Would you mind telling us how much you pay Pete?
We are with SSIS and pay about £1k for half of what you seem to have. I may be wrong but would like a starting point for next year.
We are with SSIS brokers. Very easy to deal with and we found very competitive for our buildings and contents insurance for the office / stores about 1/2 the price of the local mob.
Ha ha. We always used CQR for a couple of years until we started to get loads of callouts with them going Hi Res.
Moved to knights and had very few problems apart from the magnet dropping out of its glue inside the contact.
It seems like there isn't enough glue to hold it in so we now add a dab of silicone, job done.
Haha we used to put the bell together in the passenger seat of the van on the way to the job to save time, drill out the C type cove for the strobe and everything.
Fitted loads of external Axis cameras and used the SD card as a backup set up on motion only.
As I say the SD is only a backup the NVRs record as well.
Enterprise couldn't get hold of enough of our usual Gardall DT15+ For a job recently so we used the new Honeywell DT what ever it's called.
What a load of cr@p, just tried to order another 25 Gardall DT from enterprise and was told we had a 2 week wait???
Norbain had 115 in stock so we ordered the lot.
When I was last in full time employment I always tried to do 100 hours overtime a month.
Most months I did more, I made a lot of money in the 3 years I was at ADT.
