Somebody(s) opened the electric garage door by driving wedge right in the center of the garage door at the top, then reached in with some sort of perhaps a coat hanger and grabbed the emergency release cord to the garage door and opened the door. Then they cut the chain with a cordless angle grinder. how long they spent in the garage doing that we don't know, but the bike was stolen and was never recovered. Of course his insurance covered it but it was a hassle never the less. So he now installed a burglar alarm on the garage and house, and he cut the plastic handle off the cord that releases the garage door so they can't grab onto the cord. I did the same thing to my garage door too.
I know that kind of chain can be cut. It takes about 10 min to do it with an angle grinder. But i already gave one solution against the angle grinder in a previous post.
Anyway, the best way is to mix security systems. I don't rely only on the chain + padlock combo
