Re: Residence entered through locked patio door. Video game system and laptop computer stolen. - That is the problem with sliding doors, the factory latches don't prevent the door panels from being lifted out and over the tracks. Our area has had a rash of these type of break-ins so I had a guy from this company install an after market lock that works great. You can buy them on his website too http://www.safeslider.com frank - brandtastic
