Thousands of euros in bikes, behind a single lock.

Yes, up to about 150 metres between sensor and control panel. A garden with a shed at the back is well within that, even with a wall or some vegetation in between. If the building is further away, for example on a large farmyard or on the other side of a meadow, you need the Elite control panel with Elite sensors — that reaches up to 500 metres. Not sure?

Do the maths. One e-bike easily costs two thousand euros these days, and the average shed holds two plus tools. A contact magnet and a motion detector together cost a fraction of that and last for years without a subscription. What's more, the excess on most home contents insurance policies alone is higher than what you spend here — and you still won't get your bike back.

A determined thief who has specifically chosen your shed won't be stopped by this — no alarm system does that. What it does work against is opportunistic theft, and that's by far the largest share. Someone forcing a shed door in the dark who suddenly hears the alarm go off won't finish the job. They want silence and time, and that's exactly what you take away from them. And there's more: you know immediately instead of the next morning, which increases the chance of them getting caught.
