Videos have been out for a few years now about this trick, but according to Columbus Police they are hearing more instances of break-ins by this method. The first video shows how quickly someone can break into your garage that has the electronic door opening system. This video shows a garage that has windows, however I have seen other videos where there were no windows.
This second video shows you how you can quickly deter a potential break-in by the above method and still keep the garage door quick release working as intended from the inside. This may not be a fool proof method, and this might not be a safe option in an emergency when you find that the zip-tie is not breaking for you. Consult professionals before performing this quick fix.
