Madhav Mahajan asked "Please make door alarm" and "Electric door lock ". I haven't got around to the door lock yet, but here is the alarm. To be honest it would be cheaper to buy one as I can get a twin pack in the bargain store for £1 which is less than it cost me to put the parts together for this circuit.

I did a quick Google search for suitable circuits and combined 2 that I found to get the result I was looking for. I have just found this YouTube video that gives some useful and very clear guidance on the 555 timer for making sounds with a very similar circuit. https://youtu.be/OUwGC35vX50

I will add my video to my Electronic projects playlist
