud. Focus your energies on something worthwhile, like I should be instead of replying to you. I value the information that John gives us all FOR FREE in bettering ourselves as Warrior Poets.
@@DyalToen Focus on less hiding and just being yourself. Like a true Warrior Poet.
I have watched all of you videos. This is a great nitch. No one does the self preservation videos anymore. Great job. You made me look at my home again. From the outside in. I haven't ever thought of it that way.
What I leave outside. Like a ladder or a key.
Great video!
how do these not have more views this is the coolest series
A cheap and easy fix for kick proofing your door is to replace the screws holding in the striking plate for the dead bolt with 2 1/2" or maybe 3" deck screws driving them all the way into the 2×4 behind it. Dont over tighten them. You'll warp the door casing. Might cost you 25 35 cents and maybe 10 minutes. May not be as strong as what John has, but they'll be kicking for so long that by the time they get in... they'll be staring at the business end of your gun.
You can totally tell John watches way to many musicals by the way he describes how he wants his flood lighting. Fabulous!
Multi layer security. A must.
It'd be nice to see a video after this series of someone who thinks there home is already secure. And you prove if it is or not.
Like the older "to catch a thief" show only way cooler and more realistic!
John - Sincerely appreciate this series. What an outstanding public service! You rock brother!
Thank you so much, to the couple, as well as John, and the USCCA for bringing this video to us!
Automatic Thumbs Up and so glad someone is talking about this!
I see so many people spending tons of $$ on their firearms, but with a cheap, developer-provided door, a couple 75 watt 'light" bulbs, and no alerts/alarm/cams!
Many bad guys react to light the same way roaches do lol.
Be smart and be safe friends.
I did this type of review for my Mom after my Stepdad died.
Please do more of these. Thank you!
And my Dad thought I'd become more paranoid by having a Navy Seal Survival Guide. John makes me feel better by putting out this video...thumbs up man! Watchin from Manitoba(crime capital city).
I have to say that filling my house with Nest cameras (pick your favorite brand) has helped me sleep. 5:32 As a light sleeper when I hear a bump, I can grab my phone, scan my cameras and close my eyes within minutes. It sure beats standing at the top of the steps for 30 minutes ready to roll.
The ONE thing I hate Hate HATE about this series, is having to wait on the 4th part of it. I don't want to forward any of it til I can send it all.
Great series. Thank you for putting it out.
I keep my exterior lights on all night. I've noticed my house is one of two houses on my street with lights on. That alone will help deter bad guys.
Commented on the last video, but gonna do it here again; this series is chock full of very useful well presented information to help you and your family stay safe. A lot of people think a gun by the nightstand is enough, but like John said, ideally you'd make them give up before you ever needed the gun.
I like that you mentioned dead bolts.
High security dead bolts are the way to go .. if you care who has your keys ..
Great advice mostly it will not be taken...
Would love to see a series for those of us who live in an apartment
Add hurricane-resistant windows (built similar to a car's windshield). Expensive, but helps deter break-ins AND serves to keep the house's exterior shell intact, thus keeping out wind and/or rain from storm/tornado/hurricane activity, depending on your locale.
Feels like an episode of "Fixer Upper" :)
New criminal technique out here in the Phoenix area. Bad guys turn on a hose bib and wait for you to open the door to go outside to see why the water's running.
Good to know, thanks. My daughter said she heard they put tape on the side view mirrors so your distracted taking it off in the parking lot. And then the sneak up on you. Mainly females.
Just a heads up, when you blur out something, make sure it’s done on all shots of the item being blurred. Great video as always ❤️
HampshireToday yup saw it too
Agreed!
It's especially important to block when you also show an overhead view of the property... it's pretty easy to locate with those two.
Don't forget that the flood lights need to be out of reach and protected bulbs! I have slow walked a motion light to unscrew a bulb partially, lose contact and no longer be a notification device. Cameras are key! Make sure they are night vision also. Easy to see infrared light at a distance with cheap devices ("night vision") to know its a no go zone.
You're doing some great work, John! This kind of content that your putting out there to the world is incredibly valuable to Every freedom loving American👍! Keep it up brother 🇺🇸🍻 CHEERS
Thank you for your comment and participation on our dearly beloved's Warrior Poet Society TH-cam channel and forum 😘
I have eight five hundred watt floods on motion activation. I put up an eight foot blackout fence on the sides and back mainly to keep deer out of my garden, but it's a hell of a deterrent. eight Blink cameras with four hidden, so if they disable one, there still being filmed. All alarmed windows with glass breakage, doors are kick proof and solid wood, no laminated junk doors here. And hidden guns everywhere.
Hi Sense. My name is Barbara. Please tell me where I can get a real wood door from. I am looking to upgrade my security in my house. Thank you.
