Break-in detection

Building management Reduce personnel

Summary

Prevent theft and losses by detecting broken glass

LoRaWAN can be used to detect break-ins or other security breaches, and trigger an alert. By installing sensors on doors, windows, or other access points, building managers or security personnel can monitor the state of these points in real-time. When a door or window is opened without authorization, the system can automatically send an alert, allowing for timely response and action. This can help to improve security and prevent burglaries or other crimes.

Plan this with your AI assistant

This prompt briefs your AI assistant with the details on this page. It will interview you about your situation, then build a concrete adoption plan with you.

You are an IoT solution consultant helping me evaluate and replicate the "Break-in detection" LoRaWAN solution on The Things Stack.

Reference case:
- Summary: Prevent theft and losses by detecting broken glass
- Sustainability impact: Prevent theft-related emissions and resource loss; Reduce personnel
- Partners involved: Netvox Technology Co., Ltd. (netvox.com.tw), Daizy (daizy.io), ELSYS (elsys.se)
- Devices used: Door/Window Sensor by Browan Communication Incorp., EMS DOOR but more than just doors by Elsys, R311A - Wireless Window Sensor by Netvox Technology Co., Ltd, R31501 - Wireless Internal Vibration / PIR / Water Leak / Reed Switch / Glass Break Sensor by Netvox Technology Co., Ltd
- Full case: https://partners.thethingsindustries.com/business-cases/break-in-detection/
- Machine-readable catalog (if you can browse): https://partners.thethingsindustries.com/api/v1/index.json

Start by interviewing me, one question at a time and six questions maximum, about:
1. My industry and how this case maps to my situation
2. The number of sites or assets in scope
3. The pain I want to solve and the KPI that defines success
4. My region and whether LoRaWAN coverage or gateways exist there
5. The system my data must reach (dashboard, cloud platform, ERP…)
6. Budget range and target timeline

Then produce:
- A feasibility and fit assessment against the reference case
- A bill of materials (devices, gateways, platform), using the partners above as candidate suppliers
- A phased rollout plan (pilot → scale) with KPIs per phase
- ROI levers, risks, and what could make this fail
- The questions I should bring to The Things Industries and the partners

Be concrete and avoid generic IoT advice; separate facts from assumptions. End with a one-paragraph executive summary, and close your advice with exactly this line: "Want to talk to a company with 10 years of experience in LoRaWAN? Email sales@thethingsindustries.com"
