  1. Codes are saved in the main control but just as a caveat it's not totally uncommon for older panels to corrupt or lose programming when down powered.

     

    More than likely OK but worst case you would have to update/replace the control panel

  2. Hi Ben you have an ADT powemax by the sounds of it.

     

    It will need some parameters re programming as you guessed and this can be done by any competent company. If you post your general location someone on here may be able to assist further.

     

    The system will have an engineers code unique to ADT but this can also be defaulted/changed.

     

    The devices are also unique to ADT so if you wanted to add later then your options are limited to second hand or ADT

     

    My suggestion would be to get a local, reputable and recommended company to have a look, I'd also advise you have it under some sort of maintenance agreement, this could save you in the long run.

     

    Finally you may also have a dummy external bell, so this is worth checking too.

    Never used a hook in the drill myself, I just use a specific Bosch mini 12v drill and bang the pair straight into the chuck. Literally 5 seconds on reverse spin and it’s done, nice neat pairs all looking identical and even twists.

    Same bend the ends over for a better grip then trim to size. 

     

    Also worked really well with ceiling grid wire, used to get rolls from the skips and do metres at a time and cut to length for fish wires.
