Mavrick_001 Posted January 17, 2006 Posted January 17, 2006 To be fair I think you've answered the question yourself, prices aren't to be discussed in the public forums. Everyone prices things differnt so I suppose unless your going to get quotes off different people you'll be left guessing? CCTV Intruder Access Control Tony Hughes, Proprietor, TRADE MEMBER

Service Engineer Posted January 17, 2006 Posted January 17, 2006 Sorry if I have breached the forum rules, moderators please feel free to delete this post if necessary.

ABC Posted January 17, 2006 Posted January 17, 2006 we have clauses in our specifications as well, including conduit, adverse conditions and the like, not to mention the wiring distances and routing spec'd. I find it not a real world application to spec a commercial system based on an arbritrary number, unless you're putting the job out to bid for subcontract. I find a better system would be installed if the standards were clearly written, as well as an apples to apples comparison, not limited to what grade the alarm was subject to.
