We need to monitor a section of an apartment building. Were only interested
in detecting sound, for example someone breaking into a door. I`m thinking
something like a baby monitor. Anyone know of that sort of thing but maybe a
little more sophisticated. We are only interested in audio not a camera.
Thanks.

Hi,
High gain microphone? Can even detect a pin drop.
But this a sensing part. How are you going to be informed.
A flashing light, beeper? What if prowler is silent type?
Pros can break a window not making much of any noise.

Burglar alarm audio sensor would do the job.

Some are only sensitive to breaking glass as an example

they have glass break sensors. I think they also detect very loud
noises. try homesecuritystore.com or nextalarm.com

I was going to suggest a "barking dog alarm" (google it) but when I looked
on the web, most were motion activated. They used to be sound activated,
look around more than I did and you might find it.
