SABREHome Security System With Remote, 125dB Alarm, Audible Up To 850 Feet (259 Meters), Wireless, Comes With 1 Motion Sensor Alarm, 2 Door or Window Alarms and 1 Remote Key Fob, Home and Away Modes

I liked the idea of this alarm. Very small contacts with a motion sensor that you can easily mount anywhere. Bought it for my RV where I need a thin contact. Received the first alarm and could not get it to function. The problem seemed to be with the fob. Unfortunately this alarm only arms and disarms with the fob. Returned but decided to give it another try and ordered a replacement. Encountered the same fob issue as with the first set. This time we were able to discover the design flaw that kept the fob from working. The battery in the fob does not make correct contact when the battery cover is on. If I took off the battery cover and pressed done on the button battery while pressing the fob buttons the products works perfectly. I like the overall design enough that I will keep this set and figure out a way to seat the battery more snugly.

I have this alarm in my detached garage. The unit It replaced was infrared activated, and you had to point the remote to activate it. This one only has to be in proximity to activate. The window/door sensors are a plus, and work well. I'm very happy with it.

Great little alarm system, too bad it’s being discontinued.

Step 1~ Attach 3M strip to back of alarm.3M strip, ok? Oh~ it's not included so, there's that.Step 2~ Pair Motion sensor with Alarm.Oh, that's a cute little chirp it makes.Wait~ it's on Home mode.Let's see what happens when I slide the remote to Away.So Loud. Well, that'll wake you up.Off. Off, Why won't the Off button make it stop? (removes batteries, grateful tested before installed).Ohhh ~ that's right, couldn't install without 3M strips.Step 3~ Test spot for alarm sensor.Not one window or sliding door in my home is flush.Which means they won't line up so won't work.Not Sabre's fault. Just worth noting if yours do before ordering (and ordering 3M strips).Some things are on Sabre.And some things come with the low expectation of a budget "alarm".Ultimately the design makes it a no go for me but maybe it'll work for you.Still love Sabre ( Saber? Sa-bray?) to bits for their pepper gel.Give one to all my friends & store in multiple spots including my phone ring.Safety first.

I like this kit for being quick and easy to install. It includes double sided tape to mount the door and the batteries for the sensor. You'll need some AA batteries for the motion sensor/base unit.I mounted this to a set of french doors that were in no way flush. However the magnet worked just fine to let the sensor know the door was shut. I'd say it's about 1/2" away from the sensor and still works. If you are in the situation where you have a door that doesn't sit flush, you can improvise with the magnet. I've used small rod magnets before on doors where the jamb was an issue. I've also put small round magnets imbedded into the wood of doors that didn't line up. So if you have a door that doesn't line up exactly to the jamb, get creative - it's basic kindergarten skills to mount this.The on - off function from the remote works really well. I like the simplicity. I leave the unit in "home" mode for the most part since I'm home all the time. This is a notifier to wake me at night if someone opens the doors.I would not call the siren ear-splitting but it's definitely loud enough to wake a sleeping person in the same room. It makes the dog bark.
