A Smart Way to Stop 'Smash-and-Grab Robberies' is a Steel Roll-'Down' Storefront Door With a Unique 'Twist' Idea. You hit that red button, and the steel door closes at will, locking the thieves inside until the police arrive. Check out the rest of my story at this link.

Is this an AI article? It's quite a mess of text.

Also, who in the world would want thieves locked in WITH THEM? Oh, I had an issue with some property being stolen, now I turned it into an assault and possibly murder.

Additionally, you're assuming the cops are going to show up promptly. What happens if it takes them 30+ minutes or longer. Just chill out with a bunch of criminals in your store?

What happens if a fire starts and triggers it, locking everyone inside? You need a PROPERLY LABELED fire exit so you don't kill people. Guess what criminals are going to use to get out when that gate shuts.
