 Ben,
 They will simply break your window to get in. You can't put hasps in all 
the doors or you won't be able to get in yourself w/o climbing out of a 
window. They can break a window; jump in; then unlock the un-hasped door.
 Sounds like you need a parking garage if moving is not an option.
 If you insist on installing hasps, you can but prefabircated ones from 
Lowes, OSH, or Home Depot. They should have one of each in your immediate 
neighborhood. No need to have a custom one made if it will just be on 
inside.
