I can only go based on my experience. This lot soon naffed off when they got lit up……without cameras and lights there would have been another court case for a householder seriously injuring a burglar. Safer for all parties I feel.
You say that, but I’ve got footage of 3 masked men doing an about turn once they saw the house and cameras all light up. The numpties who broke in before I had decent security just had their phone, which oddly plod weren’t that interested in.
That could be an option, in a bizarre stroke of luck all the lights have gone where I wanted them while retaining all the trigger locations I wanted to cover. Doing it that was still leaves me with the question of which lights to fit alongside an external PIT? I’ve had multiple sour experiences...

Thanks for the replies, regards to the boundary lines, I’m am on just under an acre of land so thankfully have no issues there.

Hi all, as you can likely see I am newbie on here. I am a very confident DIY’er, having previously spent several years on the tools.
I am currently in the early stages of a garage/workshop build. I have (in my mind) the design I want. In simple terms the block work footprint will be roughly...
