I fitted these to our steel up-and-over doors, you can drill the wood at the side and glue in the supplied tubes to fit them but I chose the hard way and put them into concrete floor with epoxy LOL

for a pair of hinged wooden doors try one of these locking bars.

I can understand that having a door guard/post/thingie may look ugly, and some will say it makes it look like you have something precious inside, but to a casual thief it's hassle and they're more likely to look next door instead. Low life opportunists with a screwdriver in their pocket are the most likely to cause you grief so making them look elsewhere is well worth it.

The other thing to bear in mind is keeping things covered and hidden. We get suspicious vans and recovery trucks down our road every day with the passenger looking very carefully into every garden and open garage door as they slowly drive by. Keep your bike out of sight, under a sheet or cover too to disguise the shape from snoopers.

Someone a few doors down has the defender on and it doesnt look too bad but im not sure on them but its true what your saying about them just looking elsewhere. Yeah i always keep a cover over my bike even in the garage may be over the top but better safe than sorry
