best way to get/install diy 2-PIRs,1-bell(loud),2-keypads,etc

Newbie wanting to install a very basic hard-wire house alarm system with (2) 180deg motion detectors to ring an on premise exterior bell and be able to control from inside entry/s so need a delay.
Please let me know if there is a better place to post this question.
Thank you for your help.

It sounds like you want a small security system. 180 degree coverage motion's aren't as common, most cover a 70 to 90 degree arc. There are ceiling mount versions, however, that will cover a 40ft+ circle (depending on ceiling height).

Check through the FAQ and some of the prior posts. This is a very common question. A lot of your answers depend on ability to follow technical instructions, your budget, and how hard it is to get wiring from point A to point B, in your structure.
