What prevents theft of the sensor?

Hi, If you place the sensor outside, I imagine someone could steal it. We use our's inside as a door chime, the chime goes off when someone enters a door.

It is screwed to the post. But other than that, nothing. Thief needs a tool kit. But it isn't going to work without the other half of the unit that is in the house.

You Attach it to the wall/tree at around 7-8 feet high. So most people can't reach it. It could be possible for someone to steal it if they were determined enough...I painted mine so it blends into the wall and no one notices it.

The Lock ring is only held on by a grub screw that is tighten or loosen with an allen key. Once loosened the sensor can be unscrewed

Remove the sensor from the mount. Twist the back and there it is. There is even an arrow pointing to the lock position.

No nothing comes with the sensor. They were susposed to remove them from selling as they have issues. I returned mine as they didn't work at all.

There are no locks or locking devices on the mount. I would suggest using security head bolts or machine screws to mount it with if you are concerned about theft.

This is a really good question. What is stopping someone from stealing this device? Seriously I would never buy something like this if there isn't some sort of security lock.

you might try padlocks with straight lock pins they come with various size pins. You can't stop a determined thief but you can make not worth the time.

We have two key pads. One for in and one for out plus remotes for each of our cars. There is a sensor available but it is very expensive and in my opinion less secure cause someone could jump our gate and manually trip the sensor opening the gate.

There is no sensor, it is on until you turn it off. I usually let mine run al the time.

The sensor is battery operated, however the battery and all of the electronics are encapsulated and as such not serviceable nor replaceable. The battery does however last several years under normal conditions.

The remote sensor uses the Lithium 2032 "coin" battery. They are readily available.

I have no idea. You would have to contact Amazon or the manufacturer. My feeling is, why not get the sensors? They can't be that much more money and then you'll have extra parts just in case.

I don't know what the others are talking about but if you read the manual it will explain to you how to bypass a sensor or a motion detector. If you have difficulty how to bypass a sensor or a motion detector, you can also call Mile. He will explain to you to do it. Good luck.

I know for a fact it can be but that it is against code virtually everywhere to do that. This should only be an issue if you sell the home or there is an accident the sensors would have stopped. When I sold my house it came up in the inspection report. I had kept the sensors but the buyer also did not want them installed.

Yes sure. Just put down the sensor a little bit, and it catch it. The sensor es very sensitive.

I did reset mine but I probably didn't need to. I also covered the sensor with a piece of tape.

Small outside sensor was included. Mounts on a screw that you place on outside wall
