Line crossing set at all boundary’s sounds extreme but it works to a degree.
Line crossing? PIR's or some sort of sensor either side of the boundary?

No but in my line of work I see a lot of attempted an allso successful robberies.. there are 2 regular types in my opinion stress my opinion .

1 the little scummy kids out for joyride
Usual targets are your weekend motor and or track day cars limited security ! Surprisingly clever client had a car stolen recently the one night it wasn’t on his ramp !!! (Watching)

2 the gangland style stolen to order boys
the type who throw a brick thru your bifold doors an take what they want they usually visit befor taking the motor. (rare) but getting more common. Usually back door but have seen front doors with crowbar damage . Buy a rock or composite door !

My set up

I have Cctv , alarms , motion tracking Ptz ,with number plate recognition . Line crossing set at all boundary’s sounds extreme but it works to a degree. Failing that

I allso have concealed roller shutters to my bifold doors an french doors total 4 at 22 gauge. Allso to the garage all windows are 6 Minuite vandal proof. ( my opinion all windows should be this as standard now a days )
At the end of the day you dont want to be the slowest swimmer as the sharks eat them first. Use that one at work. sorry for the rant and grammar at work
Something gives me the impression you're protecting yourself from something other than car theft scratchchin

All built into the DVR/NVR on 90% of any Cctv system bit of a dark art to set up without getting lots of nuisance notification . On plus side makes you look popular !! Can be set on timer from after you leave / return to the premsise

Has anyone experienced the zero vision?
Right side or wrong side, either is fine. Just want to know how effective it is rather than seeing an edited advert for it.

Maybe I should run a Ssangyong Musso and relax. No need to worry about it getting stolen.

I love watching the purge films but somehow it would seem so out of place here.

You'd need an awful lot of them to fill up the 'outside'.

Genuine question, do cats and/or foxes not just set off the trip wire?

No problems. Trial an error really we usually reduce sensitivity so that it only pics up objects of a set size. tripping the line crossing and linger in one area for a set time Combining the two usually reduces nuisance triggers dramatically. While giving you secure system unless fox takes paticular interest in your motor. I’ve got big barn owl sits on the games room roof looks demonic in infra-red

Your first post sounded like you were hard as nails. Calling the general public soft and encouraging them to do boxing lessons etc.

It turns out in reality you’re hiding behind thousands of pounds worth of security. You don’t like confrontation with a criminal as much as the next guy.

You’re just as soft as everyone else you claim are too.
