Hi Ken,
Welcome to the forum :grinning:

It looks like that sensor and all the similar PIR sensors that Core Electronics sell tend to have the same detection angle of around 110°.
If you needed 180° coverage you might have to try and set up multiple sensors, having a couple overlapping somewhat may also increase your chances to get a detection.
5 meters range should be well in the operating specifications of all your options.
