Our Window Stick prevented a home invasion, while we were sleeping. |
At 2:44 am on Monday, June 30, 2003 , we were suddenly awakened by the sound of the alarm. Startled, we sat up and saw briefly the beam of a flashlight outside the sliding patio doors next to our bed. My husband called the Police, who brought a police dog. Although it was raining, so the dog was unable to pick up the scent. We discovered that the burglar first opened the screen door; slipped his hand inside and turned off the outside light, then tried to open the sliding door, which set off the alarm. |
tremble when we think of what could have happened if we didn't have the Window Stick Alarm to protect us. We are so glad that we purchased the Window Stick Alarm! Yours truly, Jo anne |
I was cleaning and heard the alarm go off downstairs. |
On investigation I found an intruder had pulled back the screen to the sliding patio door but was unable to enter our home because the patio door was locked. He had also tried standing on a lawn chair to gain access to an overhang near the upstairs window (also secured with Window Stick Alarm). Failing this, he then removed the screen from the downstairs sliding window and attempted to pry it open. This action set off the alarm and he ran off. Thanks to the Window Stick Alarm a robbery was prevented. Sincerely, Malcolm

| Confession of an idiot. |
I had heard about and investigated your new product called the "window stick". What a terrific idea and it came with a battery! I knew a few people who could benefit from installing them. So off I trotted to a local Wal-Mart and I bought a few. One for an elderly friend who had a window which she felt was in a prime location for someone to break in. One for my kitchen window, as it too is in a vulnerable location, and two for my son's home after he had told me about break-ins in his neighbourhood. My son owns a rather large dog which has a very loud, intimidating bark. My son had expressed the opinion that he didn't have to worry about anyone breaking into his home as long as his dog was there. Consequently I didn't feel any urgency to give him his two window sticks. I had bought them prior to his November birthday and could have given them as a birthday gift but no I'd rather "save" them and give them as Christmas gifts. For his birthday I gave him something he would really like. Oh the irony of my thoughts. So I put them "safely in my bedroom closet where no one could see them" along with the one for my kitchen window. Well you've already figured out where this is going!!!! What an idiot I was. On December 4 th, while my son and his lady were out Christmas shopping, two or more people entered my son's house via a bedroom window which faced the backyard. Apparently the dog was no deterrent. They were in the house long enough to enjoy several alcoholic beverages, littering the floor with the empty bottles, while sitting in the comfort of the living room. The house was ransacked and several items were stolen. Some of the items that were stolen are irreplaceable. Some had very personal meaning. Everyone was traumatized. So the moral of the story is "the window stick only works if you actually put the battery in and install the stick in a window trough". This is a confession from someone who had to learn this the hard way. Please don't repeat my folly. Sincerely, Jennifer For the record – Jennifer’s letter was self-titled “confession of an idiot”, we added the clip art. |
