   This group looks like people that can understand what I need. The following   
   post was posted in a security site and the responses I got were not very   
   helpful and not cheap. Can you electronics nerds help me? (And I mean nerds in   
   a positive, appreciative    
   way.)   
   I know most of these posts are high tech cameras, systems, wifi and internet   
   connected systems but maybe you can help me with a much simpler setup? I will   
   be renting out my house but storing some personal, not high value stuff in the   
   walk in basement/   
   cellar. I don't want to pay subscriptions or have to pay for internet service.   
   The basement will have just 1 outside door, no other entry, no windows.    
   I just want to have a setup with a door switch and proximity sensor that will   
   set off a loud alarm/siren if someone opens and/or enters through the door. I   
   would like it so raise holy hell for 5 minutes then if all is restored, reset   
   itself. Of course I    
   will have an off/on key so the property manager can gain access. All of this I   
   can do but need to know how to do the 5 minute part. Suggestions? And if you   
   are going to suggest internet connected setup, reread the post.
