Do It Yourself Alarm Systems

Looking for an alarm system for your home, business or cottage but you don't want to pay any monthly fees or installation fees? Then a do it yourself alarm may be just what the doctor ordered. Most of these alarm systems are meant to be end user friendly so you can do it yourself or with a handy friend or family member.  

These do it yourself alarms can be self monitored rather than paying for professional monitoring.  In case of an alarm the notification goes to the home owner, family or neighbour by way of a phone call or a smart phone notification.  

Self monitored alarms are popular in areas where the police are known to take too long to respond or where the user doesn't want to pay any monthly fees.  Keep in mind you cannot have the alarm system automatically call directly to police or fire.  The notification goes to the user who decides how to handle it.

Here are our most popular do it yourself (DIY) kits.

For basic protection of single rooms, entrances, dorm rooms, small apartments, cottages, etc these alarms provide basic intrusion notification with very simple installation and little or no programming required.
