JohnDeere6630 Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 thinking of installing some alarms and was wondering if anyone could point me i the right direction been looking on ebay but they all look a bit cheap and unreliable ideally looking for both the magnetic window and door type and the motion senser type Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robdab Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Hi mate I installed a Yale wireless one from screw-fix it cost £159 . It comes with 2 pir motion detectors 2 door contacts a siren and dummy box and of course a keypad panel. I watched the DVD supplied and followed the instructions . All in all it took approx 3 hrs and that was including fitting the outside siren . I'm a sparky and wouldn't hesitate to fit one for anyone else as these systems are built to very good standards and quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

point and shoot Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 the professionals will only install a wired system. They reckon the wireless ones are unreliable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bostonmick Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 I have two alarm systems both wireless systems and I have to say both absolutely reliable.between them they have resulted in four arrests on different occasions.be mind full that most insurance companies insist on a proffesional fitted and maintained system with proof of service.

Scottoj18 Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Hi mate I install security systems and can say wireless alarms have come on loads in the last few years. If you house is finished they are the best option. A few faults with the Yale alarms are that people know that they are not linked to the police and are a diy job , no decent alarm company will fit them. All the manuals for programming the alarm are available online. With a alarm you are protecting your house, goods and family. It's worth spending a little extra.
