Where to steal items to deconstruct?

In TESO, I have this technique to improve my blacksmithing rather fast:

  1. find an closed door armory and get inside
  2. steal all the weapons
  3. log-out then log-back in
  4. repeat steps 2 and 3 until your inventory is full
  5. deconstruct everything and gain 1-2 levels of blacksmithing.

For blacksmithing, for instance, I found the Red Squall Armory in Wayrest.

Are there other closed-doors locations like that where you can steal in large batches

  • light/medium armor?
  • bows/staves/shields?

Note: the closed-door part is really important as if you mess up and get caught, you can continue your stealing without having the guards harassing you.

Sabyssa's Blacksmith, in Stormhaven, the first town from Glendura.

You can easily get away with stealing 15 or so weapons a login, with out bounty increase.

You can also smith, nearby.
