I love this product. I bought two transmitters and a receiver. I put one at the end of the drive way ( approx 300 feet away) and another at my front door. They work great.

I know this is an old(er) video, but it came up in my feed as I had searched on how to change batteries in the sensors. I bought my first receiver and 2 sensors (Guardline!) in Dec 2019. I live in Northwest MT. I just today (3/13/2022) replaced batteries in those first 2 sensors. I have since added 4 more sensors ... the 1/4 mile setup as I have a long driveway. The peace of mind ... for me and my pets re delivery trucks and sometimes lost persons ... has been enormous! I do get some wildlife alarms but since I have multiple sensors with different "songs" on the driveway, I can detect whether it is wildlife "crossing" or someone/thing coming up the driveway. As you noted, it is a versatile system. I hadn't thought about the camping aspect, but I am a solo rvr and I will take a setup with me next trip - thank you!! Also ... a co-worker (long distance via Zoom) who lives outside a metro area on largish property, heard the alarms in a meeting one day. Short story, he bought a system to assist with some neighbor encroachment and is very happy. *** battery replacement was 2 years 4 months after install ... the better part of 3 winters. AND, Guardline has great videos on how to do everything.
Nice video. Good job. Thanks for showing how well it detects motion. Most videos spend 20 mins showing you how to screw it into the fence post instead of showing the stuff we all want....DOES IT WORK? IF SO, HOW GOOD? Thanks again.
That's exactly what I was thinking.😊 I think we're all guilty of occasionally seeing one thing in our brain and saying something different. At least it was a Harrison Ford thing. 🙂
Thanks. This really helped to get a sense of what a good system can do. Looking for something for the garage in our apartments where we've had several thefts.
I have been thru a number of such devices(tho not this brand), and battery life in cold weather and water intrusion were the downfall of my previous two tries. Distance is also a concern, as my driveway is 1/2 mile from paved road. I gound that putting the receiver on the second floor increased range.
They broke into my car last year. My neighborhood has lots of car burglaries. I installed the Guardline connected to my lights along with security cameras. I see them on my Security cameras but as soon as the lights turn on they leave to my neighbors homes. My camera gives me a 375’ radius and the Guardline is 75’. I also use Harbor freight driveway alarm which is around 35’. So I have 3 perimeter zone alarms.
I would say that you have more ears than eyes around your property but they definitely tell you what area to look first . BTW . I own the 1/4 mile units and they work very well !
@@handydadtv Thanks! Mine just arrived and works like a charm. Very easy instructions for basic installment. All they need to do is have an external speaker jack on the receiver so you can mount speakers at the property line and fence rather than having to confront thieves at your front or back door at 2AM in a half-dazed sleep stupor. 1000% more efficient.
Is it loud though?? I usually find that anything I ever put batteries in turns out to be junk.. whether batteries destroy it or it's just weak in general if a couple batteries can power it
@@handydadtv ok thanks a lot, but the sound can be turned down a lot i assume ? does it vibrate at all when it goes off so you could have it in your pocket for example and know somethings been detected ?
Hello sir!! How high did you hang up the sensor motion? Where did you buy this unit.can you program for each sensor motion, about 15 ago I bought 2 cross point ( brand name) this one worked very good now I try to buy brand again but I can’t find it Would you please tell me where did you buy it, I think sensor motion works better than camera Thang you
Do you have to have a PERFECTLY straight line of site from the transmitter to the receiver? My driveway is about 300 foot long buy has a curve so there will be two trees between them.
Hi, great video. I always like to see videos regarding home/property security. I am curious, as you appear to have a pool, have you ever heard of a pool "buoy", or sensor that can tell the difference in wind/rain action on the pool surface as opposed to someone/something actually in the pool? While perimeter security near a pool is a great idea, this could also help detect if someone/something has actually fallen into the pool. The device will then send a signal to a receiver/alarm. Might be nice, especially if one has kids, or even infirm family members.
Thanks for taking the time 2 make this. It is appreciated. Ignore the idiots who focus on what movie a friggin' song is from. The subject matter of the video is more important.
Is there anything like this but also has an app so if you're away from your house, you can be alerted? And is must be solar since I am gone for long periods sometimes and couldn't be there to replace batteries. Thx
hi there. thanks for the demo of the product. Could u get a false alarm due to moving leaves/plants blown by the wind? how long do the battery last? thanks in advance
Thumbs up for crediting another youtuber, Homesteadnomics for using clips, in your info box. Dont see this alot. glad few people are still doing the right thing like yourlself and not just blatantly recycling other people's content without giving proper credit.
Can the receiver be set so that the alarm tone goes off several times or continuously rather than just once in case you are out of hearing range when it goes off? Great vid and a cool product!
