We use another model for intrusion detection in our outbuildings with those remote alarm units also in the house but, indicating someone in with the machinery, instead of just the driveway. We use one set of units for the driveway and perimeter with several remote alarms around the house. They have several model numbers so you can match units. Both components are battery powered and the remote alarm is small enough to carry in your pocket. They consist of a sensor and a remote alarm. With their coupon, you can get them for $10.00. We used the Bunker Hill Security “Wireless Security Alert System” purchased from Harbor Freight. We have numerous motion sensors with remote alarms around the property and in some of the outbuildings. An outside bell tied to property sensors may be my spring project. I discourage self-invites as well but have been surprised a few times when working in the garden or shop. 41% of robberies involved firearms and 7.8% included knives or other cutting devices”. “The DOJ reported the use of weapons in a majority of robberies. “According to the FBI, you can expect 1 in every 36 homes to be robbed.” Burglars know this and use it to their advantage.” Many homes are empty during this time while people are at work. “Surprisingly, most burglaries occur between 10 AM and 3PM. 27% of them became victim of a violent crime” “The DOJ reported 1 million burglaries occurred with people in the home. SEVEN HOMES A MINUTE, and we wonder what the hell is wrong with people now-a-days…… Here is a fun stat for ya “3.7 million homes are broken into each year. Good luck, stay safe.ĭo NOT let people into your home that you would not trust your life with.ĭelivery personal, Repair-Men, Sales People, (even neighbors) or anyone you do not know WILL look around your home looking at all they can see, and even in places you don’t want them.Ĭrooks, aka dishonest people, are everywhere, Home burglaries are ramped, and so are home invasions. Also perhaps you can sit at your door and as the person knocks you can set the alarm off this may deter them. This may not stop the knocking but it will give you some confidence about your safety. Sometimes they have a flashing red light if you get that type cover the light with tape so the intruder cannot detect where the sound is coming from. When you realise, or you are confronted by an intruder you just have to knock over, or throw a glass object and when it breaks and sounds the alarm your intruder will not stay he does not want to be caught. When fitted if your constant knocker ever decides to break in or you awake to hear an intruder, have a vase or glass jug close to you or in several places around your home. About the noise of a jumbo jet racing down the runway. It is called a glass break alarm and can sound at 120 decibels which is very loud.
About the size of a smoke detector and can be wired or battery operated. I have an idea that has worked before, it is not expensive. Just read this, I sympathise with you, you must be feeling very worried and I do not blame you.
