External protection with output links to a speech dialler linked to phone showing location via camera and also linked to floodlights ..

Back in the day a chastity belt would have done the job

Is it there to sense movement?


Catch question ! ...   not a pir, just a beam that detects any break in it ...    :D

 

All finally installed  and tested now ...   cables buried, hidden or painted and just a few technical snagging points to iron out when it’s been up and running for a few days.  Seems to work a treat ...  trigger, phone pings and a video clip pops up of 5 seconds before and after the event  ...  if during darkness the floodlights come on too.   
 

Couple of pics,  one attached to a tree and one on the side of a shed ...  with a bit of olive drab paint on the conduit ...

Fair play mate, I’m glad you found time to go to your second home to set up security :ph34r:

Do you live with the Queen or something? Got a lot of land? I genuinely have no idea but would be jealous if you had a lot of land. I would love to have a lot of space but the missus doesnt want to live in more farm roomy land. Sigh.

Bugger my secrets out !! ...   I am the Queen ...  and I’ve been a lifelong City fan ..   not even Phil and the kids know !
 

Was helping a neighbour (who does own a few acres) and wanted his security beefing up ..   so got a couple of friends involved and did it for him ...  one was a security engineer, one was a sparky, ..   and one dug out channels for the cables, pinned them to the wall, drilled through walls and fished the cabling into the house ...    I’ll let you guess which one I was ...   :D

 

Oh ! ...   and I posted a few clever arse comments on here that I’d asked the security bloke about to show off to @Strokes cus I know that’s his line of work ...   :thumbup:     Keeps me amused ! ...

Were you the photographer? :)

 

 

Nice, i enjoy doing projects like that. I work in IT /Healthcare IT  with a math background but have always been interested in fixing things, building and gardening. Get it from my dad he was a machinist/tool and die worker and we built everything at home to perfection. Him and his micrometer and tools. It's not easy work at all but there is something about doing a "mans" job (as my dad would say). Pride? Ah well, nice job and good on you for helping out a neighbour!
