    Im wondering where you could purchase individual devices, I think they use magnets, that you can fit to your window, and they sound an alarm if someone tries to break in through the window. I dont want a whole alarm system/nor monitored system, just stand alone devices that would alert you to an intruder. Could anyone help?

    Maplins, Argos, B&Q and Woodies would all be worth having a look in, I reckon they all have Web sites anyway so that should help.

    Not a great way of protecting your home but diy shops have these.
    Try woodies and the likes.

    The likes of Amazon would have packs of them. Search for window and door chimes.

    Very basic. A better alternative is to invest in a system that has to conform to a standard. Not like a DIY alarm.
