Typical American living room...

C'mon, everyone knows that's far too small to be an American living room. Besides, we only keep our beautiful antique guns and family heirlooms in the living room. What you are looking at is the pantry. We eat at McDonalds so our pantries can be put to more useful purposes! The actual armory for real civil unrest is in the basement!

Have you never been to America before? ;)

It really is very simple, they use an electric angle grinder or electric Stihl saw, or, if they pull it out from the bottom then each section of the shutter door just slides out, how do I know, as a retailer I have seen the result of both of the aforementioned methods.
Best you can do is slow them down, something along these lines inside garage would cover that need along with alarm system. Secura Bike Lockers, Los Angeles, CA. Available nationwide.

Good to hear from someone with experience in the field. Hopefully some of these noisy break-ins would be thwarted by nosy neighbors.

I'm a little surprised by the lax security measures y'all employ.
I like your thinking. My wife and kids have a lackadaisical attitude to security and think it'll never happen to them. On the other hand I'm more akin to Monty Pythons 'Little old lady snoopers' :)

a local guy...who you could describe as a "good ol boy" , guards his shed with a trip wire attached via pulleys to a shotgun loaded with a blank cartridge. He reckons an intruder would be rendered deaf and shocked....and he ( the good ol boy) would be alerted by the noise...........he has another shotgun!! :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
Brilliant. An AK47 on auto, firing blanks, would be better still.

I used to be really worried about theft, but I finally solved the problem for good. I installed a motorized roof on my shed. When the security alarm detects unauthorized entry, the roof rolls back and two large weather balloons inflate lifting my precious e-MTB safely into the sky. The security alarm sends an alert to my phone so I can track my e-MTB with the GPS tracker built-in to the down tube.

Imagine the look on the thieves faces when they see my precious e-MTB zoom out of reach right in front of their eyes! As they are watching this spectacle with disbelief, two orange paint bombs are activated, coating them in orange paint so they can be quickly identified and apprehended by authorities. ;)

haha, it's almost like the movie "home alone".

however, you have to build some kind of pitfall where the thieves can fall into a hole with tar 😃🤣.
