Driveway Alerts Are Perfect Outdoor Motion Detectors For Your Boat

I have received an increase in calls lately looking for a simple motion system that can easily be placed on a flybridge or in a cockpit and notify onboard boat owners of a boarding. Naturally these callers are looking into marine alarms to resolve their specific need, however after talking with some of them, the systems I offer are more sophisticated than what they are looking for.

If you are looking for such a system you can find what you are looking for in the arena of "driveway alert motion detectors." The detectors themselves are in weatherproof enclosures and can withstand the outdoor environment they will be used in. They are wireless with long range radios in them and can be mounted anywhere. The receiver is plugged in down below and will warn you of motion in the remote motion detectors area of protection when armed. They can even report motion on the dock if placed there.

One of my favorite units is the "Reporter". (pictured above) If you have continuous shore power or an inverter for AC power while at anchor, this is a great product. You can read more about it and purchase one at The Home Security Store.

If you don't have AC power and want a battery oporated detector and receiver, look at the various available system options on the Home Security Store driveway alert page.

You can easily wire in a siren, powerd by your 12 vdc system to add a loud warning to your motion system.

Of course nothing matches the protection, supervisory and monitoring features your vessel would get from the Marine Security Systems we carry at MarineGuardSecurity.com but if your looking for a simple solution for an onboard alert system, the driveway alerts are perfect for the marine environment.
