On a lighter note, my brother up in Oreo-Gone lives out in the boondocks and has the same sort of situation. He did the gate approach and blocked of each side of it with some donated boulders to prevent drive around technique. Had to coordinate with the fire, sheriff and game warden guys as far as getting proper master keyed set up so they could access in emergency.

Another thing is a driveway chime. It's movement and IR sensing. And does the ♪ ding dong ♪ inside your house. Gives you time to put your boots on.
My one in the garage got a motorbike thief 18 months in jail LOL |

I have a mailbox chime that sounds and leaves an alert light on in the house if the mailman delivers.
Saves me from putting clothes on...only to find no mail.

A long private road/driveway like some have just need a gate ... once entered .... no turn-arounds, etc. are typical.
There is no substitute! "Private" - .... that can't mean me .... evidently ![]() I went down one two weeks ago ... being nosey. Musta been a 3 mile round trip .... a dirt driveway in my youth. "Toady" used to live down there .... next to our family farm. Now one of his relatives does.... I'd just tell them I was an "xxxxx" and we would have chatted .... didn't see a soul .... Waved at relatives on the way out .... they don't know my white F150... but they wuz watching .... country neighbors ![]() I waved bigly....

Yours would be a stupidly dangerous solution to what is likely a perceived problem
If I drive down your road after dark, for whatever reason might find me there, and have my tires punctured by your poorly-considered diy spike strip, you should count yourself among the fortunate if I don't then complete a trip to your place on foot. _

Got a setup of 3 that make 3 different tones so i can tell how far in a vehicle/person has gotten past the NO TREPASSING signs. Animals set them off regularly after dark. My buddy has a sign that says THERE IS NOTHING ON THIS PROPERTY WORTH YOUR LIFE..... Good points made here.

What excuses have you heard from the people who trespassed? Just wondering.

Spike strips use hollow spikes to let the air out of the tire slowly. If you use regular nails there is a good chance the air might not leave the tire and would not have the effect you are looking for and as mentioned might be a problem if someone gets injured. Why not some sort of beam alarm that you can place on each side of the road that when broken sets off an alert on your phone. You van set it a little higher to avoid small animals setting it off? Or a guard tower with an armed guard might work as well

Can I ask why you think you need this?
Or are you just messing with us?
