Opting for a detection/sensor system that will alert my phone via an app and/or sms each time the safe is opened (not going the cctv route).
I got quoted 2.5k for a system by a local security company here for initial installment + on-going costs, seems a bit up there....
Anyone know of any cheaper alternatives?
For reference:
