al-yeti Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 How about the old fashioned closed loop wound though it so,if the wire is broken the alarm goes off. We had to do some aircon units years ago because the first lot got stolen. Keep it simple. This has been done with many things , even wall tamper micro switchs , and a sounder hidden in close proximity to what you protecting, find engineer willing to make something up for you if you can't do it Quote
aissecur Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 Hi, how about using a Optex VX402 REC external detector.. It is a very stable optex external PIR with a voice recording facility to frighten the bejesus out of any little blighters attempting to take your dish... You could mount the unit to the least physically accessable side of the dish & bracket off the wall with unistrut cantilever arms and face it sidways on to the dish (which would hopefully reduce false activations from any Cats).. You could connect it to your Risco CPX panel or just rely on the voice output from the unit to scare away any would be theives.. Just a thought for you to consider... Quote

datadiffusion Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 If you use this on a domestic property I would standby to be sued out of your home. Quote So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands
sixwheeledbeast Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 If you use this on a domestic property I would standby to be sued out of your home. If installed correctly with appropriate signage, I would yes. You have a duty of care to anybody that enters your property, so there is potential you could be liable if someone is injured while trespassing. However, if someone is climbing over an 8ft wall or fence to gain entry to your property I would that is beyond accidental trespassing and you have a right to protect your property. Local authorities have the right to ask you to remove razor or barbed wire if it's in an area which they feel could cause injury, normally when installed adjacent public access and footpaths, in some cases even if it conforms to Section 164 of the Highways Act 1980. On the other hand there have been court cases where the council has ordered wire to be removed and the homeowner has been allowed to keep it. In essence avoid or use other methods if at all possible, if you do install keep within the guidelines of the Highways Act above, make sure it is clearly signed on the wire and on the fence, that it is installed completely on your side of the fence, that it is high enough for general ramblers not to get injured (8ft or higher). Even after all that be prepared to defend yourself in court, if someone was injured under the Occupiers' Liability Act 1984. Quote
