Thanks for the responses so far, will reply in more detail after I've done a bit more research. It's my first attempt at installing an alarm, so will be a bit of a learning experience but i'm up for the challenge. sixwheeledbest: Thanks for the link, will read the thread later tonight

Apologies in this is common request, but i'm after a bit of advice for a wireless home alarm system. I've done a fair bit of reading/research and decided on either a Pyronix Enforcer V10 or a Texecom Premier Elite system. Both systems seem to offer what I want, the starter kits seem pretty good and would only need to purchase a few extra bits to get me up and running with either. Main requirements are for a system with 3/4 PIRs, 1/2 door contacts, bell, control box, keypad etc... My main concerns around the systems are, Pyronix: - The keypad is on the control box, I think I would prefer a seperate keypad so I can have the control box hidden away Texecom: - I can't work out what I would need to have external alerts (sms, phone etc...) when the alarm sounds I interested in knowing which of the two is easier to setup, more flexible etc... Having read the installation manuals, the Texecom looks easier to setup via the Wintex software, whilst the Pyronix looks easier to setup overall. Any help/comments appreciated!
