Secure Your Home for Under $100: Getting Started with Kangaroo
Think securing your home means breaking the bank or signing lengthy, expensive contracts? Think again! Protecting your living space and gaining peace of mind doesn't have to cost a fortune. With Kangaroo Home Security, getting started with reliable, smart security for under $100 is not just possible – it's simple.
Whether you live in an apartment, dorm, or house, basic security is essential. But traditional systems often come with high upfront costs, mandatory professional installation, and inflexible contracts. Kangaroo was designed to be different: affordable, easy to install yourself, and completely flexible.
This guide will show you exactly how you can build a foundational Kangaroo security system for less than a hundred dollars.
Why Does Home Security Seem So Expensive?
Many traditional security companies bundle equipment costs, installation fees, and long-term monitoring contracts together, leading to high initial and ongoing expenses. They often push complex systems with features you might not need, driving up the price. This leaves many people feeling like effective security is out of reach financially.
Kangaroo's Approach: Affordable & Accessible Security
Kangaroo breaks down these barriers with a focus on:
Affordability: We offer high-quality devices at accessible price points.
DIY Installation: Our products are designed for easy, tool-free setup in minutes. No installation fees!
No Contracts: You own your equipment outright. Choose optional monitoring plans (including free options!) without long-term commitments.
Scalability: Start with the basics and easily add more devices later as your budget or needs grow.
What Security Can You Get for Under $100 with Kangaroo?
Getting essential protection for under $100 is straightforward. Here are a couple of common starting points (prices are illustrative and subject to change – always check current pricing):
Scenario 1: The Apartment Essentials Kit
Perfect for securing the main entry points of a smaller space.
Kangaroo Motion + Entry Sensor (Example: ~$30): This versatile sensor detects motion and when a door or window is opened or closed. Place it on your front door.
Kangaroo Siren + Keypad (Example: ~$60): Control your system easily and add a loud deterrent. Arm/disarm with a code or key fobs, and the siren alerts you (and potentially neighbors) to intrusions.
Total Estimated Cost: ~$90
What this covers: Your main entry point is monitored for opening and motion, and you have an audible alarm and easy system control.
Scenario 2: Multi-Point Entry Monitoring
Ideal if you want to cover a front and back door or a key window.
2 x Kangaroo Motion + Entry Sensors (Example: ~$30 each = $60): Place one on the front door and one on a back door or vulnerable window.
Kangaroo Chime (Example: ~$20): Get audible alerts inside your home when a sensor is triggered (even if your phone isn't handy).
Total Estimated Cost: ~$80
What this covers: Monitors two key entry points and provides an audible chime notification within your home. You'd primarily use the app to arm/disarm.
(Note: These are examples. You can mix and match individual sensors like Door/Window Sensors or Motion Sensors based on current pricing and promotions to create your ideal sub-$100 kit. Check the Kangaroo website for current bundles and individual device costs.)
How Easy is the Setup?
Seriously easy!
Download the App: Get the Kangaroo Security app on your smartphone.
Pair Devices: Follow the simple in-app instructions. Usually involves scanning a QR code or pressing a button on the device.

Connect: Ensure the devices connect to your home Wi-Fi via the app.
That's it! You can typically have your basic system up and running in under 15 minutes.
Beyond the $100 Budget: Scaling Your System
