I would say that yes do do need a motion sensor. If you rely only on contact sensors then if they fail for whatever reason then you have no protection. If you have a motion sensor as well then you have protection in depth.

Your Contact-Sensors forms a good perimeter on your doors and windows. But if you are away, the added protection of the Motion-Detector inside will sound the alarm if the intruder enters by breaking a window (without opening and activating the Contact-sensor.
