Alarming your cabinet

[Three Blades 0]

Has anybody bothered to wire their gun cabinet into the house intruder alarm system ?

I am thinking of doing this as, whilst not totally necessary, I would hope that it would help with relations with the police on inspection for a FAC.

The plan is to simply fit a door contact magnet as per a normal front door.

Due to the lack of solid walls upstairs (timber frame), the cabinet is located downstairs and hence slightly less optimal as far as the police are concerned.

 

I am happy with the mechanical technicalities but wondered if anybody has done this and found it helpful.

surely the alarm would go off prior to anybody reaching the gun cabinet ???????

 

if its fixed properly the FEO will have no problem with it.........and won't expect it to be alarmed.

 

cheers
