Abstract

A system for the detecting and alarming of unauthorized access to an enclosure is herein disclosed. Sensors mounted within the door and/or motion sensors provide a wireless signal to a centralized control panel that activates an alarm when armed. The alarm provides visual and aural indication of an intrusion within the enclosure and transmits a signal to a remote base unit via telemetry, and a Global Positioning System (GPS) may provide the location of the alarm to the base unit for subsequent dispatch of security personnel if the enclosure is in transport.
