Contact sensors

Hi all Apologies in advance for the newbie question. Is it normal to get window contact sensors on all window openings upstairs in a 2 story house? I'm assuming so as intruders no doubt have access to ladders! But then again I'd imagine the vast number of break ins are on the ground floor.

In the vast majority of cases only accessible windows are covered with the back up of PIR sensors.
