What budget solutions do you know to protect an apartment in the absence of owners?

Question

CCTV

Of particular interest are the following devices (unless, of course, they exist in nature):
1) A sensor that responds to the opening of the front door. And, of course, so that he can somehow inform about this, for example, via SMS or e-mail.
2) Cameras with night vision and possibly motion sensors. Also with notification and with the possibility of remote viewing.
It is desirable that all this can work without connecting to a computer, ideally only connecting to a network / wifi router.

Answer 1

Why not conclude an agreement with private security or private security companies?
The first cost quite a bit, about 2000 a year. But just a little - brave guys with machine guns in 5 minutes at the door of the apartment.

Answer 2

Of the most budget options, for some reason I immediately think about a couple of hungry vipers in the apartment :)
But seriously, there are inexpensive GSM signaling, something around 6000r. price and with 8 sensors included, which can be attached to windows, doors, etc. When the sensor is triggered, the alarm itself can send SMS to the owner or call the security service and play an audio message. Alas, this is all without cameras.
After carefully googling for 30 seconds, I discovered the existence of such devices as MMS GSM cameras.
That is, having stuffed the apartment with such equipment, we get a complete orientation to the owner's mobile phone.

Answer 3

There is a "3G Mobile Camera" from Megafon, "Surveyed House" from Beeline, or you can buy a similar gadget on ebay - choose to your taste, color and wallet.

Answer 4

How budget-friendly do you need?
For video surveillance, look at this: http://www.ivideon.ru/ they sell cameras that work without connecting to a computer - directly with their servers.
The opening sensor can be bungled from an arduino, a Hall sensor and a magnet, for example. Arduino can be taught to send SMS without using a computer (with a mobile phone connection: lukjanow.ru , completely offline: jt5.ru/ ).

Answer 5

WIRELESS APARTMENT SMS ALARM MT9000

Answer 6

If you find an old C45 or A55 / C55 seed, then flash SimPage into it - the cost of such a used carcass, depending on the condition, is no more than $20. The opening circuit is connected directly to the body (any sensors working for opening can be connected in series in the circuit). When the phone is put into alarm mode, then when the circuit is opened, it either calls or sends an SMS to a given number. I have one in the garage, and my parents in the country (both made from A55).
