main gate No main gate - any recommended locks for security

[xiaoyuanyuan 0]

I am currently renovating my resale flat. The main gate is partially opened as it was blocked by the PUB electrical meter box. Therefore, I decided to do away with the main gate. 

Anyone stays in a flat without a main gate? 

How do you secure your home?

What kind / types of locks are you using for the main door? 

Looking forward to your recommendation. Thanks.

A picture would really be helpful to know the issue you are facing TS

The current gate is a 2-door main gate. If I were to fix one end, the other side will not open fully due to the meter box. 

Any suggestions?

there's a type of gate which does not have both gate panels of the same size. basically the gate comprise of 1 big panel and a smaller panel. the smaller panel is normally closed unless there's a need to open it to move big items into the house. you can just install this type of gate with the smaller panel on the meter box side and solve the problem.

If I don't wish to install a gate, any recommendation on the type of locks to use?

I think you can customize your door with contractor ba , or not also very dangerous like that

the gate itself I feel serves more of the purpose of allowing the main door to be left open (when there's occupants in the house) to provide for ventilation while still preventing anyone from going in/out of the house freely. I guess if you really don't want the gate, can maybe add another set of dead bolt lock which can only be bolted in from inside as well as those chain latch to prevent the door from being able to be opened fully.
