I prefer OH not to answer the door when it gets late unless we're expecting someone, I always answer if it's after 6ish and she just leaves it if I'm not home. We live in a nice area but it's just been a habit of ours.

I check the peep hole and make sure not to undo the chain unless I know who it is.

If I know who it is- yes! I hate being in the kitchen (kitchen's at the front) & somebody knocking, I sit on the floor & my heart pounds. If I'm on my own I get nervous & shakey if I'm not expecting anybody

i try and peep through the window i the kitchen first as my front door has glass so they would see me comming, i tend not to answer if i dont know who it is,

last night i was in the bath and it was about 9pm and someone knocked at the door, OH answered it but i was shitting myself thinking, what if its a murderer who kills OH and then comes for me and i cant do anything as im in the bath! was just the old lady from next door giving us a hat we dropped outside!

at night I'll rarely answer it, I always look to see who is at the door and if its not someone I know I'll answer the door with the safety chain on. we've got a big sticker on the inside of our door 'if in doubt keep them out' works for me, if oh's home he'll answer
