datadiffusion Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) I think as long as you are aware of the huge limitations of a bells-only system, that's fine. However, if I had penny for everytime I heard 'I'm sure the neighbours will look out for us' but also for every time they 'didn't hear a thing' after the event...

datadiffusion Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Yeah I wouldn't want a window cleaner that throws themselves at the windows, must be bad for business. Quote So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands
breff Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Fit the keypad outside of the cupboard and put a contact on the cupboard door Quote The opinions I express are mine and are usually correct! (Except when I'm wrong)(which I'm not)
datadiffusion Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Agreed. Sounds like that is what he is going to do. I would add to include a bolt on the door esp. if it is a thin 'wardrobe' type effort. Quote So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands
freshr Posted January 30, 2015 Author Posted January 30, 2015 Great, I'll take that advice. Thanks all. I just want to give the local "opportunists" some difficulty. If Ocean's 11 comes along, I'm stuffed. Quote
Rulland Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 At the end of the day it's a deterent, anyone who wants in, will get in, hit and run, they'll grab what they can quickly, this is more likely to be a problem in a property that is secluded from others, gives them more time, best we can do is hope they'll go somewhere else that hasn't got a sounder/bellbox outside, even with a 'monitored' system there is still that 'timeslot' unfortunately, and the tossers know that.

sixwheeledbeast Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 That type of attack may effect a poorly designed wireless system. With a wired system the removing the Hold Off will trigger the bell on an attack. Quote
