I've thought about this service and what I could do moving forward for better security. A front door airlock came to mind; front Amazon Keyed door that leads to an alcove that is in front of another locked door. Big enough for packages and maybe a couple adults.
Unsure if the effort would be worth it however. Just a thought game.
- bjorgen 9y agoSomething that's starting to happen in apartment construction is the inclusion of these "airlock" style rooms at the front of the apartment. That way you can get your packages delivered securely and still have your home secure.
- protomyth 9y ago> A front door airlock came to mind Some of the better houses in the north have a mudroom between the outer door and the inner door. Helps a whole lot in winter and during the rainy muddy times. Agree it would probably work well with this type of thing for deliveries.
- jcl 9y agoAs far as security goes, a problem with "airlocks" is similar to a problem with attached garages: It's easier to get into them than directly into the house, and once you are in them, they can provide cover for a more concerted effort to get into the house. An Amazon-Key-like system may mitigate the risk, of course, assuming that the users of the app are properly vetted and that attackers are deterred by cameras.
