Difficult to set up on uneven surfaces,.and never never drop the alarm,

it is definitely not a timex! broken broken broken. Do not waste your money. Buy a freaking set of bells and stick that on your door window etc. Rating: 1 / 5

The product did not work at all. Was a total waste of time to try to work with it and mail it back. Rating: 1 / 5

This is a very good product for anyone on a budget that wants to sleep better at night and cannot afford a monthly paid alarm system. Loud enough to wakeup even a heavy sleeper to alert to a possible breakin. A little tricky to install but worth the effort. I purchased 2 sets to cover both doors and windows. Rating: 4 / 5

Certainly won’t replace a home alarm system, but gives me a little piece of mind, louder than I thought they would be. Rating: 4 / 5

Just a line here: I’ve had this type of alarm before. The one I had before and this one work great for what they do. Now, for the down side.

On those old doors–like what I have–in those hundred year old houses–like what I have–the doors are ’sunk’ into the wall deeper than in the more modern houses. In modern houses the door is usually flush with the wall and door frame. It’s easy to put a deadbolt on that type of door. But the older house’s outside doors are sunk in deeper.

You will have trouble fitting one of these magnetic type alarms to the door frame and door. I had to turn mine upside down and put it on backwards (the adhesive side still goes up against the door and frame) and only found one spot on the entire door it would work.

But like I said, these types of alarms are great at what they do…I recommend them–when these stop working I will get more.

BYE! Rating: 5 / 5
