Re: [SERIOUS] How to detect if a door is opened or not ?

Thanks...
But even if I'm opening the door, the method is executed. I mean, how to check if the string is not pulled out (before I open the door) 
Because, when anyone opens the door, the string is pulled out !

That's a good idea. But I don't have a webcam (only planning to buy)and I can't trust the electric power supply. Because, when a small wind blows, the power will be cut-off And the UPS won't allow more than 10 min backup
