Locking the LD February 16, 2014, 02:12:24 pm Yahoo Message Number: 145050I am looking for way to secure the driver and passenger doors in such a way that even if someone managed to break in they would not be able to open the doors to exit or it would take some work to do so.Same for the coach side door. I assume that a double cylinder deadbolt would do that but would you also need to reinforce the frame as well and how would you do so?Suggestions?Jim C
Re: Locking the LD Reply #1 – February 16, 2014, 03:34:20 pm Yahoo Message Number: 145052Hello Jim; Keeping people from using the cab doors is easy enough. The arm rests attached to each door have a hole in the center. Take a piece of light chain or cable with a loop on each end. Thread it through the holes and secure with a pad lock. Now a thief will need a bolt cutter, hack saw or whatever. Keep the key handy in case you need to make an emergency exit this way. Enjoy your blog.Take care; ed

I will keep that up unless some better idea comes along.By the way, haven't you stripped of your LD privileges yet Jim C
