How do you make the floor/wall traps work?

Setting up fire traps to burninate burglars as they enter would be nice. I am just trying to work out the simplest way of doing this.




Unfortunately, fire traps aren't actually fatal, even to mummies, which are supposed to die instantly in fire of any kind. Knowing EA, I'm sure burglars wouldn't even set off a trap, even if you placed it right in front of the front door. You can do this, of course, but it would be rather annoying for your sims to get in and out of your house.

J. M. Pescado:
Burglars find garage doors to be impenetrable obstacles, at least as of base game. You can manually open or close these as an instant, so it is possible to install a garage door in a position where in the event of hostile attack, you can instantly seal the blast doors, locking them out.

spaceface:
I just don't like the looks of the garage doors, so the thought of having one at the entrance to my Legacy mansion is not nearly as appealing as that of having fire spouting from the walls. Maybe I will have to settle for both; the fire can distract the approaching burglar while I'm closing the blast doors. I was thinking of using a pushable statue inside the house so that sims can arm the traps before they go to bed and then disarm them in the morning. Sims who are out late will still be able to teleport in.
