I do not have an intercom because I do not want every hawker and job seeker in the neighbourhood bugging me. I especially do not want to pay cellphone rates for them to be able to bug me. Everyone who wants to visit me calls ahead so that I can expect them. Then they just hoot when they arrive. Hawkers standing outside calling me get ignored. Anyone jumping the wall thinking I am not home will dealt with accordingly. Survivors will be dealt with again.

Thats exactly what Im talking about - it seems to be the new modus - ring the bell if no one answers break-in, if owner happens to be home or arrives home hold him up.
My gates were also forced open when I wasn't home, I saw the suspects in my street when I left home, afterwards the same guys broke into a house down the road and held up the owner when he arrived home.
