Instant Alerts Where You Need Them: Kangaroo Motion & Entry Sensors
Knowing what’s happening at home – especially when you’re not there – is more important than ever. The slightest unexpected sound or movement can trigger a wave of anxiety. What if you could have immediate, reliable information about crucial events in your home, sent directly to your smartphone? With Kangaroo's Motion and Entry Sensors, that peace of mind is precisely what you get: instant alerts, right where you need them.
These sensors are key components of your Kangaroo Home Security system, designed to detect activity at important points in your home and notify you in real-time.
The Core Function: What Are Motion & Entry Sensors?
Before diving into how the instant alerts work, let's quickly cover what these essential devices do:
Kangaroo Entry Sensors: These compact, two-piece sensors are your first line of defense. Placed on doors, windows, cabinets, or anything that opens and closes, they immediately detect when that connection is broken (i.e., when something is opened).
Kangaroo Motion Sensors: These sensors monitor a broader area for movement. When armed, they detect the presence of a person (or a larger pet) moving within their range, providing coverage for rooms, hallways, or specific zones.
Together, they form a foundational layer of security. As experts at sources like the Electronic Security Association often note, a comprehensive security strategy involves multiple layers, and perimeter (entry) and interior (motion) detection are fundamental.
The Kangaroo Advantage: Instant Alerts, No Fuss
Knowing that something happened is one thing; knowing immediately is another. This is where Kangaroo excels.
Lightning-Fast Notifications: The moment your armed Entry Sensor detects a door opening, or your Motion Sensor picks up unexpected movement, the Kangaroo system acts quickly. An alert is instantly pushed to your smartphone via the intuitive Kangaroo App. No more wondering – you’ll know.
Alerts Where You Need Them: Strategic placement is key. Entry Sensors are perfect for all accessible doors and ground-floor windows. Motion Sensors can cover living rooms, basements, or hallways leading to bedrooms. You decide what’s critical to monitor, ensuring alerts are relevant and actionable.
Effortless DIY Setup: True to the Kangaroo promise, both Motion and Entry Sensors are incredibly easy to install. No wires, no tools, no technicians. Just peel, stick, and connect to the app in minutes. This simplicity means you can secure your home effectively without any complications.
Real-World Protection: Scenarios Where Instant Alerts Matter
Imagine these situations:
Unexpected Entry: You're at work, and your phone buzzes. The Kangaroo app shows your "Front Door Entry Sensor" was triggered. You can immediately check your Kangaroo Security Camera (if you have one) or contact a neighbor.
Window Breach: A notification for "Living Room Window Sensor" alerts you to a potential break-in attempt, allowing you or your professional monitoring service to react swiftly.
Off-Limits Area Accessed: Placed an Entry Sensor on a medicine cabinet, a liquor cabinet, or a room you want to keep children out of? You'll know instantly if it's been opened.
Movement When No One's Home: Your "Living Room Motion Sensor" detects activity while everyone is supposed to be out. This early warning can be crucial.
These instant alerts transform concern into awareness, giving you the power to respond appropriately, whether it's a false alarm (your pet sitter arriving early) or a genuine emergency.
Hear from Real People Who Love Kangaroo Sensors
Great easy to setup - Great product easy setup also fast shipping and curbside pickup - BestBuy
No Motion Undetected - As someone who is super sensitive to motion, I jumped (pun intended) at the chance to buy the Kangaroo Motion + Entry Sensor. I love the size of the device, small enough to fit in a pouch (pun intended). Luckily I haven't had to deal with any unwanted intruders just yet, but I do feel safer knowing who enters and leaves my home. Intruders will ROO the day that they try to break in. - Walmart
Great motion sensor and overall package - Sensor worked very well. It attaches easily to any space and the app works well to give an easy user experience. The packaging was fantastic making it fun to open and exciting to get going - Walmart
Part of a Smarter, Connected System
Kangaroo Motion and Entry Sensors don't just work in isolation. They are integral parts of a customizable and expandable security ecosystem.
Teamwork: Triggered sensors can work in conjunction with other Kangaroo devices. For instance, a motion detection could (depending on your setup and future integrations) trigger a Kangaroo Siren or prompt you to view a live camera feed.
Scalability: Start with a Kangaroo Starter Kit that includes these sensors, and easily add more as your needs grow. Cover every vulnerable point at your own pace.
Professional Monitoring Option: For an added layer of security, alerts from your Motion and Entry Sensors can be routed to our professional monitoring service (with an eligible Kangaroo Monitoring Plan). If you can't respond, they can contact emergency services on your behalf.