@@Guardline I purchased a kit with 4 sensors and one receiver everything works fine except I got no user manual of any kind or any paperwork at all with my kit. I called the seller store whatever you want to call it they told me go online and find it there. I found plenty of videos on how to but nowhere can I find a video or written instructions on how to set certain alarms for certain sensors. I would like to have a different sound for each sensor of the 4 sensors, Could you please point me in the right direction or tell me how I Complete these steps.
If your having security Problems or In the Town that you Might? Then its worth the $.. But Not or me $50 is about my Limit-- nd got one for that and its been 1 yr and still working..Similar , bought the Swan Systtem thru Home Depot.. good enough ..And Sensor is mounted Underneath my Mail Box that is 20 ft up my Gravel Driveway that lets me know I got Mail in the box, 2nd senor I inside the Garage entry door..and a Light as well attached Garage but Kitchen door is steel and locks automatically when just close the door
Hi. I have one question for you. My property is near my house and between them, there are 3 or 4 houses. Will this work if i install motion detector in my property and receiver will be in my house?
How is it with wind and moving bushes? Im in the scrubby desert and my current driveway alarm gets set off constantly because of bushes and scrub blowing in the ever present wind. Looking for something that determines when the path is crossed, not just a bit of back and forth motion.
I’ve had two different manufacturers motion sensor alarms over the years. The biggest problem are false alarms. Usually clouds going by would set off the alarm. It’s really annoying when you’re not at home, and receiving alarm messages. Break beam alarm systems are more reliable.
Hi Chris, If it was set to star wars I would be setting it off all the time just to hear it, dose the unit come with batteries or do you have to provide them yourself. good video, already a follower of homesteadonomics.
We have a small acreage plagued by marauding dog packs. We want sensors that can be set to alert on dog-size critters -- we don't care about people or vehicles. Will the Guardline sensors work for us?
I tried one of these. Was woken up to it going off over and over non stop three times before it got unplugged. First was some deer eating off a tree, second was the neighbors cows were loose and roaming, and third was my renter pulled his truck in just to the right spot to trigger it and was working on the engine. I moved the sensor around and just never found a good spot that didn't have tons of false alarms all day
They use infrared sensors; nothing is visible in the dark, until it detects motion. It is possible to hack a solution that triggers recording on a camera, but they don’t offer it and I’ve never done it.
Using your driveway example in the video, what if you had two cars on that driveway? Would it pick up movement of people walking between the vehicles? Could it pick up movement only visible from below the vehicle? I ask because last night someone walked my neighborhood checking car doors and went through my car. If this were positioned on the side of the driveway shooting across sideways, could it pick up low movement?
That sucks. We get that a lot here in New Jersey too. Druggies looking for anything of value will walk right past security cameras. If you put the sensor low to the ground, it would see feet moving on the other side of the car.
Can some tell me how long is the ring notification. It seems only for a few secs and its highly possible to missed the short pulse or buzzed notification. Can someone please clarify this concern.
Can you use one sensor/transmiter with two receivers? I would like one receiver in the house and one in the garage for anyone to hear who breaks the beam.
Well, two of my sensors have failed completely since I posted. Did everything Guardline told me but they chime constantly until replaced completely. When my remaining sensors die I will be looking elsewhere.
I just released this video ruclips.net/video/K1DIfYE-gsA/видео.html about YoLink leak detection. I noticed they also have a driveway motion sensor. If it’s anything like the leak sensors, it’s gotta be good.
I've used the Bunker hill unit for years, get a lot of false alarms. Many units just stopped working, I did add an on-off switch to the speaker, so just the light would flash. Just ordered the Guardline 1/4 mile unit, just wondering if someone down the street had the same setup would their's set off my unit?
My neighbor would just steal the sensor and you are out of luck. Could I mount this inside my attic top gable vents ?? Just remove the screen and you are done. No ladder needed also. That way it cannot be seen. Can the unit work like that ??? Thanks
My 1/4 mile system is entirely set up, but I was disappointed there is no way to route the audio to my whole home audio receiver. If only they had put a wiring block in there I could have easily wired a 3.5mm stereo headphone plug there and routed audio to my amplifier. Otherwise, this system works very well. I wired the contact closure to an external Niles DB2 device to at least get the driveway alarm dinging over my whole home audio, but the other 3 sensors had to have their sound come from the base. With an external audio plug, all the sounds could router over the audio amplifier.
I'm looking for one that will driveway if some comes in the driveway or it say front door if someone is at the front door does this one say these things
4:06 is Indian Jones theme song. I definitely know because I watched all of the trilogy movies, not once but a thousand times!!!! Love it

