Tools and Hardware Reviews of GE 51107 Smart Home Wireless Alarm System Kit
Customer Review: Alarm doesn't sound with metal door frames
Summary: 1 Stars
I have not been able to make the alarm go off.
I made it learn the access code. It will start or stop flashing when I key it in. But if set the alarm flashing and leave the door open for a minute it never goes off.
I did get it to work in chime mode once on the kitchen table but it has never worked on the door. Hopefully metal in the door frame doesn't cause it to not work.
I called their tech support and they suggested it was broken. If I return and get a new one I'll update.
If you are setting one up and using the tape to affix to the wall I recommend not using the tape until you verify it works.
UPdate: Further testing on kitchen table does seem to indicate door frame is problem.
Customer Review: Awesome product!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've had this for about two weeks now and they work great!! The alarm is very loud and I feel much safer living by myself in my little apartment. I actually put on of the window alarms on my bedroom door so that I could have extra protection while I sleep. It's a great product and absolutely worth the small amount of cost.
Thanks!
Customer Review: Cheap Little Alarm System (CLAS)
Summary: 5 Stars
For the price you pay, there's nothing wrong with this product. You get one door alarm, and three mini alarms that work great on windows. The door alarm needs a pass code, while the mini ones are manually set. Be careful how you set up the magnet for the alarm, because it has to be aligned with the arrow on that particular alarm. If it's not aligned, the alarm doesn't activate. You definitely don't want to set off the door alarm by accident, because it can cause serious ear damage. Other than that, the setup is very quick and easy. Go ahead and try it for yourself!Customer Review: Decent product for the price

Nice product. Alarm is pretty loud for a 2-bedroom apartment. Not sure if the smaller window alarms would be heard in bigger houses. One thing that took me sometime to figure out was - for the bigger unit, you would have to activate the alarm every time it is moved from Chime to Alarm mode. We use the chime mode during the day and the alarm mode during the night and it took me a while to figure out that the alarm had to be activated every night and de-activated every morning. This would help if that wasnt obvious to you.Customer Review: Does anyone know if the windows can be open?
Summary: 3 Stars
does anyone know if you can have the windows open slightly (6") and have the window alarms set so that they will sound if someone tries to open the window further? I ordered this but have not opened the package, as someone else stated, if I break that molded plastic, I bought it!
