get a dog beside a loud and aggressive sounding bark. my friend worked for ADT once and she told me they have studies that showed that thieves be more more scared of dogs than of indemnity systems. ;0
OK, first, if the police did nought, you have to jump up the chain of command. Ask to speak to a supervisor. They entail to do something. If they won't help, beckon the local newspaper and ask to speak to a reporter and complain.
For the door, bring back a good deadbolt and install it yourself: it's not firm. You can get something that fits around the deadbolt to reinforce the door so it can't be kicked contained by. You can also get a doorbell that sounds approaching a barking dog: thieve hate dogs. You can also borrow a dog for a week to consistency safer. Leave a dog bowl and accessories outside so those think you get a dog. You can put a piece of wood in sliding cup windows so they can't be popped up and out of the track, and you can put for a moment device in a glass track so it can't be forced open. Go to the hardware store and ask. Also, if they get your mother's social security card, phone up all the focal credit companies (experion, equifax, etc.) and ask that a hold be put on any applications for her number -- explain what happened. Also telephone social security itself -- you can win the number from you congressman's office. She might be a target of someone trying to use her number.
Answers: If you hold a door, you most likely hold tubular locksets on your doors. This is what you want in optional extra to a deadbolt. If you have a full-mortise lockset on your door, it make you door VERY easy to break into. THere is one and only 3/8" of wood left around the lockset, you can literally rest your foot on the door, and push, and the door will splinter apart, right at the lock. As for your window, I don't know what type they are, so you should find out what style/type they are, and go to a small, private cup or window shop and ask them. If you shift to Home Depot or Lowe's, you might end up discussion to some high arts school kid that is individual there to report to you where screwdrivers are located. As for a cheap, reliable payment system, you can get a outdoor floodlight that have a motion sensor on it, and splice into the wiring and lead in a incredibly loud siren or horn. Place the unit surrounded by your house pointing at the various points of entry, and if anyone enter, they will be startled by a very loud siren and bright lights, they will not stick around! Hook up the sensor to a switch that you turn on when you head off the house, and off when you are home. You can purchase these items at a hardware store for smaller amount than $50, and have an electrician telecommunication it for another $50. It will work fabulously for years to come, just brand sure if it is in a dusty environment to verbs off the sensor every once within a while. It's cheaper than a ADT type security system next to monthly fees, and cheaper, cleaner, and years less work than a dog. I use this type of motion sensor set-up surrounded by my woodworking shop, and it scares the heck out of me whenever I forget to turn it sour and walk surrounded by. That's another thing, you want to put the switch surrounded by a place that you can get to without delay upon entering your house, so that you don't trigger it everytime you come home, but not to obvious that a burglar might see it and turn it rotten. So you would want the sensor above your door for example, so that someone would actually own to walk a step or two into the home.
