pet immune pir - that's for a small dog or cat in your house, not birds in your garage.
A dual detector (pir+microwave) is what you should be looking for
ps
adam_151 - what regs cover this then?
[EN50513/PD6662 but a dueltech will still trigger with birds in a garage
Especially if it's an owl or eagle but I don't think one of them is going to get between the roller door and the ceiling do you? - the odd sparrow should be (will be) ok though!
As for these standards? who is going to be visiting to see if this DIYer has or has not done something correctly or not - no one.
The reference to the regs was for an 'installer'. It was you who associated it to DIY.As for these standards? who is going to be visiting to see if this DIYer has or has not done something correctly or not - no one.

certainly not good practice putting power down the coax like that, even if it does work.
Been putting power down coax for years with psu for masthead amps and distrubution systems etc etc, this system is going to be installed by alarm expert not by me, i was just trying to figure out way without breaking out driveway for 4 core to garage(**** that for a job) so will be connecting red and blue for pwer to 1 coax and yellow and black to other coax, The coax is high quality designed for direct burial so probbably will last years unlike the flimsy 4 core which would rot even if feed through pipe due to sweat rot etc thanks to all who gave info paul.The reference to the regs was for an 'installer'.
