Online alarm clock for 10:13 pm
As the outgoing guard finishes up and heads home, a 10:13 pm alarm can mark the moment the next guard shift takes over. It keeps the handover tied to an exact time without making anyone wait for 11:00 pm. That leaves the final part of the evening available for signing off, gathering belongings and leaving the site.
Because the guard on duty may close the browser while clearing the desk, the alarm page needs to remain open and the phone or computer must stay awake. Otherwise, the alarm will not sound for the guard shift. With the page still active, the set time stays visible for a quick check during the handover, and the volume should be tested before attention moves to keys, logs or the gate.
Once the departing guard steps outside at 10:13 pm, the air may feel quite different from the controlled conditions indoors. Australian evenings can still be warm, while humidity can make the walk to the car or station feel close and sticky. A light outer layer that is easy to carry suits changing air, and a bottle of water left with personal belongings avoids another trip inside after the handover.
Common questions
Do I need to create an account or download anything?
No, there's nothing to sign up for and nothing to install. Pick a time and a sound, press Start, and it runs entirely in this browser tab.
Can I change the alarm sound?
Yes, there's a short list of tones to choose from before you press Start. Pick whichever one you're most likely to actually hear — softer sounds are easier to sleep through than a firm chime or bell.
What happens once the alarm goes off?
It rings through your device's speakers on a loop until you stop it from this page. There's no separate app notification, so make sure your volume is turned up before you rely on it.
Is this alarm accurate across daylight saving time?
It uses your device's local clock, so as long as your computer's time and date settings are correct, it'll adjust automatically when daylight saving time starts or ends.
