Product Description
A burglary occurs every 14.5 seconds in the U.S., and budget cuts have led to an average 911 response time of 10 minutes. Furthermore, without the ability to install a home security system, renters and travelers can have a hard time feeling secure in their temporary housing. SABRE’s Door Stop Alarm is a great solution to either help fortify an existing home alarm system or use on its own in a bedroom, dorm, hotel room or apartment. The extremely 120dB loud alarm is audible up to 1,500-feet (455-meters) away and sounds when door pressure is applied. It is compatible with doors that have a 0.75" gap between the floor and bottom of door (if the gap is greater, the alarm will not be able to activate when the door is opened). The alarm is coupled with a non-skid pad to prevent the door from opening. This attractive, premium white alarm installs easily in just seconds – simply slide it under the crack of an inward-swinging door. There’s no wiring needed, so the alarm works during power outages. Requires 1x9V battery (not included). A small Philips Head #1 size screwdriver is required to remove battery compartment cover. For an extra level of security, the Door Stop Alarm provides a battery status update via a low battery indicator. The Door Stop Alarm was developed by SABRE, the #1 pepper spray brand trusted by police and consumers worldwide, meaning this product is extremely reliable. Backed by over 45 years in the security industry, SABRE products must pass rigorous quality assurance testing before leaving our facilities to give you peace of mind. Improve your home security today.

For those who don't want to read thru the end....Conclusion:
This is a great and simple solution to keep people from entering your home, while you are at home.
But you have to buy additionally a 9V block battery, need a micro screw driver to place the battery and you have to buy a simple fastener solution (see below) for slippery floor surfaces (e.g. wooden floors, stone or tiles)
Delivery:
I bought it on Amazon. Delivery was this time one day late.
Opening:
The packaging of the Alarm is tricky to open. Its completely blistered. This is not very Eco-friendly and you need strong household scissors to open it.
Content:
Just the Alarm, A short 1/4 page instruction.
NO battery included. you need to buy a 9V block battery separately.
Installation / Functioning:
First you need to buy extra a 9V battery... if you realize this only after the packaging arrived, this might be quite bothersome as many households will have AAA or AA batteries always at home but not 9V block batteries.
The installation of the battery requires a micro screw drive. A normal screw driver will not get you far as you wil just damage the screw head. Battery once installed you should be good to go.
The alarm is loud and it works very effective.
But I have a wooden floor and the device always slid away when opening the door.
The rubbers on the bottom would hold strong enough to the ground.
So I bought this Scotch Reclosable Fasteners, Clear, 1 x 3-Inches, 2 Sets (RF9730) to hold it strong to the ground and the door cannot slide it away.
==> this works perfectly.
1) The door is completely and very tight blocked! This keeps intruders from entering your home AND
2) you can remove the alarm easily while this scotch fastener consist of two parts. One sticks to the floor and the other to the alarm and you can peel the device off any time easily from the floor.
2) The alarm goes safely off if the door opens and cannot be switch off by the intruder - given you have placed the alarm fixed to the ground with the fastener close enough to the door.
Final rating:
As the obligatory 9V block battery is missing and additional investment into a fastener solution for slippery surface is needed (depending on your home) i can unfortunately only give 4 stars. Once installed properly it works perfect.
Open question remaining:
How long will the battery last?
If your door sits on an entryway lip, so it's elevated in relation to the inside ground level, and hence will only touch the higher back end of the silver trigger when opened, then the alarm will not sound off.
In other words, you would think that having any part of the silver aluminum trigger being touched by the door would set off the alarm, but that's not true. Only the front lower tip area activates the alarm, and not the back part that's higher up and closer to the alarm speaker.
Otherwise it seems built well enough for the price. The alarm sound is very loud, no way you won't be woken up to it.
Top reviews from other countries
They work in two ways:
1) The metal plate completes a circut which trips a loud alarm
2) The wedge shape allows for blocking of doors that open inward by jamming the door "up" and binding up the hinges, barring physical entry.
This is dependent on a few factors:
The door opens inward
The door is at a proper enough height to facilitate such an action
The floor surface is grippy enough to not allow the device to slide.
They work absolutely well, with a few caveats, but first the positives.
Pros:
The are loud (almost debilitating in small rooms) , don't take up a lot of room and are pretty simple to use.
Cons:
They won't fit under all doors due to the height of them. Some doors are too low, others too high.
On some surfaces they will slide, because you can't get a good wedge because pushing it too far under the door will trip the sensor.
By attaching two together with an elastic band, I have managed to make them go off, but not block the door to an effectiveness level that I felt comfortable with.
They would work well for waking occupants, provided those occupants are prepared to do something about those person or persons are gaining entry. As a simple stand-alone deterrent, I'd rate them on a 3/10. They won't stop someone determined to gain entry, but they will keep the honest crooks or mistaken housekeeping away with no issues.
For improvements on these I would like to see a method of attaching a tripwire/string to them that can allow the same action of a door opening and depressing the metal trigger to trip the alarm. This is useful for times where they won't fit under doors, doors that open outwards (but you'd still like to know when they are opened).
Upgraded and expanded grippy material on the bottom to facilitate better sticky action on floors
all in all, if you're someone who wants extra piece of mind, one or two of these in your bag is never a bad idea.
PS : Prévoir une pile de 9V ! Dommages qu'elle ne soit pas fournie ! Mais vu la qualité de l'appareil, aucun soucis !
