This also happens in the US if the delivery person feels the package is not secure(or because signature confirmation is needed) they will leave a note and you can pick it up at the depot. But many people would rather avoid the inconvenience of picking it up and have the package left on the door because package theft is relatively rare. If you live in an area where package theft is a problem you probably live in an apartment building with a secure space for packages, or you can have packages delivered to your work, or delivered straight to the post office to pick up.
