Are they worth it?

I may look into getting a few of the small inexpensive battery powered window and door alarms. They take up little room and can be installed throughout the house in about an hour. They come in two basic types the ones that make a contact and an alarm sounds and the other that sounds the alarm when the contact is broken.

If the situation does start to get a bit sketchy, and there is a rise in criminal activity and lawlessness, it might be nice to have that little extra bit of AA battery powered security.

Wireless Driveway Alert & Driveway Alarm System

Or
Dakota Alert Long Range Alert System Kit - Amazon.com

Both good options for knowing you have a problem before they are in your house

I have the Dakota alert system and it works great! I change the battery in the sending unit about every 8 months and no worries, no-one will sneak up to this house!

The cool thing is you can have up to 4 detectors on a system with a a 2+ mile perimitor for super servailiance

Map out the most logical infiltration routes and stake them out
