Danny Lipford: Now this house has a whole alarm system which certainly is one of the best ways to detect if anyone is trying to break in your home. Now it’s fairly expensive but there are cheaper alternatives. Another device senses this motion outside the home and then sends a wireless signal to turn on the light inside the house. Again creating the impression someone is home. Another way to achieve this effect is to program a timer to turn on or off interior lights while you're away from home. Interior motion detection is also available in the form of a stand alone alarm which will cause it’s battery powered can be mounted virtually anywhere. When these units sense motion they sound an alarm that can only be silenced by entering the proper code. Single location alarms are also a great local’s alternative to the whole house system. In the case of this wireless window alarm, the two sections of the unit are backed with adhesive and one piece is attached to the window frame while the other sticks to the window sash. If properly aligned there is a magnetic contact between these two sections that when broken by opening the window emits a piercing alarm.
