Gregory-
Thanks. Checking with Laka if they’d count that as making a garage secure…

My only issue with a lot of those is if you take a light golfing swing at them with a sledgehammer they come straight out the ground. The worst ones you can just put a crowbar under and lift them out.
My preference for up and over doors if you can fit them is a pair of meaty door bolts (ie 20-25mm thick bolts) and two different padlocks with the biggest tight fitting concealed shackles that will fit through the holes. The bolts want to be big enough that they’ll take enough time to get through with a grinder for it to be a pain in the arse, tight-fitting concealed shackles so they can’t be cropped off the bolts, and two different padlocks so that there are two different types of lock to have to pick or two different shapes of padlock to have to mechanically attack.

Apologies for the cross-post from the bike storage thread, but does anyone have any tips for security for storing bikes in a old lock-up style garage in London? It has an old up-and-over door. Am mulling adding some reinforcements to the door or even replacing it with something sturdier (although have to negotiate that with neighbours), and either getting Sheffield stands sunk into the cement floor for security or putting something less secure but more elegant up on the wall to store the bikes vertically.
