Recommend me a garage alarm.
 

Why? Because tonight a likely lad came marching up the drive and right into the garage, looking for any scrap metal I might want him to "recycle" for me.

He was very interested in looking at the bikes and the big red tool cabinet. :(

I hunted him but I now have a lingering feeling that the ****'s coming back. Might just be paranoid, but still...

So I thought I'd get a nice loud alarm for the garage but not one of those "all in one" jobs that you just need to smack with a hammer.

So, what you got?

My brothers got a bloody vicious Alsatian you can borrow for the night Loves ****s...for breakfast/lunch/dinner/snacks.


Other than that I'm no help. Sorry.

wired into the house alarm with a 140db alarm (commercial smoke alarm sounders are also good).

Booby trap with a couple of high power hilti nail guns or flash grenades

edit: Fenjer's idea of a extremely grumpy dog is very good.
Ask YC I think he's arming the shed of mayhem

This might give them a bit of a fright

I have one of those Yale cordless ones from B&Q. The Siren alarm siren box is mounted on the house rather than the garage out of reach. There is a magentic sensor on the garage door, and a PIR sensor on the back wall covering the whole garage.