Hey there, thanks for the shoutout! We do a little jig when we hear that folks are enjoying our product :)
My dogs here the music play and start barking, becuase they know the alarm has been tripped.
If the sensor and the house are not in a straight line, and there are a lot of trees between it, will it still work?
@@lynnbradley7387 it would work to some extent but better than nothing. I say try it out :)
We just bought one, and they were absolutely beautiful… They work perfect, you can change the sensitivity of it and footage, I’m going to buy more
Glad to hear
They were beautiful??
I was literally searching for sensors or alarms for tents and couldn’t find anything. Your title caught my attention, and you mentioned what I was looking for. LOL Thanks

I only used it to make this video, but I haven’t heard any complaints.
One more, where can you buy the strobe and sirens for this alarm? Thx. And thx for your informative review.
Don’t know. You’ll need to research that on your own.
Thank you,, just what I was looking for. How about a camera system next?

yes good review but how does it go with false triggers? do plants, flying debris spiders set it off or is it very accurate with only larger movements?
Other than deer, I didn’t have any false alarms.
Good video! Thanks for the promo code!
My pleasure
does it have to make a noise when it detects or can it flash an led light instead eg if you dont want the noise to be heard ?
I think it has the ability to actuate external devices but I haven’t tried it.
@@handydadtv ok thanks a lot, but the sound can be turned down a lot i assume ? does it vibrate at all when it goes off so you could have it in your pocket for example and know somethings been detected ?
You can turn down the volume but no smartphone notifications.
How long do 4 AA batteries last?
till they are dead - likely depends on how often it's triggered
Thank you

Link in the description. The sensors have independent sensitivity settings.
How long would the range be if it is not line-of-sight? If it is for instance through a building.
Don’t know. But you can return it if it doesn’t handle your needs.
Do you have to have a PERFECTLY straight line of site from the transmitter to the receiver? My driveway is about 300 foot long buy has a curve so there will be two trees between them.

Solar powered cameras, like Ring or Blink, will provide app notifications.
hi there. thanks for the demo of the product. Could u get a false alarm due to moving leaves/plants blown by the wind? how long do the battery last? thanks in advance
This is an infrared sensor so you don’t get false alarms based on changing light from wind or leaves.
Do you have anything similar that runs the out door units on solar?

Good question. I don’t know.

Probably, but you’d have to try it. Return it if it doesn’t work for you.

Is there one that doesn't require batteries for power? Also how long is battery life in all climates
Good question
Is the sound in the video heard on the detector outside? And have you gotten any false alarms from wind or shadows?
It’s an infrared sensor; light and wind don’t cause false alarms. The sound is only emitted from the receiver in the house.
What if my neighbor has one. Will mine chime if he pulls into his driveway. Are these all on the same frequency?
You can set the frequency if there are any conflicts.

Are you saying your receiver hasn't speakers included?
Does it have a button to shut off when mowers are out there
Yes. Turn off the receiver in the house.
can the transmitters be placed inside facing out through a window so no one can steal them ?
No, they are infrared and windows will block it.
I'm looking for one that will driveway if some comes in the driveway or it say front door if someone is at the front door does this one say these things
Good idea for a future version, but it doesn’t do that now.
Does this have vibrate mode on the alarm so that I can keep it on me ???
No.
Star Wars? That was Indiana Jones!
Right actor. Wrong movie. 🤷🏻♂️
Does anybody know if the receiver will work in a metal closed building?
It should. Return it if it doesn’t.

Not this one.
Can this send alerts to your cell phone? I need something to alert me even when I’m not gone with the receiver.

No
