Just signed up to this forum as I am in need of some expert know how I've moved into a rented property which has a wooden conservatory at the rear, unfortunately the french doors don't look at that secure. They have small square glass windows from top to bottom and its a simple job of just smashing them in to get to the basic Yale lock on the inside and 2 small bolts top/bottom with the bottom having some locks that require it's own key like the one to get into the outside gas meter which don't work.

I want to secure them better they are too thing to put a put in a traditional handle lock and key system, the doors don't flush well but can be closed if you close one side slightly before the other which isn't an issue. What kind of locks would be the best or whats the best ides to improve security.

The doors are like below maybe smaller glass windows..

If it is rented then I suggest that you get the landlord to do any works required or at the very least get it in writing that you can make changes
