When traveling in a foreign country, peace of mind is a priceless gift. For many women, personal safety is a serious concern and it’s not uncommon to feel most vulnerable whilst alone at night. Especially if one stays in an unfamiliar hotel or hostel in a dodgy area. Regardless of one’s choice of accommodation, feeling safe is essential for a good night’s sleep.

Thanks to ila Security’s brilliant ila WEDGE Doorstop Alarm women can now feel safer when traveling or at home alone. I’ve used it in both hotel rooms and at home. Works perfectly. The pressure sensitive door alarm should be placed at 90 degrees under a closed door. If the door is opened from the outside, the alarm triggers and prevents the door from being pushed opened any further while also emitting a 130dB siren alarm. Enough to scare off any unwanted visitor and alert others.

Ideal for use in hostels, hotels, student residences or at home, the alarm is lightweight, compact and stylish. Fortunately ila takes style as seriously as safety. To see how this innovative device works, check out the video demonstration below:

The alarm is available in a pretty butterfly design from www.handpickedgiftstore.com for $19.95.
