Package theft had 25.9 million victims in America. 30% of us have had a package stolen from our home. We created the patented Package Guard, a simple to install, inexpensive solution to help slow down the thieves. It gives you guaranteed real time alerts when packages arrive, can be secured on your front porch and when a package is removed by someone not in your Safe Circle then a 100 Db (very loud) alarm is set off.
Answer: Not likely. You can secure the device to your porch or something on your porch. Secondly, if the device is picked up the alarm will still be activated, with or without packages on top of it.
Answer: No, The result would be the same as in Indiana Jones, remember what happened. Even the slightest change in weight will trigger the alarm to go off.
Answer: Yes it will sound if you take one or any of the packages off the stack of packages.
Answer: It can be attached to your porch or delivery area. We have provided a cable that attaches to the bottom of the Package Guard that you can use to attach it to your porch or something on your porch. This will make it that much harder for a thief to try and steal the device or the packages and the device simultaneously.
Answer: We have systems in place so a cat or other animal can’t activate it by walking on it or by someone stepping on it accidentally. We can’t say here because we don’t want to thieves to know but the object will have to be sitting on the device for a period of time.
Answer: No, only the person who registered the device will be able to use it. Once you submit your email, home address and phone number you would need those credentials to set it up at another house. You can reset it if you decide to give it away to your relatives and get the next version.
Answer: The alarm will sound since a package was removed.
Answer: It can hold up to 200 lbs or 90 kg “That is a whole lot of package!” and as little as 1 lb or 500 grams.
Answer: Currently we have that set at 1 lb or 450 grams but we are still evaluating the correct activation weight.
Our product is built around protecting your home. The more Package Guard’s we sell, the more we donate, our goal this year is to donate $10,000 to people living in shelters so they can have a home to protect. And as we grow, our giving will continue to grow with us. One Package Guard purchased = One Dollar donated. We even have special days that we will multiply our donation by 10 to support our communities.
“A Frisbee sized disc that might look low-tech, but it’s actually a connected package portal that sends an alert to your phone whenever a delivery arrives at your door.” Jennifer Jolly Oct 2016
“With more deliveries this year than ever before, smart technology like Package Guard is ensuring those precious gifts make it into the right hands during the holidays.” Jo Ling Kent Nov 2016
At about the size of a Frisbee, (11.75 in or 30 cm) the Package Guard is a Wi-Fi enabled device that is simple to setup in less than 5 minutes. The Package Guard is battery operated and will last up to 6 months before replacing the batteries.
The Package Guard automatically notifies you and your neighbor if you like via email, app notification, or text when each of your packages have been delivered or removed (hopefully not stolen) from your porch.
If a package thief (aka “porch pirate”) removes a package or the Package Guard without disarming it with the app, it triggers its loud internal alarm/siren. Also, it can be attached to your porch or an object on your porch.