I'm loving this series! I have had a lot of improvement in my personal life and training from watching these videos. Keep up the good work
Yay4That shirts haven't hit the site yet hopefully that changes soon.
Good points of the door reinforcement, John. But here's a not so hypothetical. I am a peace officer, volunteer firefighter/emt. We were called to do a welfare check on a gentleman who was going through a divorce. After calling his job, we found he did not show up for work or call in that day. I have a Stanley fubar for breaching and a great reason I have it is so I can pop a door without having to replace a door, frame or window. Long story short, we hammered off the door knob and broke the door window because he had a 2x4 brace at the bottom of the door. This was very good security, but took a long time for us to gain entry to find he was suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning. Security is good, but what keeps the bad guys out, keeps the good guys out as well. Check out products like Knox box or if you have a neighbor that's home all the time (and trust them), give them a key to your residence.

Something we don't always think about
Thanks for sharing
The new home improvement show.
OBoy, I think you got something here.
Very good job.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL
😇✌🤗.
the best channel on the web period
You want to make your doors more secure? Use two-inch wood screws in the bolt plates on your knob and dead bolt and at least one two-inch screw in each hinge. There you go, greatly increased security for like $5.
I have a small critique. Early in the video, when the couple's front porch is being displayed, the markings identifying their street and house number is blurred out - great. But unfortunately later, at 9:49 this information is not blurred out, and is easily read. I worry about this couple's privacy because of this information being shared online. Just my opinion, that if the trouble was done to blur it out in the earlier part of the video, perhaps it wasn't intended to be revealed later. GREAT video content by the way! Thank you!
That time when you live in Brazil, and all homes have a big wall, with eletricfence ou spikes, all windows have iron bars and all doors have 3 locks
Dogs make good early warning. Big dogs make great a deterrent. For a complete home defense, you should include dogs. They don't have to be big dogs. Small dogs can warn you and buy you time. Protection breeds would be the best.
Get a big dog! One of the best criminal deterrent and early warning systems you can get.
I saw a TV investigative thing that tested people’s dogs. The little ones were better than bigger ones like labs. So some large dogs are good but not all. The important thing is their superior ability to detect an intruder. If you get the early warning then you can spring your home defense robot from its silo.
A good burglar brings steak for the dogs.
We have a house pig, she’s just as scary as any dog 😂 she may make an appearance in the last episode.
@@mary-kathrynnourse7697 lol I've been attacked by a pot belly. It's an ... Interesting experience and very unnerving.
Heads on stakes seem to be a pretty good deterrent here in the Outback. The Live Fire Range sign is a good added backup.
Some excellent advice in this series. Waiting on Part 4... I absolutely LOVE your passion, John. Keep it up. It's contagious.
Helpful hint: If you do have a security system use a sign from a competitor. If you let the bad guys know what system you really have you are advertising which one they need to hack. Specifically if you have cameras tied into the same system. They can then hack the feeds and get a live feed of who's home and where you are. The best defense is in the details.
Also having a dog with a loud bark. Most burglars say they won’t rob those houses because it draws attention when they’re barking loudly, and they can serve as an additional early warning system.
"Get out of my house!! Because I identify as an A-10 Warthog!!!" **running around the area saying "BRRRRRT!! BRRRRT!!!"** Crooks walk away thinking "This guy is nuts".
It practically makes me swoon to visit someone's home and see how vulnerable it is. IMO a well-secured home is even more important than having a gun in it...although having a gun and knowing how to use it is an excellent thing too.
Awesome video and great ideas, thanks as always for sharing with us common folk.
Id pay top dollar to watch this show
Excellent idea for a video series! I hope you will cover those kick plates for the doors. I'm not familiar with them. We are using double keyed deadbolts and door chains for now...when I can get my wife to use them.
My wife needs a course on this. I can also use a brush up. Thanks for the series, John!
Great advice. God bless from Kalgoorlie, Australia. :)
I've spent a lot of years in home security, CCTV, and access control. The first people a victim calls after the authorities is us. I can tell you from experience that preventing a break-in is far better than having evidence with cameras or an alarm. Those are certainly nice to have, but I've sold many 3M security film window treatments and DoorArmor(tm) systems to people after explaining that prevention and deterrence is better than a siren going off.
Take care, and good work!

I love my NightLocks! Well worth the money!
Love learning from you John
Private residences as sometimes very difficult defensible positions definitely bugs me and the security scenarios play into how I look at houses now. I especially love your philosophy at the end of making sure to tackle each security aspect/component one at a time to completion rather than getting overwhelmed (and thus doing nothing) by trying to throw everything together at once on a budget.
