Introduction

Wireless sensors are much more difficult to disable unless you're really tech savvy and know how to jam the signal. Unfortunately i can't provide much information on non security alarm peripherals without a more detailed user/installer manual than the one provided on the site

Depends on the alarm's setup, usually they are programmed as "Instant" or "Interior Follower" follower's will instantly go into alarm if an entry delay zone such as a front door, isnt tripped first. However, most alarms will require 2 different zones to go into alarm within roughly 5 mins for a police response instead of security

Check your corners and above doors, motion sensors are mounted in corners 90% of the time to maximize coverage, if you see a red LED blink on what appears to be a motion sensor, be prepared to get the hell out of there, some places may have an alarm with no siren. some sensors can also be ceiling mounted but about 60% of those are for energy saving lights.

Also be on the lookout for little white or black little boxes on doors, those are magnetic reed sensors connected to the alarm, if you open a main point of entry, you may have 30 seconds for an entry delay before the alarm activates. The most common alarms for commercial premises would be from DSC, GE/Interlogix, and Ademco/Honeywell, and I would highly recommend reading the installers manuals for ideas on what the zone programming options are. Lastly, if you can find an alarm keypad, look for green or red lights, green usually means AC power or "Disarmed" (Off) or "Armed" (on), some older alarms may have a light that says "Instant" or "Max" which will trigger an alarm instantly regardless of the entry delay timer. If you can find a yellow "Trouble" light on the keypad, it may mean the phone line is disconnected, but don't rely on that as it may be a different issue. Forgot to mention that wireless motion sensors connected to burglar alarms may not illuminate the alarm indicator (The red LED that indicates it has detected motion), and dual technology motion sensors have "pre-alarm" green and yellow indicators that doesn't mean it has registered an alarm, but that you have tripped one of the two sensors required to trigger an alarm.

What type of realtor box?

If it's a kidde pushbutton lock or a master lock box, you can tension it using your thumb or screwdriver and push on the pins/buttons, if a button doesn't give much resistance then it's not part of the code. The buttons are also not order-specific. If its one of those big blue Supra IBoxes, forget it, those things cannot be opened without a destructive entry, they use bluetooth and special IR remotes to open them.

If caught this equates to a break and enter, not simple trespassing. Main issue with those boxes.

Yes, it would as the CCC states that in order for B&E, there must be an entrance into the property, and there either has to be an indictable offence committed or the "intent" to commit one, meaning the crown could easily say that you were in there to steal. Not a lawyer but this is my understanding.
