fit a floor anchor, or a wall anchor depending on space/shape

Also I have a xenex disc lock that's bright yellow and has an alarm (it's pretty damn loud)

If someone gets through the door and has to tackle an alarmed disc lock and a grounded chain, it's just not worth the effort

Never had an alarmed disclok before but always wondered, how do you get them off without setting the alarm off? Or does it go off for a few seconds whilst getting the key in?

after it moves significantly you get 10-15 seconds to unlock it. Same concept as a house alarm

When I stay in hotels I put my bike as close to my room window as convenient/possible. Would easily wake me up (and the rest of the hotel) if someone started tampering.

It's fine as long as it's not crumbling or cracked - don't snap bits off to grind down and snort it. Use polyfilla for that.

Eeeesh.. ask leedsmatt or roberrrt or specialmoan, they're all building types, I know it's nasty stuff but have been told in the past if my roof isn't crumbling or cracked then it's ok, just don't make a point of breathing heavily near it if it's started to deteriorate.

Whack some gaffa tape on it