Hey John, could you do a vid about window security, one other question is how to carry as a motorcyclist. Thanks so much and God bless you and your lovely family!
This would be a great t.v show!! He gets so excited about all this, it gets me excited! Love this guy!
Great series
Thank you 👍.
It's helpful to leave your keys in your car and try to get in your house. Picture sub zero weather, so you gotta get in. I found out my weak points when I locked the keys in my house lol. It was cold and dark.
If you have doors that open inward (which you shouldn't) you can just drill some holes in a 4x4 and the floor so they will line up and drop in a couple nice landscaping spikes no one is kicking in your door (I grew up in the hood)
The problem I see with that, is that most doors that open outward have hinges on the outside, which means all you need is a Phillips head screwdriver and a hammer, or something to hit the screwdriver with, to take out the hinges and take the door off and get in. I guess a door with inside hinges that opens outward would be ideal, but that doesn't physically work very well. Just some food for thought.
@@kravjitssig7291 From what I have dealt with in my life most door open inward with hinges on the inside of the door
Yes, that is right, most doors open inward with hinges on the inside, which keeps an intruder from having access to the hinges. Maybe I didn't say it clearly before, but I was saying doors that open outward have hinges on the outside, which makes them easy to break in by removing the hinge pins and taking the door off.
I love these, can't ever get enough of them!
"It takes a thief!"
GREYMAN did one too.
As some others have said, the address isn't blurred out after the intro.
The best layout for defense is the ability to step outside yourself and turn on a criminal mind to see your weak areas.
Great series but it's been awhile since you made a 'poety' mindset/philosophy video.
I love your videos John. Try not to put the client's address in the video next time LOL
A lot of windows always bothers me. Don’t know why some people insist on having a front door made almost entirely out of glass or 27 windows in the living room alone etc.
It just looks cool, expensive, and makes them feel rich.
My house came with them. Dozens of windows, a couple sliding doors. Completely indefensible if I'm being attacked by 100 ninjas.
Windows just let the would-be assailant see all your dead animal trophies, and consider whether they wish to join them.
Here in South-Africa those are things that you MUST have!!Farmers are getting killed here so easily just by not having a very good security system or measures in place..
I do this type of work for a living & have all this crap in my house and your 100% correct it’s useless junk if not used. Honestly I don’t use 90% of it. Cause my wife just neglects to do it. And thinks it’s not needed 🤦♂️
Great video!
I always react to the flimsy doors opening inwards, here in Sweden our front doors open outwards and they are at least in my case with a safety door a lot more sturdy.
Can the hinge pins be removed from the outside? If so, the entire door can be removed
hey just to let you know if you didnt already.. the blurr didnt cover the address at all on the house..
5:25 “wrap your hell err I mean house” 😂 After he’s done that place will be hell for intruders
Love you Jon
thanks for your great videos....i love them! greats vom Austria
Love these videos John!
I want to take your advice and apply it my home. Annnnd I know what the lighting scenario looks like but I’d like to make a video to show what you meant.
Thanks for the tips!
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more - we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.” Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago, 1974
Rat Route I got to tell you parts of that absolutely terrified me.
@@michaelnaven213 Yeah, no way that could happen....................here.
Rat Route Anything is possible but America does breed individuals that are independently minded and we do read and are better informed.
He (and they) had the convenient excuse of ignorance. We do not. We know well what we flirt with in our own land. Or we should.
Dogs & Guinea Fowl are some of the best 1st alarms you can have.Even when you secure ones home,you need an Escape route as well.Being trapped in is worse if fire starts.
That house looks to not be easily seen from the roads or highway.If so..If its not seen its usually not robbed.
Robbers covet what they see.
Dang that house was wide open for anyone.Even kids or mischevious teenagers.
you have educated them and thats all you can do.Good Goob..Good Video.
Replace standard deadbolt screws with 3.5 inch wood screws.They kick; unpleasant surprize.
Read Helter Skelter back in HS. First 92 pages scares you to death. I still assume the Manson family is coming up the driveway, every day. Or Ramirez. Every door and window is always locked and alarmed at night, and all day every day EDC is the norm, even inside. Backups abound. ASP viewers take precautionary measures most often. And this is pretty hard to watch, since these folks have volunteered to be the guinea pigs, but they'll be glad they did.
Love this series brother!! Pumped!!!
Hey, you guys forgot to blur their address sign at some parts of the video. You should probably fix that.
Awesome video, so informative 👍🏻
Hey, take a look at some of my perimeter sensor videos from Optex, specifically the Fitlink and WXI-RAM. They specifically address perimeter protection and notification.
Good stuff. 👍
I just realized that this series isn't getting many views in comparison to all the other videos on the channel. I don't get why, these are fantastic videos.
