Kris Hession forced entry into a house in the Stechford area of Birmingham on October 31 last year.
He was disturbed by police and was later found to be hiding in a neighbouring garden where he was arrested.
The 40-year-old, of Holford Drive, Birmingham, pleaded guilty at Birmingham Crown Court to aggravated burglary, possession of an offensive weapon in a public place, possession of a knife or sharp pointed article and possession of class B drugs.
On October 18, he was jailed for seven years and six months.
DC Leigh Draper at West Midlands Police said: "Being a victim of burglary or attempted burglary often has a terrible psychological impact, so we hope this will bring some comfort to the family Hession targeted."
