[QUOTE="Tiapet, post: 544299, member: 455"] We have had no luck with locks that were screwed in and definitely NOT with glued in types (super easy to pull off). They would find things to unscrew the other kind. We have had to resort to chain and a padlock type lock. You wind the chain around the door handles of the doors. We've have done it to tranditional style (top freezer bottom frig) and french door (the best and easier one). You can cut the chain links which we bought from lowes/home depot that are plastic covered so it won't scratch the frig. The key to it is to make sure the chain is tight enough that is is pretty hard to close each end together. Just recently with mr busy breaking into doors to garage and bedrooms that have locks by prying them open he got into garage and found bolt cutters and cut chain on frig. Easy fix as we had more chain! ;) As to the doors he broke into, a little more complicated. We had to go out and buy non pryable door stripping and stuff that you can buy to make sure your house is not able to break into (meant for entryway doors but can be used for interior doors too with a little know how). We've had to be REALLY creative with all this breaking into things and locks! We have a double doored upright closet in the kitchen that we have to store food in (and about to buy another one as well) and we have hasps and locks on that too because the food stealing issue is so bad. To many it sounds horrible to have to lock up most all the food in your house but they would not understand that if you don't you could loose a weeks worth of food in almost 24 hours if you didn't and it's not because you don't feed them, it's because they can't stop eating (well in ms queens sake and mr busy it's a food allergy causing him to want things he can't have).
