Motion DetectorsMotion detectors are the most common and effective way of securing your premises. Placed strategically around your home or business, motion detectors sense movement within their field of view and if something is picked up, your alarm system activates. Motion detectors come in many different styles to suit almost any possible scenario. Some of our more popular options are listed below.

Dual TechOur go-to motion detector. Unlike standard passive infrared (PIR) motion detectors, Dual Technology (Dual Tech) detectors have 2 types of detection device built into them. They incorporate not only a PIR sensor which detects changes in heat patterns in the room but they also use microwave technology, just like a radar. Where invisible beams are projected in the detection area and reflections are analysed as they return to the detector. If a moving mass is detected the microwave sensor is triggered.
The beauty of these detectors is that they need both the PIR and the Microwave sensors to trigger before they will activate an alarm which greatly reduces (almost eliminating) false alarms. |
Pet ImmunePet Immune motion detectors are basically the same as a standard motion detector except they are calibrated to allow pets such as cats or small dogs to roam free throughout your house whist your alarm is armed without the risk of setting it off.

360 degree360 degree motion detectors are a great way to cover the more awkward spaces such as corridors or storerooms that have shelving all round and no place to mount a standard detector. We can even cover large open rooms such as warehouses by using multiple 360 detectors or by combining them with other detector types.
360 degree detectors are available in PIR and Dual Tech versions. |
