As such, it is important to take steps to protect you and your family’s safety. A DIY perimeter alarm is a great way to make sure your property is secure. It is simple to set up and relatively inexpensive to use.
This DIY perimeter alarm is designed to alert you if any intruder crosses your perimeter. It works by emitting a loud noise when someone crosses the defined area.

Instructions
Step 1: Make Your DIY Perimeter Alarm
The first step to creating your DIY Perimeter Alarm is to choose your materials and select an appropriate alarm system. You can opt for a basic alarm system, which will sound a loud noise when someone enters your predetermined perimeter. You can also choose a more comprehensive system, which is able to detect motion as well. Once selected, assemble the pieces according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Step 2: Install the Perimeter Alarm System
The next step is to install the alarm. You can choose to DIY your installation-and save yourself some money-but it is recommended that you hire a professional to conduct the installation. The alarm should be placed in an area of your home or campsite that offers a clear view, and away from any other distractions (such as water pipes, etc.).
Step 3: Test the Alarm
Once your alarm system is installed, take some time to test it. Make sure that it is functioning as expected, and gives off a loud noise when activated. Once you are satisfied, you can then set the alarm to your desired level of sensitivity.
Conclusion
Having a DIY Perimeter Alarm in place can be a great way to offer additional security to your home or campsite. It is simple to install, relatively inexpensive, and can give you peace of mind knowing that your property is safe. Take some time to research the various alarm systems available, and decide which system is best for you.
