I won’t be using the company who installed the alarm, will be a qualified electrician installing the panel. What panel should I be getting?

Seems the speaker in my panel has given up, crackles if the alarm goes off - second time this has happened. First time it was replaced Under warranty. I’m using the attached panel, Anyone know the make and model? And where I can find a reasonably priced replacement? It’s hardwired in. Could a new replacement just replace it and the current sensors be programmed in?

Looks like I currently have a Pyronix. Can my current panel be reprogrammed to send alerts to my mobile for any intruders without an engineer code? It sent alerts prev to my old phone number which I’ve now changed - what external alarm sounded would be best to add to my system?

The prev company I used weren’t great and I don’t want to reuse them to update this alarm. Half the time when we were monitored the company wouldn’t call for a false alarm. The camera isn’t essential - would prefer to start from scratch and get a new system.. saying that, can my existing hardwired panel be removed and replaced with a new one - and the current sensors be programmed to a new panel inc an external alarm sounder?

The external sounder is what got the attention of the neighbours at my aunties break in. My current alarm does sound very loud from the panel if triggered but this wouldn’t be enough to alert neighbour etc - and I’m sure if they pull the panel off wall then then the alarm with stop beeping? It’s hardwired

Hi all. After a family members house being broken into I’ve decided to update my current home alarm. Currently I have a basic non monitored alarm installed by a local company but sadly it doesn’t siren outside of the house if there’s a break in. It had the usual keypad, break sensor on front door and 4 motion sensors. I’m looking to purchase a DIY alarm I can install myself with some help. I’ve seen the Ring door bell alarm system advertised which seem good. My criteria is, control panel, minimum of 4 sensors, door contact breaker and ideally an exterior alarm which sirens LOUD if triggered.. also a discreet interior cam for our hall way. We stay on a ground floor flat and we have only one level. I’m not looking for monitored - rather an alert system or camera that would warm me of an intruder. My budget is ideally £500.
