Cheap low tech way to upgrade a door chain

Add a padlock or a locking carabiner so it can’t be unlocked from the other side.

At least buys you time to call police or stalls the intruder so they get spotted by a neighbor while they’re breaking in. Makes their breaking in process much longer and it forces them to either break the door or cut the chain which are much louder than trying to unlock it both of which make it more likely they’ll get caught. The noise will also definitely trigger any alarms nearby.
