Guest micky Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 hi i am new to the industry , i have fitted 7-8 residential intruder alarms mainly ade g3 compacts ,wish to start on my own shortly . I need some info on wireless systems (residential) ie which are the best and relatively hassle free systems to go for ,and are the ade wireless kits any good. can anyone help.
Alarm Protection Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 Alright Micky, I usually install ADE Optima Compacts and Gardtec CP8 for residentials that are wired but have never used the ADE wireless Kit. The Gardtec 593 with wireless receiver has been the best install so far. We have done around 30 of these installs using this kit over the past year and had no real problems on the fit. The only real problem is the window/door detectors are on the ugly side but in all this kit has to be the best wireless i have fitted. If you do fit the ADE wireless i would be interested i what you thought. I have also heard the Scanny wireless is a good bit of kit. !
Guest micky Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 hi thanks for the reply . the guardtec wireless systems that u fit , what do they roughly retail at and do they come as a kit . Also r they straight forward fits and program easy.
Alarm Protection Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 Micky, The system normally comes as a pack with panel,wireless receiver,remote keypad, 4 pir's and a door contact. The only wires that you need to fit into the panel are the keypad and external bell. Programming takes about 10 - 15 mins which is easy to follow. As for a price, i can't give that info out as there are to many other installers that could see it but for the money you get a good piece of kit that is reliable. !
Guest micky Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 hi thanks 4 that ,will have a look for some prices for the guardtec system .

I have purchased a speech dialer some years ago directly through guardtec . The reason i did was because an alarm installer said that it would take 6-8 weeks to order 1 through the wholesaler , i later realised that he said that to sell my dad his own panel and speech dialler .That way he made more money and did not have to program the guardtec 800 panel which my dad had already purchased.I then got this 800 panel and ordered a dialler for it ,got it the next day from guardtec. Then got someone to install it as i was not in the alarm business then . ( that was a job and a half no one wants to touch em )
Zak Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 Most of the GardTec range are not available through wholesales/trade counters. It is likely you will have to deal direct unless you buy the Eurosec range. As I understand it anyway.

Alarm Protection Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 Gardtec should have not supplied this item if you do not have an account. If you e mail me then i could give you a price for the kit and install? !
