Will it detect motion of gate opening or small dog in range of detector?

It could - any motion it'll go off. It depends on how far the plug in unit is from the unit u put outside.

I have a LARGE dog - and it does go off when I have my dog out on my patio (where I have the unit). I have to block it while he is out there. It is sensitive, but NOT too much so. Haven't had any 'false' rings.

I could not get it to buzz on a regular basis at all. I have had a different brand in the past that worked great but cost more, it finally wore out. This one Would buzz when the wind blew and not when cars or dogs went by. No consistency in it's operation. I went with another brand and it works great.

Yes, this is a motion sensor alarm. It will probably pick up motion from your dog, unless you set it high enough that it doesn't cover the area all the way to the floor.I don't have any pets, so I can't say for sure, but I believe it will sense the body heat and motion of your dog.Hope this helps you.

yes the motion detector is sensitive to pets you have to adjust it trial an error

Hi there!The gate is mounted with screws to the door. So, the amount of force needed will depend on the type of material it is mounted to. Like others say, there are other easier ways to break in like windows. It is important to know that the sensor that goes on your pet for entry purposes is universal. So, at night, I do deactivate the outside sensor. I do have an alarm with a motion sensor. So, if someone breaks in, i have time to get ready and welcome the intruder "politely" :o) So, an alarm with a motion sensor would be the best way to deal with your concern. It is sturdy enough to handle accidental impact. Hi there!The gate is mounted with screws to the door. So, the amount of force needed will depend on the type of material it is mounted to.

Yes, this would work fine for that. In addition to the motion detector, use the window/door sensor... Great idea!

I do not have pets therefore it is difficult to give an accurate answer to your question. However the motion sensor is very sensitive to movement. I can imagine a large pet may easily trigger the sensor. I do not know how it would react to small pets near the floor.

Yes. It will constantly tell you which direction your dog is from you and it will tell you how many yards away.

The sensor reacts to metal so anything metal close by will trigger it. If you can put the sensor about 50 feet or so away from the gate you should be ok. I tested mine a few times so it wouldn't picked up street traffic before I installed it. Still loving it.

It will detect/trip on any movement in its field of range. You can adjusted so it will aim high enough not to to cover the floor. Better yet, you can just set the alarm in "HOME" setting , just like if you're home , then the motion detector becomes inactive, just your contact alarm.

It's not that loud to use. But not sure how an animal might react up close. There is not trigger or reverse, but a dial at the back to adjust speed.

No it is not a motion detector. You can however add 2 more transmitters to it. The indicator light will show which transmitter is going off. This way you will know what door your company is at. Hope this helps you. I am very pleased with mine.

Yes. But it may prove annoying as, if the dog is in and out constantly, it would be going off each time as it is sensitive to motion. If the dog is housed and infrquentlly goes in and out of the door it would be fine, I think.

I am not sure how it detects motion , i think it detects sudden changes in light intensity . I have it mounted in the garage facing garage door and about 18 feet away from it and it was detecting motion through the little garage door glass opening. Motion sensitivity is adjustable .

I'd estimate that it detects movement about 10 feet away. I have it installed over the door and it lights up when i'm about 10 feet from the door.

It works great for detecting motion in a narrow beam out from the unit, so if you place it such that the perp has to cross the "beam" to get to your door, then it will work for you. I don't know how it holds up outdoors but I've been using in indoors for over a year to catch a sleepwalker and it works great.

Unfortunately the unit has a motion sensor so it will detect any movement including the two legged kind. I would suggest setting up the unit at the foot of the property close the sidewalk or flowerbed facing towards the house. Then you have to remember its there or you will end up getting wet if you forget to turn the water off when you go to do the gardening ... lol.

Yes. It would monitor any movement in the room. We have it on the porch and it even monitors a bird flying by.
