I'm buying a Yale Wireless Alarm System.
It comes with 2 PIR's and 2 Door Sensors.
The layout of my house is as follows
3 Bed Semi Detached with a Garage Extension.
Entry Points are
1) Front Door
2) Lounge Window (Front)
3) Patio Door (Back)
4) Kitchen Door (Back)
5) Kitchen Window (Back)
6) Garage Extension Window (Front)
7) Garage Extension Window (Back)
8) Upstairs Landing Window (Side)
The front of the house is facing the main road, so is pretty safe. We have good quality doors (handle goes up to give those extra bolts) and windows (lockable)
My main concern would be entry through the back, in particular the garage extension window, and possibly the upstairs landing window which can be accessed from the garage roof.
I'm getting a fob, and perhaps some extra sensors and door sensors but not sure exactly how best to set it up.
Any advise would be appreciated.
What I thought would be to put the window/door sensors on the back Kitchen window and garage window. Have one sensor covering the garage extension room, and one at the top of the stairs, facing down.
It would most likely be if someone were to get in, it would be through the extension, and then they would head upstairs.
Looking to get this installed tonight, once I pick it up from Homebase today.
