Affordable and Works Great! [Posted on 2008-01-30] Even though I keep a gun next to my bed, it really bothered me that if someone managed to get into my house, I probably wouldn't wake up in time to get to it. (I'm a VERY deep sleeper and my bedroom's on the 2nd floor)
I'm so glad I decided to order this!
It's VERY loud and the 4 I ordered work on all my doors leading outside.
I even found a way to use this on my sliding glass door. By propping it gently against the sliding part of the door, and then putting something heavy behind it, to hold it in place, the alarm will go off if the door's opened.
Like the other reviewer said, I love that it's portable, so I can bring it with me to hotels and stuff.
Anyways, between how well it works, the simplicity of using it and the very reasonable price. I very highly recommend this!
Easy, portable, reliable , ear-piercing door stop alarm is perfect! [Posted on 2008-02-08] Looking for an easy to use, reliable door entry alarm with no complicated mounting? Get the GE SmartHome Door Stop Alarm. You won't be disappointed. Afer batteries are activated, you're done. Just put by your door. So sensitive to pressure that I've often scared myself by picking it up the wrong way. (Pick it up by the sides only) Easy to take with you on trips and a perfect complement to the Door Jammer. Highly recommend.
Works as expected [Posted on 2008-04-26] I purchased this to augment a home security system. While the door I am using this on is protected, the siren for the home alarm is towards the front while the door is at the back, and I basically wanted this for the siren. It is LOUD, which is obviously what you wound want, and seems sturdy, though I am not sure that if someone really pushed in on this it would survive the experience. Still, at less than $20 (far cheaper than an additional siren for the home alarm) it is well worth it.
A Glorified Door Stop [Posted on 2008-06-28] Looks good with an accessorized alarm that is truly pointless. Good quality product but if someone is trying to breakdown your door than the door stop itself will do far more good for you, seconds to call 911 or load your gun/rifle than would the alarm sounding. Hearing a door come crashing in is sufficient to alarm you!! What we call in Texas, Kick robberies.
Security on a budget [Posted on 2008-07-08] I travel for work, so having this door stop allows me a sense of security that otherwise I would not have. The alarm is very annoying so hopefully, in the event it was triggered, it would be enough to awaken even fairly deep sleepers.
My own issue with the unit is that you need a screwdriver to insert and remove the battery. I remove the battery when I travel so that there is no way for the on off switch to be activated by accident en route.
Otherwise, good value and small enough to pack and take each trip.
