Introduction
No-one wants to be the victim of a break-in or theft. Unfortunately, this is a common occurrence regardless of the location. To protect your home and camp from theft or burglary, you’ll want to install a perimeter alarm system. Installing a perimeter alarm system can be expensive, but it doesn’t have to be. With a few simple steps, you can create your own DIY perimeter alarm that is sure to keep unwanted visitors away.
Step 1: Gather the Materials You Need
The first step in creating your DIY perimeter alarm system is to gather the materials you need. You’ll want to purchase a motion detector alarm, door/window sensors, and a doorbell. You can find these materials at most home improvement stores.
Step 2: Choose the Location for Your Alarm
The next step is to choose the location for your alarm. You’ll want to place the alarm away from any trees, shading, or wind that could disrupt its function. Placing it in an unobstructed area will ensure that it works properly.
Step 3: Install the Motion Detector Alarm
The third step is to install the motion detector alarm. Make sure to place it strategically in areas you want keyed out from your home and camp. When someone passes by the edge of the alarm, it will sound off an alert to alert you of someone’s presence.
Step 4: Install the Door and Window Sensors

Step 5: Install the Doorbell Alarm
The fifth step is to install the doorbell alarm. You can get a wireless doorbell alarm that will sound off an alert if anyone tries to enter your home without your permission. This type of alarm will also notify you if someone is trying to break into your home or camp.
Conclusion
With these five simple steps, you can create your own DIY perimeter alarm system to protect your home and camp. This system is sure to keep your family and possessions safe from theft or burglary. Always remember to arm your alarm system and keep it regularly maintained to ensure its proper function.
