There is no such thing as burglar proofing anything. A burglar can get in your home if they want what is in it bad enough. The home owner should create an environment which is a disadvantage to the burglar. The burglar wants to get in your home, take what they want and get out in as little time as possible. If you establish barriers that causes the burglar to have to take more time, then the chances are likely that he/she will give up and move on to something less challenging. Saying something is burglar proof leads to a false sense of security.
