Hi, I’m currently living in a flat and I’d like to install an intruder alarm on the front door. What system would you recommend that isn’t too expensive? I live in the UK btw.

Ideally, I’m looking for one that has a keypad and a short delay before the alarm goes off because I don’t want to wake up the neighbours every time I come home.

Also, I want something without smartphone notifications or anything like that. This is because I want an alarm that will actually scare the intruders away, rather than just tell me I’m being burgled.

We have a dog which is always running around so a motion sensor would be unsuitable.

I’m a few floors up so my windows are probably safe.

Thanks in advance!
