Ask HN: If a neighbor kicks down the door to your property what crime is it?
You don&#x27;t say where you&#x27;re living or if you rent vs own.  All of that can make a difference on what you&#x27;re allowed to do.<p>General advice:<p>Get a doorbell camera and&#x2F;or a peephole camera. This way you can record who did it and have evidence to go to the police with.<p>If you really believe this could escalate to a violent physical confrontation, then prepare for that as well.  Planning alternate escape paths, and deciding when escape is viable vs having to defend.  Because cameras can capture what happened but they won&#x27;t stop an unstable person.
