Modern burglars count on one thing: your silence.
One flimsy sheet of aluminum foil can shatter it.

it offers quick peace of mind
with no tools and no permission required.
In a world obsessed with high-tech security, this humble strip
of foil restores something
priceless: the feeling that you’re not
completely in the dark
about who has tested your door.
