  TBF, this doesn’t look like a security feature, but just a convenient way to span the chain taut.

    Incorrect.

    It used to be a fully locked metal pole gate, but someone a few years ago unscrewed and removed the hefty hinges.

    So now under new management, this is the bullshit they installed to replace the reinforced gate, rather than replacing the original gate hinges.

    Any 8 year old or above with a flathead screwdriver can take that new chain shit down…

      Also, is that chain plastic?

      to be fair, anyone who wants to enter could probably do so even with a gate, this looks more like a shitty “please do not enter” sign

      To be honest, it might be faster picking that shit lock than running that hose clamp out with a screwdriver.

      Something like this isn’t meant to provide real security, just discourage anyone from driving in or out of their lot after hours. If someone really wants in there, they can just step under or over the chain.

      I was thinking it was that yellow plastic chain that used to be everywhere

      I could probably sit my ass on the chain and break the hose clamps…

      I’m not gonna try, I’m an honest person, but still…

      I think my car could break that chain. Or the poles. 🤷‍♂️

    Towing fee for parking there is more like $200, daily.

  Is tampering with property+trespassing more of a legal no-no than just trespassing?
