HardenLong123 Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 In general terms what is the view of Gardtec ? I've had a quote for a new system (domestic) where one firm plan to fit a Gardtec 595 with eurosec PIR detectors Another firm have quoted for a galaxy The first firms price is more expensive (by about 300 quid) but I really respected the guy who is the owner of the company and also installs himself The second firm sales guy was a bit unsure of himself and what he was suggesting I have heard conflicting reports about gardtec-I am wanting an auto dialler system set up and not monitoring Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi The total price was 1125 plus vat for 2 door magnetic contact sensors, seven PIR's, 2 keypads at front and back door a gardtec 04069 auto dial unit, external alarm unit, decoy box The galaxy quote was more basically outlined and as mentioned I wasn't imbued with huge confidence from that guy but his quote was 800 quid plus vat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think it would be the done thing to go back to the guy and aim for a "negotiation" on price given the cheaper quotes I've had Plus, the guy hasn't quoted for including prox tags-which the other companies did in theor quotes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
