A “Tamper Alarm” kept going off for my front door. It was because I did a shoddy job wiring it. I have it temporarily fixed up, but I’ll need to soon go in and use proper wire nuts to finish the job. The box you’re seeing in the first photo is the box for the old security system that came with my house. I have some of the sensors wired through it so I can use existing wiring. Most of the stuff in there is not used and is essentially decoy. If someone were to break in and try to rip apart that box, they’d actually end up setting off more alarms and not disabling any.
