No closed doors.

Yes, all blinds and curtains get pulled when it gets dark outside.

Doors open , shades down.

No, no and yes. Even living with GSD's.

Take a drive or walk by your place some night, light on, blinds/drapes open and look at it as though a creeper would. Then decide

Yes, No, No! I have to close the bedroom door because my cat (Billy) comes in and jumps on my chest to wake me up! I didn't used to close the door but have to out of necessity!

Yes Yes Yes I read somewhere that it is good living alone or not to close and lock your bedroom door. If there is a break in , it gives you time to get pepper spray out or call 911. So ever since I read that , I close and lock it!

I usually leave the bedroom door open, especially if grandchildren are sleeping over.

I don't close the bathroom door unless I'm in the shower, but it's always closed. Cat is not allowed in the bathrooms.

She will sit like a trained dog at the threshold if I'm in there.

I go around closing doors of rooms all day long to keep cat in or out of certain areas of the house.

No cat in the kitchen--ever!

We have awnings, but I still close drapes closed till midday till the sun gets high. I leave them open all evening, but when we go to bed I close those.

Do you close your bathroom door when you are using it (or not using it)?

Do you pull all of your shades down or close your drapes at night?

My answers are yes, yes, and yes.

Usually, sometimes (never), and always.

True. In our previous home, the master bedroom was on one end upstairs and so far from vulnerable French doors downstairs that I had deadbolt lock installed on bedroom door. It simply made sense. We also had a metal fire ladder for quick escape. I travelled alone for business for years and alwAys packed a door alarm. A can of wasp spray --aim for face and eyes -- makes good, quick-at-hand protection at home and bedside.
