So currently I am looking for a decent hardwire/wireless alarm system that supports x10 modules so my lights can be set to go on if a sensor is tripped. In the meantime, I am debating on putting a motion sensor light inside because I believe this would most likely send a good percentage of intruders right back out the door giving the intrusion was at night or early morning.
One of the things I have always done is close and lock my bedroom door when I go to sleep. If someone does get in, this gives me time to act instead of react seeing the likely entry points are on the opposite side of the house. I live alone so its just me and my dog which I consider family so he stays in the room with me incase something did go down I don't want him getting hurt trying to protect me.
I'm wondering what things you guys here do to help slow down or deter intruders from a home invasion.
