Installing alarms on your doors and windows is a great idea if you want to increase the security of your home. These portable devices are the perfect solution for those who want to avoid the expense of a whole-house alarm system, but still want to protect their family and possessions. Modern technology has advanced to the point that you can install these small, wireless devices yourself. Today, there are many different kinds of wireless door and window alarms on the market today, though most are installed in similar ways. Here are a few tips for those looking to install door and window alarms:
1) Find out what type of alarm is best for your specific needs. Knowing what models are on the market will give you a wide range to choose from so that you can select the model that is best suited to your needs. Most alarms will automatically sound when the door or window is opened. There are others that will sound when the glass is broken; these are ideal for sliding glass doors and other large panes of glass that may be smashed by an intruder. In these cases, a normal door or window alarm may not sound, since the window is not physically opened.
2) Read the instructions. This should be a given when installing anything, but especially when that device is meant to protect your family from harm. Make sure you have the right tools, which typically means a screwdriver. Also read the directions regarding alarm placement; each alarm model may have a slightly different placement within the door or window assembly. Following these directions ensures that the alarm works as intended. Though the alarms are designed to be installed in just a few minutes, with no special training or tools, that doesn't mean that you can skip this step.
3) Locate the entrances and exits in need of alarms. Seems pretty simple, right? Far too many people take the time to protect their front door, and maybe even their back door or a bedroom window. A surprising number of people couldn't name all of the entrances to their home from memory. Go outside, walk around the house, and count all of the doors and windows that could be opened by an intruder. Don't forget about second story windows, as many intruders may be willing to climb up to get inside your house. Even if these entrances aren't convenient to you, thieves only want to get inside your home, and they'll look for any entry point they can find to do so. In short, these inexpensive alarms should be installed on any entrance to your home, as well as your garage and any outbuildings.
4) Test the alarms periodically. As soon as you've finished installing the alarm, test it out. Do the two sides contact each other properly, and does the alarm sound when the door or window is opened? Test these devices every 6 months to a year � a good rule of thumb is every time you change your clocks for daylight savings or check your smoke alarm batteries � to make sure they are still working properly.
