Bell Box Resilience

[GJS]

I've heard that a common way to bypass an alarm is to fill the bell box with expanding foam. Is there a defence against this apart from putting the boxes in inaccessible positions?

Thanks.

That was the old fashioned big box with a siren inside. You can't foam the modern type as the sound comes out the back.

foam is still used thee are "counter measures" but its vare rarrly done on a house

You don't use foam on a modern box - it dribbles down the back. This was proven 15 years ago when it first started. What you do do is know where to aim your battery drill.

You must think every crook is as thick as you are. If they can hot wire a car they can drill a bluddy hole.

Just whallop the box with a big hammer, pull away from the wall and stick it in a five season sleeping bag! - just hope they don't have redcare (oh, hello officer) - I love redcare btw, especially when I get it disabled properly through BT and plod turn up anyway....
