Burglar Alarms for Shooting Club

Our Rod and Gun Club has been broken into 3 times in the last 2 years. So far they have not done any vandalism, just stolen things. Last 2 break ins have the same MO. Cut the padlocks or crawl through a window, steal gas , gas cans, propane heater, kerosene heaters, motor oil etc. Our club is out in the country, no Wi-Fi or even good cell service, but lots of deer and critters. Our neighbors are 1/2 mile away. We are upgrading our dusk to dawn lighting, adding motion lighting, installing dead bolts, bars to windows and would like to install a siren or horn that has motion, door and window activation. We think motion lights and a siren or horn of 200 db. would deter entry. Ring and ADT are out of the question, no Wi-Fi or cell. Have been researching DIY burglar alarms. Anybody with some firsthand experience???
Look into Star Link.
 
take turns having a member be dropped off so no vehicles are present every evening. My nephew is on the Response Team at the local prison. He suggests the 12 gauge Rock Salt loads. Aim at their ankles.

"No Wi-Fi or even good cell service" Above will work.

This will not.......
An alarm notification to police may help, lf cops are not on other calls of a higher priority.
Alarms are on the bottom of the list and only work if system notifies police directly.

Alarm companies that call police are useless. They may even give cops the wrong address.

Cell phone antennas and amplifiers are readily available, and as one poster mentioned a lot of times a text will go when a call will not.
 
Set out a pack of cigs, some skanky beer on the table. Drill a hole in the table and run a line down to a discretely located Sabre OC grenade. Its even better if you leave the small window conveneintly unlocked but closed, and put the OC recessed in a hidey hole aiming out of the wall near the window. Said dirt bag then has to try to exit the way he came in, everything else being locked like fort knox. And has to run right at the OC grenade.
The video will can be used at every annual meeting during intermission. Sell popcorn to offset the loss of the beer and cigs.
Anyone with any creative genius can rig up a spring loaded pin that can depress a relaese on a fogger OC when the string pulls the release on the spring.
The key here is no injury, no tort.
