GE Window Alarms August 08, 2020, 09:41:36 pm OK, don't judge me. I don't think I'm fearful, but anything that adds an "extra layer of security" can't be a bad thing. Does anyone have these (or something like this) on their Lazy Daze windows. Since my recent break-in (through the window at the dining booth), at my storage facility I'm *thinking* of purchasing these. Yes, I know if someone wants to break in they'll find a way. However, these have a high pitched alarm and are relatively inexpensive. If you have them (or something like it) please let me know. If you don't, tell me what you think.

Re: GE Window Alarms Reply #5 – August 09, 2020, 09:31:55 pm The easiest way to break into one of these rigs is to use a center punch on the tempered side windows. It breaks into a jillion pieces and you just reach in and open the door. I had one window break without notice or warning. I think it was caused by my landscaper at my office building. He probably threw a rock with a weedwacker and put a nick in the glass. It is sobering to see how easy it is to get into the rig.
Re: GE Window Alarms Reply #6 – August 10, 2020, 09:22:15 am Yes, a dowel in the window track will slow them down.But you folks are ignoring the easy way in - the cab doors. Takes about a minute if you are well-practiced. No noise.You can stop that by using a tie-down strap between the cab door armrests.Best to park in low crime areas.We have parked more than once at rural sheriffs substations and funeral homes which are manned 24/7.High traffic Walmarts have noise annoyance, if not crime. 3 Likes
