Intruder Alarm Advise ... Pleeaasse

[arfur mo]

Gardtec's my preferred panel manufacturer, they tick all the boxes imo.

we all have preferences and are swayed to what suit's us over all, everything has compromises. i have no probs with stirling, just not over keen on the aesthetics.

in the past used their Pyronx's pir's, no issue's either. the rep i think was called Racheal at the time i used them (might be raymond now ) intellegent, well informed and a real cracker to look at, so a pleasure all round to deal with for me - if not her.

although we use gardtec exclusivly and it is available in the public arena its not supported there by the manfacturer and its relativly easy for the o/p to compramise the system without realising

confimation sounders anyone?

if you have to install this yourself i would look at one of the small local electrical shops - they should know all kit needed - its likely to be what they fit themselves and they can answer any questions that arrise as they will during the installation

word of caution who is powering the panel - needs to be certified

Wow, thanks for all the replies and humour

I appreciate what Arfur and KKA mean about neatness etc. I was an electrical & electronic engineer in a previous life .... a long time ago.

I'm not a qualified sparky .... my Dad has one to do all the 'goverened' work.

I'll do some digging on the your suggestions (Texecom and Gardtec) ....

to come up with the 2 main extra features (autodial, wireless keyfobs).

Thanks again.

glad to help so far richard - now dont forget that the alarm install will have its own regulations too it isnt " ungoverned " so you may want to spend some time digging about the site looking at the relevant standards etc before you start the install

let us all know if you have a question when you have decided on the control equipment
