Darren

What would you consider is ok if someone was to knock your door.

Anybody who knocks on my door after dark probably wouldn't get that friendly a reception.

We have a lot of door callers here in Holland I have no door knocker now and I have disabled the bell....seems to have done the trick.... ;D

Personally I do not like door callers...my view is if I wanted a product I would go find it....

Cheers
Dave.
