Guardline Extra Sensor for Original Driveway Alarm

This is a must have product - it gives piece of mind if someone goes anywhere near my work van, or even walking up towards our front door - especially at night.

This product is fantastic. The best around and worth the money. Installed one in the garden after a break in a couple of years ago. Just bought another for INSIDE a garage (away from the house). Wasn’t sure if it would detect but works perfectly. Very very happy.

Overall, very good driveway alarm for the money. Packaging: Well packaged, everything is organized neatly and padded appropriately. Quick start guide is on top making getting started, easy. Instructions: Straight forward, put the batteries in both the sensor and receiver, units are paired from the factory but you can re-pair if you want to change the melody (which I did). Only takes a few moments. Installation: 4 screws attach the sensor to any non-metallic surface. We put ours on the fence post at the start of the driveway about 200 feet away. The receiver plugs into a regular wall socket and also has a battery backup option (AAA batteries required). Operation: Works as intended. Walk or drive past the sensor and the receiver will chime or play the melody you selected at pairing. I tested up to approximately 250 feet and it didn't miss a beat. There is a short reset delay (7 seconds I believe), which will prevent the sensor from sending signals in rapid succession; it will wait 7 seconds before activating the melody again. This model is far superior to the original model this company sold which advertised a 1000' range and barely worked at 100'. Kudos to the company for upgrading the unit transmission strength. Would be curious if this unit works at a quarter mile unobstructed. I didn't test that far. Longevity: It's been outside in the rain, sun, wind and frost so far. A few false alarms on very windy days but its an IR sensor so leaves and debris will trip the beam. I've had my unit for about 2 weeks and am very happy with it. No signs of leaking, cracking, fading, damage of any sort. Sensor integrity is good. Support: Company responded to emails in a prompt manner. Phone support offered too. Bottom Line: If you want a reliable driveway alarm at a moderate price point, this is a unit for you. I didn't want to run wire, drill holes and get overly involved with installation. Very happy and you'll likely be too.

Utiliser pour détecter intrusion sur mon terrain suite à un vol

I have been using the Guardline system for over 5 years. I have 2 receivers ( one for upstairs and one for downstairs) and 4 sensors. The 2 receivers and 4 detectors works together and is in synch with each other. Only had a few problems over the years. Customer service was great when there was a issue. Inside the sensor you can adjust the senistivety of motion and distance, also a reset button. Several years ago had high humity issues and the alarm continue to go off. So I took it apart and let it air dry in the house for a few days. Then I put a small moisture absorber inside the sensor (ex. The ones you can find in pill bottles, vitamins,etc). As a extra precaution I used plumbers thread tape on the backing of case. Also I use package tape to cover the screw holes to prevent Dirt filling the holes either by insects or time. Had the holes pack like a dirt dobber before. No issues since I did these extra steps. Batteries last a long time , change out probably about once a year or a little longer. I use Duracell. I have the brown sensors. 2 sensors are at least 300 feet from house, one at 25 feet and one sensor at backdoor. Detect motion at least 100 feet. On most sensitive setting the wind blowing a flower can cause a false alarm . Adjust the angle to avoid plants or put sensor in better location or adjust the senistivety. This product provides a great sense of security when someone or a animal comes onto your area of concern. I use this system with a camera system. So when guardline gives alarms I can look at the camera for visual. A complete package.
