Back Yard

Back yard is about 3m by 6m. The 3m side has a double french window and the 6m house side has two dual sliding sash windows. Opposite the 3m side is a 6ft tall wall about 5m long.

 

I am now wondering if I could protect the yard from intruders with either an outdoor PIR (say Takex MS-12FE) or maybe a beam (say Takex PB-30TK). Which do people think would be most suitable (if any)?. Thanks.

What are you planning on doing if the zone goes into alarm?

Beam

The opinions I express are mine and are usually correct!

(Except when I'm wrong)(which I'm not)

yes a beam would be less supsepable to fa's imo, but, as above it depends on what you want to achieve when the detection trips.

Thanks. I was planning on tripping a full alarm if it is set. Bad idea?. Access to the area involves unlocking a door or going over a 6 foot wall, nobody's going to accidentally wander in. Cats do get in occasionally...

Beams but full alarm is a bad idea imo, better with a local sounder and some lighting perhaps for 5 mins?
