Simplisafe install no monitoring, no internet, but wifi router

Can simplisafe be used at my remote shop without cameras, no monitoring and no internet, just a local wifi router. Will the door sensors be able to connect to the base station and sound the siren when opened?

Hi @basewingrepair ,

If we're talking just the following components:

  • Entry Sensor
  • Motion Sensor
  • Glassbreak Sensor
  • Water Sensor
  • Temperature Sensor
  • 2-in-1 Smoke & CO Detector
  • Keypad
  • Panic Button
  • Key Fob
  • Wireless Siren

All of these components are able to communicate via local RF only. So you won't even need WiFi or the SimpliSafe app to set up - everything can be done through your Keypad.

We do strongly recommend setting up at a location where there's WiFi, because Base Station updates require WiFi. But other than that, yes. The full system can function as a local siren-only alarm system for your shop location.

Keep in mind that if you do want to use the SimplISafe app to manage your system, you'll need WiFi for that piece.
