Consider that a security system can cost less than a reliable armored door and cover the entire space.

How to choose a security system?

Address to a large established company of the field and select a security system according to your own needs and not a ''copy paste'' that any one man show installer would suggest.

Talk to a specialized consultant that will assess the needs of the house or the building based to a specific vulnerability questionnaire. As all technologies are constantly evolving so do the security systems. Ask for an update from the security consultant on issues such as perimeter coverage, wireless emergency buttons, uninterrupted communication with the monitoring station and remote management.
