FAQs

How is the vibration alarm powered?

The main alarm unit is powered by three AAA batteries. The remote control typically comes with a pre-installed battery.

How loud is the alarm?

The alarm is designed to be loud enough to deter intruders and alert people nearby. Specific decibel levels are not provided, but it is intended to be highly audible.

Can I install this alarm on any type of door or window?

It is most effective on solid surfaces like metal, wood, or rigid plastic found on sheds, garages, and conventional doors/windows. It may be less effective on very flexible or porous materials.

How do I change the sensitivity settings?

The sensitivity is adjusted using the buttons on the remote control. Refer to the product manual for specific button functions.

What are the dimensions of the alarm unit?

The compact alarm unit measures approximately H9.5 x W4.2 x D2.3cm.

Does the alarm require professional installation?

No, the alarm features a wireless, tool-free design for easy DIY installation.

What is the range of the remote control?

The exact range is not specified, but typical wireless remote controls operate effectively within a reasonable distance of the main unit, suitable for use around a shed or garage.

Troubleshooting

Alarm does not sound when activated.

Check that the batteries are correctly inserted and have sufficient charge. Ensure the alarm unit is properly adhered to the surface and that the sensitivity is set appropriately. Test with the remote control.

False alarms are being triggered.

Adjust the sensitivity setting to a lower level. Ensure the alarm is not placed in an area subject to excessive vibrations (e.g., directly on a frequently used pathway or next to a washing machine).

Remote control is not working.

Check and replace the battery in the remote control. Ensure the remote is within range of the alarm unit.

Alarm unit is not sticking firmly.

Ensure the mounting surface is clean, dry, and smooth. For a more secure fit, consider reinforcing the adhesive or using a suitable mounting bracket if available.
