Coach Door Alarm System

My DW wanted a warm and fuzzy feeling while we slept, especially when boondocking. This device was designed for a truck tool box application. I found it in Lowes.

Thanks for the door alarm idea.

Our coach doesn't have a built-in alarm.
So I bought the Doberman SE-0205 Tool Box alarm for $13.48 after military 10% Home Depot discount.

Alarm is on door frame up by shade and will let us know if the door is opened.
Plan to turn it on at night with its remote control.

Simple, cheap, easy to install and does the job.

Barry & Cindy,
We've had ours installed over a year with excellent results. It's caught me more than once. It will let you know when batteries are low. Good Luck

I like, especiallly the remote control part.  Mine does not have the remote control.  Going to have to look for one.

I am not worried about someone opening the door. It is the windows that are more of an issue.  It is not hard to break in that way and quiet too with a putty knife.
