Just a example of a real safe house (from my current game).

Block the windows, create rope entries, build walls, and find a sledgehammer.

Hmm ok, because whenever I put curtains up and go scavenge there is still a window knocked out lol

well zombies will still wonder around and might find your place and smash it, find nails and make some planks then borad up windows

Curtains only block the side of view, but the zeds can still hear you, you need to barricate the windos.

Is it right that Zombies can pull down sheet ropes now?

Short term you can build wooden walls on the ground floor outside of a building and box off windows so they're completely inaccessable.

Yes
Is this something that's pretty much guaranteed to happen with a horde of zombies?

I think you quoted the wrong person. I'm simply asking if there's a high chance of the rope getting pulled down by zombies. Currently planning my home base build and considering using the rope trick as one of my only ways in and out of the building.

Even a single zed can and will destroy a rope, its now just a matter of time, of course a horde would destroy the rope in some seconds i guess.

But in my screen shot you can see that i did a work arround for the rope entry.

Ok, that's what I figured - only a matter of time so contingencies need to be in place. You know, I actually thought of doing something like you idea except I will probably build a small tower with a tiny bridge that connects to another tower on the other side of my fence, both with doors obviously and ropes. Thanks for the answer.
