So I know I've recommended some expensive home security options like the real link camera system or the nest or ring doorbell security system, but what about something cheaper? So that got me thinking the main reason that we have these security features is that so we can have more time to react to something that's happening before it happens. In my opinion, the cheapest way to add time when someone's entering your property is a driveway alarm. You can Google these on Amazon or check it out on my store. This is a simple battery powered device for less than 50 bucks that you install outside of your house that will ring a chime indoors whenever somebody passes a threshold. So for example, I have these installed in my driveway. Whenever somebody enters the driveway, there's a chime that goes off inside my house that let me know that somebody has entered the property. These were great too because when you pair them with a camera system, sometimes the camera's malfunction, they don't detect motion like they should. This is just a layer of redundancy that ensures that you'll be notified of someone answers your property.
