I gave up, house bashing gets to you sooner or later
-
It's all unregulated anyway, bs just so insurance pays out and any excuse to not pay
-
Yes still all going good , apart from one who seems to think a mains failure is my fault lol
I even got my first low battery level enquiry haha Adi might like that
But flexibility of the wireless sensors is the big plus to , being 2way aswell
I think having used the other brands, you n3d to use hkc regular to appreciate how good it is
(of course the dimension wired is still hardcore )

You will have send your details over and get trade access otherwise forum rules don't allow it, even pm
There's a link somewhere in here

OK but most bells are neg , so what does that mean when you say you removed plus from strobe
You could just connect it to the bell output temporarily so strobe flashes on alarm
-
Just tell landlord , power cut and this happened so Upto him if he wants it sorted , but it may give you trouble one night, so he should fix as said above , or decommission, latter probably cost just as much though sometimes
-
Either way not much stopping you from installing and then they can move it to what ever posistion they want , they normally do anyway
-
Has to be reset and repaired , you could get the company out or call any company to programme it for user reset etc
-
Not me an DD lol I suppose g makes a good Plumber h is into refurbs and so on

Sensor has a range, look at paper work, curtain pole may not really affect its pick up , you could always experiment , stick pir up and see its pick up , after all your looking for movement coming from a certain direction in your house , unless they cut through a wall avoiding your sensor to get all your stash in those safe deposit boxes
Seems it's over complicated now just stick the sensor up man

Customer parts sets using the keypad on the landing then completes setting using the p.t.s adjacent the keypad.
Customer forgets system is set, walks down stairs and triggers the part entry cct then runs back upstairs to unset using fob using the that hangs off the keypad.
This acceptable in BS8243?
Fob hanging off is customer issue so would have nothing to do with it, unless your suggesting the installer fits it there for the customer, what customer does isn't controllable always

mainly visonic over here, used about 30-40 completes last year plus the occaisonal express and master, no big issues really
certianly never had any probs with the contacts
Is that because its one way you never know anyway , or they manufacturing faulty units in batches
-
You don't need anything
-
If you buy the x you have to get the lamp (light) aswell , plus looks faulty as others have mentioned before
-
Thought they were cheap because of that ? Less outputs cheaper product , and customers can buy it as cheap as you can ?
-
Is it the LCD version keypads ? I beleieve the LCD will work on some of those panels but display info and have certain funstions only and if you have a panel that needs the led keypad you must have one of those to see what your doing , at least it's what I saw on one system
-
Newer risco lightsys is apparently the experts choice , if you plan to stick with risco
Not my choice but seems if your doing it yourself stick similar model
I am sure experts will turn up soon, they work a bit more than me hence maybe why no reply yet lol
-
Even some of there newer keypads lose there pixels

Hiya,
I'm new to this forum so treat me gently. Believe it or not I'm actually an apprentice for a very big fire & security company in UK based all over. I'll be qualified in July and hopefully start a fire and security company mid to end of his year.
I've worked in the industry for nearly 5 years doing mainly fire but have installed dozens of intruder, cctv and access control. I'm after some advice on how to start up? What do I need etc such as tools, van.
I don't want to be messed around with or lead off the subject, I'd like some proper advice if possible. I am very eager and willing to commit myself to long days and wanting a successful business.
Open to suggestions on how I should start?
As a house basher , just wondered if you worked for 5yrs, does it take that long to complete an apprenticeship?
How will you do this part time? Will you tell bigger customers evenings and weekends only?
Is your current employer got you on a tracker so will you sneak off to do quotes etc?
Big question , do you use the company photocopier without permission for personal use?
Don't worry I just a house basher so trying to work out what angle your coming from
Save enough money in case you don't make any for a couple of years , or persuade someone to give you a big loan , or do another business on the side
H can give you advice on house refurbs as there's good money in it, and there's a few plumbers here to

What's issue with areas? Thought it was easier to setup than others

Galaxy dimension nice flexible panel not that friendly for domestic
G2 and flex has got left behind on wireless compared to others no future with them as nothing being developed further from what it seems

Update following the ADT visit.
Their recommendation was to upgrade to a wireless system at a price of £249. The problem with this is that with this system I would no longer have the police response I currently have. In order to upgrade to a police response wireless system I would have to shell out a whacking £749 to replicate what I currently have. No way I can justify that.
The system (a domonial) currently works and should it fail it will be ADT's responsibility to repair/replace for free. So the other option is to move the control panel next to the new master socket.
Prices for this are:
£100 call out fee
£52 for 1 hrs labour.
A saving of £597.
Given that I am more than happy to give my 9 years so far business to another company, what are the chances of them waiving this fee to keep my custom?
What you mean upgrade to wireless system? It's already wireless

Why can't you run the cable? Had a few like this always found a route externally
4th option is gsm gprs with adt I assume they still do it
-
So have you changed the battery yet then?
