Best security This applies just as well with bikes as it does cars.

A baby monitor's a good cheap way to hear if anyone's breaking in to your garage. You could also get a cheap PIR alarm from B&Q.

I use one of these. A lot of businesses use these on main gates and shutters so they are quite good. You really do get what you pay for with padlocks, i wouldn't even bother using anything under £50.

If you have a house alarm it's usually possible to put a couple of additional PIR's in the garage and hook them up to the main house alarm.
