Don't forget extra long and thick strike plates to put on your door jamb so the door can't be kicked in, 3-inch long screws, plus quality deadbolts.

And motion lights. There are many options that are appropriate for apartments that only require small screws to mount and use batteries or solar power.

r/homedefense has some good threads on securing your residence as well as advice on home security systems.

I was also considering writing a post on how to select a martial arts school, if there's any interest in that.

Great info! I recently took a CCW class and the instructor mentioned that the gel form of mace/pepper spray is better because it will stick to the attacker and won’t accidentally get on you. Also it works 15+ feet away!

'kick him in the balls' my mum used to say 😂

My background check was just cleared for my handgun permit. The HVM I'm dating said he'd take me to purchase one and to the range. That's so hot. lol

I love my Ring doorbell - it is a great deterrent to someone. It also means I never have to answer the door to a stranger.

Love this. However, be careful with Damsel In Defense. They’re a MLM.
