When it comes to protecting your home or business, security shouldn’t start at the front door. The best security systems detect potential intruders before they have the opportunity to enter your property.
Ajax outdoor security offers an advanced approach to security, combining intelligent motion detection, sophisticated sensor technology, photo verification and wireless communication to provide an additional layer of protection around your property.
With a range of specialised Ajax outdoor security detectors, including the Ajax MotionProtect Outdoor, Ajax DualCurtain Outdoor, Ajax MotionCam Outdoor and Ajax MotionCam Outdoor HighMount, there are solutions to suit different property layouts, security requirements and installation environments.
Whether you’re protecting a family home, driveway, backyard, commercial premises, warehouse or business perimeter, Ajax outdoor security protection can help provide early warning of suspicious activity.
Let’s take a closer look at the four key devices and how they can help secure your property.
The Ajax MotionProtect Outdoor is designed to provide reliable outdoor motion detection and act as the first line of defence around your property.


Using two independent PIR motion sensors and intelligent software algorithms, MotionProtect Outdoor analyses movement to help distinguish genuine human activity from environmental interference.
This is particularly important outdoors, where moving trees, plants, animals and changing weather conditions can potentially trigger conventional motion detectors.
With an adjustable detection range of approximately 3–15 metres, MotionProtect Outdoor is ideal for monitoring outdoor areas such as driveways, side access paths, yards, gardens and external building approaches.
It provides an excellent solution for property owners who want reliable outdoor intrusion detection without necessarily requiring photographic verification.
Sometimes you don’t need to monitor an entire outdoor area. Instead, you need to protect specific access points and boundaries.
This is where the Ajax DualCurtain Outdoor really stands out.

DualCurtain Outdoor is a specialised wireless outdoor curtain motion detector designed to protect specific areas such as windows, doors, fences, building facades and external walkways.
Unlike traditional motion detectors that monitor a wider area, DualCurtain Outdoor creates narrow detection zones on both sides of the device.
It effectively provides two independent detection zones from a single detector.
DualCurtain Outdoor is particularly useful for:
One of its biggest advantages is that it can protect specific external access points without constantly detecting people moving around other parts of the property.
For example, you could have people enjoying their backyard while the system monitors vulnerable windows and external access points.
Knowing that movement has been detected is one thing. Knowing what caused the alarm is another.
The Ajax MotionCam Outdoor takes Ajax outdoor security to another level by combining intelligent motion detection with built-in photographic verification.

When the detector identifies movement and triggers an alarm, it captures a series of photographs and sends them to the Ajax app.
This allows property owners and authorised security personnel to visually assess what has happened without needing to immediately attend the property.
Imagine you’re away on holiday and receive an outdoor security alarm notification.
Instead of wondering whether the alarm was caused by an intruder, an animal or environmental movement, you can open the Ajax app and view the photographs captured by the detector.
This provides valuable visual information and allows you to make a more informed decision about what action to take.
For businesses, photo verification can also help security monitoring operators assess alarm events and determine whether further investigation is required.
MotionCam Outdoor is particularly suitable for:
It offers an excellent combination of outdoor intrusion detection and added peace of mind.
For properties with higher mounting requirements, the Ajax MotionCam Outdoor HighMount provides another specialised Ajax outdoor security solution.
Designed for installation at heights of approximately 2–4 metres, MotionCam Outdoor HighMount is ideal for locations where conventional outdoor motion detectors may not be the most suitable option.
It combines motion detection with photographic verification, allowing users to receive visual information when an alarm event occurs.
The HighMount model also incorporates PIR and K-band microwave detection technology to help distinguish genuine movement from potential infrared interference.
MotionCam Outdoor HighMount is particularly useful for:
The higher mounting position can also be useful where detectors need to be positioned above everyday activity or in locations where a standard low-mounted detector may be less practical.
Importantly, correct installation and configuration are essential to achieving the best detection performance.
Each Ajax outdoor detector has a specific purpose. Choosing the right device depends on the area being protected and the type of detection required.
| Ajax Device | Main Purpose | Key Advantage |
|---|---|---|
| MotionProtect Outdoor | General outdoor motion detection | Intelligent detection and anti-masking |
| DualCurtain Outdoor | Perimeter and access-point protection | Two independent narrow detection zones |
| MotionCam Outdoor | Outdoor motion detection | Photographic alarm verification |
| MotionCam Outdoor HighMount | Elevated outdoor protection | Photo verification with high-mount installation |
One of the biggest advantages of the Ajax alarm ecosystem is that these detectors can be incorporated into a wider security system.
Rather than relying on one detector to protect everything, a professionally designed system can use different devices to protect different areas of your property.
For example, a residential property could incorporate:
These devices communicate with a compatible Ajax hub, allowing users to manage their security system through the Ajax mobile application.
Depending on the configuration, users can receive alarm notifications, view photographic verification, monitor system status and manage security settings remotely.
Ajax has developed a comprehensive wireless security ecosystem designed to combine convenience, intelligent detection and reliable communication.
Some of the key advantages include:
1. Early Intrusion Detection
Outdoor detectors provide an additional layer of security by identifying potential intruders before they reach the building.
2. Reduced False Alarms
Advanced sensor technology and intelligent software help distinguish genuine movement from environmental interference.
3. Visual Alarm Verification
Compatible MotionCam devices provide photographs that help users understand what has triggered an alarm.
4. Wireless Installation
Ajax wireless technology can simplify installation and reduce the need for extensive cabling.
5. Smart App Control
The Ajax application provides convenient access to notifications, system status and supported device functions.
6. Flexible Security Design
Different outdoor detectors can be combined to create a security solution tailored to the property’s individual requirements.
Outdoor security is an important part of any comprehensive alarm system. By detecting potential threats before they reach your doors and windows, you can add another valuable layer of protection to your home or business.
Whether you need general outdoor motion detection, precise perimeter protection, photographic alarm verification or elevated outdoor detection, Ajax offers a range of solutions to suit different security requirements.
The MotionProtect Outdoor, DualCurtain Outdoor, MotionCam Outdoor and MotionCam Outdoor HighMount each offer unique advantages, and when correctly selected and professionally installed, they can work together to create a powerful outdoor security solution.
