But 50v won't do any good as a deterrent, even 30 years ago. It's possible that the initiator of the voltage (e.g. a battery) was 50 v but this voltage would have to be stepped up to something useful.

Didn't say that Harry (and I'll refrain from calling *you* names like idiot). Read my post again. I suggested the OP may live in a country where defending your property is both legal and necessary. Of course, its unlikely since this is a UK newsgroup and no-one from outside the UK would post here just like no-one here would post on a non-UK newsgroup. I also suggested we live in a state that is becoming more and more hamstrung by laws telling us what we can't do, especially with our own property. Ask Tony Martin if he thinks the law allows you to defend your own property. I hope you are never in the position of having to decide whether a scumbag can just take your property and get off scott-free, or whether he should be prevented and suffer some serious consequences.
I think you should read my post again, unless you have killed, or seriously injured an innocent person through the use of a potentially lethal 'security' device, in which case, the use of the term idiot should be the least of your worries.
I want to connect electricity to the garage door. Help
To run an electric extension cord through a closed garage door, you could follow these steps:
Tools you may need: drill, conduit, conduit connector, weatherstripping or silicone caulk.
Keep in mind that this is a DIY solution, if the garage door is in regular use it may not be a safe option and if you are unsure or don't feel comfortable with electrical work it is best to seek the help of a professional electrician.
