Abstract

An alarm system to be used with safes is disclosed. A housing is provided adapted to be mounted to the exterior of a safe, particularly a personal home or business safe. A heat sensor is mounted to a shaft that extends from the housing into the safe. The shaft is designed to pass through a preexisting hole found on many commercial available safes. The heat sensor is electronically linked with a control system adapted to sound an alarm when more than a preselected temperature is sensed at the heat sensor. A motion sensor is also mounted in the housing to sense when more than a preselected amount of motion is sensed in the safe.
