Cheap Door and Window Alarms You Can Take With You No drilling, no landlord permission, and they move with you. Silence is exactly what a burglar is counting on. Read on: it takes a few minutes and could save you a lot more than that. **In this guide you will see:** - No drilling needed. - Siren on opening deters and wakes you. - Portable locks add physical resistance. Quick answer Tenants often cannot change locks or drill holes, and existing rental locks can be weak. Battery door and window alarms stick on or clip in without tools and sound a siren when opened, and portable door locks add a physical barrier. They move with you when you leave.
