Re Securing sliding door:
I've seen UPS, etc. delivery trucks with heavy
hockey puck locks, & found one on line at:
www.accessconnect.com/prodpage20.htm
"Security Locks For Car, Truck, Suv and Van - - - -
...Take a look at our line sheet . .. The THP1
hockey puck trailer door lock has a 3/8" diameter
internal shackle."
Perhaps someone makes a smaller version? - or, how
about adding a hasp & padlock inside - so it can be
seen throuh the glass?
Please let us know your solution.

Ouch! It sounds like you were up against a determined thief. Was
there
something visible inside that he might have thought was especially
valuable?
What do you mean by obvious locks?....and how would you rig it to
prevent opening the sliding door?
Commercial vans have aftermarket locks installed that at least
*look*
more robust than the factory locks. I haven't investigated where
these
come from, though.
If you flip the childproof switch on the edge of the sliding door,
then
when it is locked, you can't open it from either the inside or
outside
with the handle. If you also installed the flush buttons, then the
only
way to unlock the door is with the key or remote button.
