I would get an alarm system before cameras. Both would be best.

The problem with cameras is that it doesn't do much to stop it. They don't always work great to even identify a person. If they have a mask on, no way. If they don't it is still hard. Even getting a plate number can be hard. At best you might know the type of vehicle that showed up. We have tons of cameras at work, they certainly help but they are by no means a solve all. I would focus on an instant alarm system and better locks and doors.

Are you insured? hope so

Talk to your insurance, see if they have suggestions. It is a reach but maybe they woudl even offset some of the cost.

Game cameras for hunting are good. A little expensive though if you need more then 1 or 2. You can down load then on your computer. They even shoot video. Watch out, they may steal them. I lost one to someone who took it off an elk wallow. Respectable people.

My aunt and uncle use those little voice monitors for babies rooms for their detatched garage. Not sure how far they would go though. There has to be some better wireless units that will travel that far. Then when you hear them out stealing your crap you can run out through the rhubarb and shoot them with a shot gun loaded with epson salt.

While we would all like to shoot people stealing our $hit, the law isn't going to side with you on this. Unless the person/thief is posing a PHYSICAL threat to you or your family, shooting them in ANY form can result in a valid lawsuite. If you use LETHAL force to stop someone from stealing physical property, you will lose this battle in court every single time. So just saying, I wouldn't do that.

Yea, plus they might shoot back. All your shiz together might not be worth that. Not saying don't do something just be prepared for anything if the your plan is to confront them. F'ing thieves.

One of my riding buddies owned a bar and lived in a house behind it. He had a baby monitor in the bar, couple hours after closing up he heard a ruckus in the bar. Called the sheriff then grabbed a rifle and went to investigate.
Deputy showed up and also went into the bar to investigate. Long story short, the deputy shot and killed my friend.
The ruckus was just a guy passed out in the can, woke up and was looking for a way out. sad story but it happened.
Not sure what the moral of this story is just think it through and be careful.

Actually, depending on which state you reside, The 'Castle Law' says that you can use any force, deadly or otherwise, to protect yourself and your possessions. Someone steals 2 quads from me, the 3rd time their going home in an ambulance..

Maybe I should just move to CO and start a thief business and hire a good lawyer....Somebody is in my garage stealling my personal belongings I am going to beat them right to the point where they have to be brought back from the bright light. How can you prove that they don't intend to do harm to you or your family at that given time? They gave up their rights when they broke into my garage to steal my crap. What good is a camera going to do? Then you and the police can sit and watch over and over again the cute little video of deadbeats taking your stuff, hours after they have gone. Someone enters my home that is a whole different story. There will be no words exchanged. Just me or my wife holding an recently emptied 357 sig.
