Any new security strategies to deal with theft?

With regards to your garage door: Cut the little red knob off of the little red rope. It is the emergency manual garage door opener. With a simple pry tool and a coathanger thieves can get your garage door opened in seconds. They pry the top of the door open just enough to get the hanger around the red knob and can pull the door open with ease.

huh, really? that lil rope got caught on my roof rack...never put back..
