morph Posted March 13, 2005 Posted March 13, 2005 Good Evening,I have given Dave my full history and he has vetted me and allowed me Trade Access. Dave Marsden Small Alarm Installer North Wales / Chester Area Systems fitted to Houses, Shops and even been to Spain to fit one lol Upto this point mainly used ADE/Texecom but expanding into Gardtec hopefully. Any more info wanted just let me know. Thanks Dave Welcome back to the Forums Dave, but I am a little puzzled here after the great debate last year about you being IN THE TRADE why are you having another company in to install an alarm? Or do you just require a Professional Trade Install and not a DIY Trade Install? As the guys have said seems like the guys are fitting it for not a lot of money, I would check out the small print and the call out charges etc. Colin.
DGMarsden Posted March 13, 2005 Author Posted March 13, 2005 The small print has been checked and there are no call out charges etc or things hidden.
DGMarsden Posted March 21, 2005 Author Posted March 21, 2005 The installation team are coming on wednesday for a site survey so I will keep you posted on what they say. Quick Question : The system is a Galaxy 16plus which obviously uses EOL wiring, will they be able to use existing 4 core cable or does EOL require 6 core? Thanks
norman Posted March 21, 2005 Posted March 21, 2005 4 core will be fine but I would want it all checking for soundness. Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.
DGMarsden Posted March 21, 2005 Author Posted March 21, 2005 So just make sure they test it first? They have told me they will prob want to replace all cables which seems a bit of a pain for them? Is this standard practice even if the cable is allright?
norman Posted March 21, 2005 Posted March 21, 2005 So just make sure they test it first?Yes They have told me they will prob want to replace all cables which seems a bit of a pain for them? If it's in with the price let it be a pain!! Is this standard practice even if the cable is allright? No need to change sound cables. 45136[/snapback] Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.
DGMarsden Posted March 21, 2005 Author Posted March 21, 2005 norman, I just don't want to have to move all the furniture so they can get around etc if it's unnecessary
DGMarsden Posted March 23, 2005 Author Posted March 23, 2005 Just to keep everyone updated - The Security company came round today and assessed the property and it's potential security weaknesses and have designed a good system for me based on their internet offer. They will be fitting in two weeks so will let you know how the install goes. Also, they will be fitting a Gardtec XS7 as the sounder and i currently have an Odyssey 3. What are the differences, which do you rate better? Thanks
Adi Posted March 27, 2005 Posted March 27, 2005 Any of the Odyssey series are good. Not fitted a Guardtec so cant comment. I really can't be ar**** with it anymore.
