| Somebody is casing my dad's cabin Posted: 09 Dec 2020 04:01 PM PST My dad lives in a 12'x28' cabin behind my house. We live in town. His cabin is actually on top of the concrete pad that the ice house was built on that served the town a 100 years ago. Two nights in a row someone has tapped on his window. The first night they just tapped. The second night they tapped and then loudly said "hey are you in there?". Both times it brought him out of a deep sleep. He said it was around 1am both times. I feel like its someone trying to figure out if there is someone living in the building or if its just storage. His car is parked next to it, and it has lights at the entrance that he leaves on all night. He also has a wyze cam that feeds into my Blue Iris server, but he's had it unplugged for a while due to wanting some privacy, but I convinced him to plug it back in and aim it out the window like it was before. I want to put a flood light at the end of his cabin where he parks his car. This is where the person has been tapping on the window, the only two windows are at one end of the cabin near his couch and TV. His bedroom area is on the far side away from that. He has a 12 gauge shotgun, and he knows how to use it. I grew up shooting clay pigeons with him, he's a good shot. I told him if it happens again, even if he doesn't see the person, I wouldn't be above firing a shot into the dirt to let them know you are there and you will protect yourself. We live in town (a small rural town) and I don't think one shot would be able to be located by anyone, especially in the middle of the night. Besides the flood light, is there anything else I can add to help prevent and solve this situation? There are signs posted saying "Area protected by audio visual recording". We've had several cars keyed in the past parking where he parks, but I assumed that was just some shithead kids. Edit - Basic layout of the situation And here is a shot from the security cam aimed at my backyard. Unfortunately, motion sensing at that distance in the dark wasn't good enough and I didn't pick anyone up back there the last two nights. [link] [comments] | ||

| Cheap and simple remote door look? Posted: 09 Dec 2020 05:21 AM PST Have a wooden door, and want to open it from 3 meters away. Any system or device which I can install on my own? So the door remains locked by default, and through the remote/wireless/keypad, I can open it from both inside/outside. The wooden door has a door knob hole, so any advice please??

| Options for alarm panel and monitoring Posted: 08 Dec 2020 11:27 PM PST I am moving to a house that's hardwired with sensors on windows and doors. It also has a bunch of cameras that are connected to a NVR. What's missing currently is an alarm panel. I had a few questions:
Thanks in advance for your suggestions. [link] [comments] |
