Does it have to be connected to a phone line?
Andrew Shipley, Selby
If keypad is connected to a telephone socket, the system will then alert you via telephone when the alarm is triggered. Without this, the alarm would still function as a standard alarm without notifications.

I wanted to know if the 200m range beam is directional. Or is it dependant which way the control panel is facing. Thanks

The 200 metre extended range secures all of your home in a circular radius not just where the hub is facing.

Can you use the door contact on a garage door? The garage is directly next to the wall that the main unit will be connected to so it will be easily within range.
Mr Martin Taylor, YEOVIL
A door contact may be suitable to place on a garage door providing each side of the door contact can be fitted flush and within a 2mm width of each other. An alternative option would be to place a Yale Intruder PIR Motion Detector inside the garage instead.

What motion sensors are suitable for a large dog over 25kg?
Irene Foster, Horley
There are no Pet Friendly sensors that have threshold of larger than 25kg. Anything larger than this size would trigger both standard and Pet Friendly PIR motion sensors. You may prefer to use a Yale Intruder Door Contact on your doors and windows.
