An ADT system is about a grand.

the signage for them, is about 5 bucks -- does the same thing theoretically.

Years back, my parents house in Connecticut was robbed, there was a pretty high powered alarm on the house, that was turned on. Did no good whatsoever -- from the time the alarm goes off, the alarm company will call the house, if they get no answer -- then they summon the cops... Theives have a good 5 - 7 minutes in the house with time for a getaway. Professional thieves, that's all the time they need. (Cops were at my parents house, by their records 6 1/2 minutes after the alarm company called -- the thieves were long gone)

If it was teenagers, the signage will be enough to deter them. (IMHO, anyhow)
