in the pic with the green door, it doesn't even look like the dead-bolt was used? Or else why wouldn't it be bent/sheared off, and unable to recede into it's hole?

Look at the frame, the locks held up great but the wood broke out. I assure you, both locks were done.
yeah, I'm not done. I'm getting an alarm system, motion lights, and installing trail camera's around my house. I will know who you are next time. I've used these in the woods and they've got great clarity.

They encase the door jam with metal brackets; one around two of the hinges, one large one for the lock side, and one around each door lock. They're installed with massive three inch screws that anchor in the 2X4's behind the wall. I assure you, the method they used before will not work again.
