they'll probably sort it when it goes in the repair / replacement of the gearbox ?

I'm just a loon with cartoon avatar... If they are tying to bum you thousands for fire alarms & access controls, I'd explore a plan b of a phoenix of the co. to a new legal status & in time new premises goodluck

you soletrader or guarantor for the rent / lease ? or ltd co. ?

The loop runs though the building, might be very easy to chop & change it to do your bit or might have been a new loop card & long run back the controls... Again a repeater might have be very easy to chop & change it to do your bit or might have needed a card & long run back the controls... I suspect 4k will be the cost of the works + a margin for centre, 10%, 100% who know's ? Has the job been done on sunday night at triple the labour cost? I don't know, If possible speak to the other units to see if they've been bum raped for 4k I expect you'll be able to negotiate it down, however I'd assume will be using the large LPC type of co. rather than somebody small & local ?

10 devices + controls £2250.00+vat, I assume there also alarm be sounders..... but I've not costed for these, nor for containment, or access equipment Many moons ago I did 12 systems in a shopping centre tenant to provide there own system & pay to connect to the centers, connection was £300 per system payable in advance most paid cash on the day, engineer had around £1500 in his pocket for 2hrs work...

Say you want a mid sized van.. You can buy Renault with a Renault engine or a Nissan with a Renault engine or a Vauxhall with a Renault engine or a Fiat with a Renault engine or a Mercedes with a Renault engine If you not keen on Renault... There's a Peugeot, Citroen, Fiat, Toyota & a Ford with PSA engines If you don't really don't want french, either do your homework or go VW ?

SD1+GJD make me think its a hous & the 1313 + surge purge say either problem site or the last controls went "puff" in a storm?

Not very helpful, why have you got a property or home with no codes to the alarm ? Personally I think you'd be better calling a co. however we'd only be interested in replacing the controls, but we should be able to retaining the other devices

werido... welcome to TSI

I'll loose on at least every 5 yrs

did you hear the rattle of salad bowl too ? or was that ronie's packing up...

I'm seeing a boiler suit with bell bottoms ? Arf the size...

they've not been made for yrs, new old stock / used stuff appears on ebay

Left school , didn't fancy college Wanted an apprenticeship at telephones or the regional electricity co. (3 places 100's of applicants ) Had choice of couple of YTS placements, did "electronic serving" & got basic nvq ended up labouring for my dad & was silly enough to stop....

final exit circuit on door(s) & PIR on entry route, thats how it was done when I was young, keen & slim(er)

nope, it old old tat

your 20 odd yr old controls doesn't do that you've the choice of changing the wiring or change the controls,

R28 might need the pin braying back in if it's misfiring If it been dropped the body might need squeezing together with a vice if splaying out where the pin is The instructions say to oil them but I've never bothered

May I extend my sincere condolences... Welcome to TSI

does every circuit work... does the system work when the mains power is off, does the bell ring when the panel is completely powered down do you have a 20min cut off timer in the external box or does it ring for 3hrs+ ?

"Trade" can dearer, there's a credit a/c's & branch to pay for.....

You want set of controls for £150.00 ? Less vat thats £125, Materials would cost me £65+vat I'd expect an employee to cost 1/2 a day & transport Can't afford to do it.

its 30yr old, maybe retain the wiring & put rest goes in the bin.

You gonna gob that big hole up which may allow a fire to penetrate the stair case ?

every change of tenancy requires an electrical inspection, every cert will document the the no. of mains powered smoke detectors, IIRC battery only complies with the some recent landlord regs but not with the building reg ?
