In ''The Sims'', a burglar alarm will cover an entire room when placed indoors. If placed on an outside wall, it will cover a 5-tile radius.


An easy way to make a house burglar-proof is to build a single wall on both sides of the lot and put a burglar alarm on each; when a burglar enters the lot, the alarms will be set off instantly, resulting in the police being summoned immediately; often before the burglar can even enter the house.

The Sims

In The Sims, a burglar alarm will cover an entire room when placed indoors. If placed on an outside wall, it will cover a 5-tile radius.

An easy way to make a house burglar-proof is to build a single wall on both sides of the lot and put a burglar alarm on each; when a burglar enters the lot, the alarms will be set off instantly, resulting in the police being summoned immediately; often before the burglar can even enter the house.

The Sims 2

In The Sims 2, burglar alarms cannot be placed outside (except by using the moveobjects cheat or by tricking the game), so each room with a door to the outside should have an alarm.

The Sims 3

In The Sims 3 burglar alarms can be placed on any wall of a residential lot, inside or outside. The alarm will sound if a burglar enters through the front door.
