Can it be use on an inside door to alert one when a child opens the door

Yes. I have a front door as well as a storm door and like to leave the front door open to let the light in. I used velcro and mounted mine to the storm door. You can do the same thing and mount it to the front door and it will serve the same purpose.

Yes, it is excellent for that sort of thing, you can put it on chime and a loud chiming sounds every time the door is open. On any door also.

Yes, it is made for the inside of door. Would be too loud on alarm setting, but can be set to "chime" and alert when door is opened.
649005
Yes. This would work well for that purpose assuming the front or back surface of the door is flush with the door trim.

It might if the door was jarred or thumped hard enough, but I suppose if they were able to do it gently, then no. Just my guess, haven't tried it personally. :) I've triggered mine mistakenly on occasion by bumping it or hitting it with the dog's fetch toys, but it's smart enough not to sound when the sliding glass doors are opened. Ultimately I think these alarms are designed for sounding upon breakage of the glass, they are definitely a good deterrent in that regard, but for covert entry through doors being opened(or removed) they probably won't fare so well, unless it was done in a forceful enough manner. Hope this info helped!

I'd use a sound-activated glass break detector in conjunction with a magnetic switch to detect if the door is opened without breaking the glass.

No. This device sounds an alarm when it is tripped, i.e., when the door is opened. It is adhered to the door and doorframe with velcro, so it is not a secure device. It is a very fun toy, however. It didn't fit well on the entry door to my son's bedroom, so we put it on his closet door.

Absolutely. It works with motion detection so I've had service people notice it and comment that a neighbor kid was pointing laser at me/them.

This works by catching the door jamb. If there is a small gap in your exterior doors - it works well. We mainly use it on interior doors to keep kids out of rooms they don't need to be in without supervision. The door stays open a couple of inches, but is too tall for them to reach.

You would need to have some sort of receiver that would let you know when the door opens. As for your teenager being able to turn this off he or she could remove the battery from it (the device is visible on the door) and they could also turn of the receiving device if they had access to it. Hopes this helps and I'm sorry I was so long in answering your question but I was out of state.

The alarm emits a light beep when activated (turned on) and the same when deactivating it. When it detects movement it emits a LOUD alarm that will awake anyone in the house. I used it to detect movementOf a walker used by the patient. I leaned it against the walker so that it fall over if the walker was moved. It worked like a charm.....

Probably not . If its under a really dark indoor maybe. You have to use a radio trigger :)

Hi, If you place the sensor outside, I imagine someone could steal it. We use our's inside as a door chime, the chime goes off when someone enters a door.

It would work indoors to detect motion, however not for lights being activated..

it has a separate connection to use the reed switch in installations where you do not need insteon wireless connections. So depending on your alarm, it could trigger it when the door moves to open.

Not necessarily. They are designed to pick up vibrations such as would occur when someone bangs on the frame or glass or if the window pane is broken. You would be better served if in addition to this type of alarm you installed the type that is specifically designed to activate when window is opened. Amazon sells those also. Again I would recommend using both.

Yes it would work just fine for this. It will also send you an alert when she leaves, if she uses the same door to leave.

Yes it can. I believe we bought another element door buzzer? To make this happen. We have two entrances and each has own sound. It is a good product.

I do not see why not. However, it will not work with light relay, that is resistance based. Motion detector should work.I have it in a reading lamp/night light in the kids room.

Yes. It is about as loud as a fire truck siren if toy are standing next to it though. And was very sensitive. Our door has a bit of a wiggle, when the wind blows the door moves slightly, it set the alarm off several times. I returned it. But yes it works worth any motion on the door, in or out.
