  1. Normally I'm one of the 1st to welcome new posters on board..... but your ginger!
  2. pipe work marked to bs 1710 orange - 06E51 yes I've just googled it
  3. so far I have watched 15min of the fuck witted porridge wog fit a data cabinet like a 1st week YTS...# Again my life is too short for this....
  4. using my cynical British outlook- The Qolsys 16 looks like some tat from Maplins
  5. Still Rule 1 - 1 Resistor is the tamper value, 1 resistor is the alarm Having 2 alarm values in the circuit won't work Basic Electronics - 2 x 4k7 resistors will make a near a dam it 2k2 resistor
  6. Rule 1 - if you use the wrong value resistors your circuit won't work
  7. a yale / cisa latch (you will need to fit the lock cylinder if its he only entrance) or a surface solenoid bolt is what I probably look to do.
  8. but there's always a trap, doors appear to be made to no recognised standard, apart for the option of a kitemarked euro cylinder ? sort of thing often found on a porta unit... your mag lock will reduce the head of the door & should be in transom if you've not purchased the door & frame, an alloy door with a sash lock & deadlock factory fitted would be my preference
  9. If you can choose a time of day when the sun isn't sun glaring of your shiny fall pipes.... Take pic of the door you wish to secure, (both sides) I'm happy to offer expert advice find some thing else to take the piss out of...
  10. I would have purchased a door with locking system built into it ? Steel door sets are normally a fire doors, or is you premises nr the local crack den ?
  11. Why would you want a surface magent on a new ( I assume) steel door ?
  12. 8 keypads, 5 expander, if you buying in bulk £50 an item
  13. he's quoted you but edited the text for I assume comic effect ? eg-
  14. Oddly I've some europlex branded rkp's in the warehouse 3721w (white) & also 3724 expanders (grey) all BNIB

    wow, If you shaved a monkey & kicked him though screwfix, as long came out wearing a pair of trousers, a pair boots & holding a screwdriver you've got an alarm monkey* * or most other tradesmen

    He assumed I was taking the piss when I said to check the faint beeping from his keypad wasn't the the smoke alarm low battery beep.... He then sulked away, came back on different a/c & then returned on the 1st a/c Pricing, you can ask whatever you want for a job I can help people for free, ask thousands or be some where in the middle of 3 quotes.... which is the normal feedback I get. Normally if the customer is being quoted lots of money for a modest job, either the local conman has been round or honest people are trying their hardest not to win the work, I assume Paul experienced the later

    Glad you back Paul, really did miss you Happened many times, I'm more than happy to send a man & an invoice... but I've always asked people to be certain the beep is coming from the alarm & not smoke alarm. Personally I've had been told there's no smoke alarms in the house only to attend & find a pair still in the packet from B&Q which have being waiting a couple of years for the home owner to fit Found a "Free" British Gas Co3 alarm in roll top desk, beeping with low battery, I also get lots of OAP's complaining about the "Free" battery powered smokes beeping (fitted by the fire brigade) Couple of hundred quid to renew a basic house alarm on the old cables Smoke alarms have a recommend life of 10 yrs, to replace a pair of mains powered smokes cira £100 as booked work
  20. MrHappy replied to Wanna's topic in Guest Forum
    Paul the panel has failed, it cira 30 yrs old If it had been serviced properly it may have lived longer.... However I suspect its probably never got used, as the keypad would have probably given out some yrs ago. Alarms is very odd trade, people are happy to rip out 30yr old block paving but amazed I can't get them a keypad for 30 yrs old alarm...
  21. don't think his bus pass is valid outside the county ?
