Very impressive alarm, as advertised and reviews rave it’s confirmed it is a worthy purchase, works great and hopefully will prevent initial damage to shed door as it is very sensitive to the door movement which I have learned by accident.Very easy to install and great quality, volume is loud and offers a great security option at a reasonable priceWould highly recommend

excellent just the job was amazed at how load it was .. great value for money

A relatively cheap and easy to install shed alarm. I was thinking it’s crazy really? - You buy all these expensive tools for your shed only to spend around £20 for an alarm to protect them? There is a link to a basic video guide provided with the item which shows you how to install the alarm and ‘arm’ it. It’s fairly straightforward, that said, during the instruction film you see a chap pressing the supplied remote control from a distance but for some reason it doesn’t show you a close-up of the four remote buttons in order to see which one he is actually pressing?Basically, the top large circular button arms the alarm, the next one down unlocks the alarm. The third button allows you to switch between alarm sounds (a siren through to a sort of digital warble). At the time of writing this I haven’t figured out what the fourth button does as yet?For its size - it is ‘fairly’ loud but I’m not sure you would hear this from your house, especially if like me, your shed is situated at the bottom of your garden? However, I reckon it would be good enough to deter the casual thief.How does it work? Well, you attach the alarm to the inside of your shed door using the supplied sticky pads. Shut the door and then set the alarm using the remote. If anyone tries to disturb the door it will trigger a short warning buzz. Then if you touch (move) the door for a second time it will trigger the ‘full’ alarm. It can then only be disarmed via the remote. As this alarm senses movement from anything it is attached to, it could be used in a number of scenarios. For example, you could easily attach this to your garage door, or perhaps a door or window in your house?The remote is fairly small and designed to fit on a keyring. (See my pic) There is also a plastic plectrum included in the kit. I’m guessing this is to aid inserting the remote onto your keychain? (There are no instructions and nothing mentioned in the installation film).The alarm is battery powered, so I guess it’s a case of keeping a spare supply of these? All in all however, not bad for the price! An alarm is actually more use than a shed lock I reckon? I’ve often thought that anyone with a screwdriver can basically get into a shed by simply removing the hinges so what is the point of a lock?

Excellent bit of kit, easy to set up, and works a treat.

Overall a simple but effective vibration triggered alarm. Turned on/off with supplied remote fob linked to that alarm specifically. It gives a short warning sound on first disturbance, thereafter a full long alarm if knocked again within 10 seconds. The advantage of this being that a would-be intruder will discover the door is alarmed on first moving the door (a light shove with one finger is sufficient to get a squawk) and then the full alarm if they continue. So there’s a good chance they’ll go no further as the alarm noise will spoil their fun and draw attention. Most thieves have ‘form’ and are well known to local police; they do not want to be identified.There’s no manual but a link to YouTube videos explaining use, adjusting sensitivity or linking units to one key fob. The alarm is pretty loud for its size and could easily be cable tied to other objects (bikes, lawnmowers, trailers etc) to make their silent removal impossible.I’ve only a couple of constructive criticisms to make.Firstly, it is attached with a pair of supplied adhesive tabs. Whatever you feel about these, you will have to rip it off your shed door to change the batteries (3x AAA, also included) and buy new ones to reattach each time. A lug with screw each end would be simpler, stronger and more lasting.Instead, I used the supplied cable ties to secure each end to a flat piece of wood cut slightly longer than the alarm, then screwed the wood ends to the shed door.My second gripe is that opening the alarm to change the batteries is difficult, hence having to rip it off the shed door first. Removing the small end screw with supplied screwdriver really ought to be all that’s needed. But bizarrely, the two halves then have to be prized apart like opening a mobile phone. They even supply a little plastic tool, but just like opening your phone, it’s tricky, needs lots of careful force and feels like damage is easily done. A screw or two would have been much less of a headache.But allowing for these two failings, I like the fact this doesn’t rely on a PIR detector which some spider might crawl over and trigger. And door switch triggered units may be simpler but only go off after your door’s been forced open, meaning damage even if they run away with nothing. Do mind your door isn’t unusually wobbly when locked lest it trigger in the wind, though I’ve no false alarms with my two sheds in windy conditions.

For the size and price this is a great item

This arrived without instructions. I checked YouTube for guidance. It is very easy to install 3 easy steps.However at no time does it suggest that the batteries need changed every 3-6 months and you need to place the device so that you can unscrew the bottom part to enable this.!!!!!

I am using it currently and it has not let me downLook nice and work nicely
