DamienGiles Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Hello all, I've just had a quote to install an alarm system - infact, 4 quotes.

The quotes I'm getting are in excess of Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/23131-approving/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wooly-bobs Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 You could but i doubt any approved alarm company would take on a DIY system even if it did comply with the regs for police response. If all the quotes are coming in around the same price it may suggest its the right price.

billythebellbox Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 If I install the alarm, could an alarm company verify the install as/when I needed police response etc? chances are when you ring up the "approved" alarm company & say you want them to take your DIY job they'll not be interested?

DamienGiles Posted May 7, 2008 Author Share Posted May 7, 2008 Thanks for the replies. I'm not saying that I don't agree with the labour - as that's what's paid for. I asked all companies for a breakdown of the cost (labour, service, equipment)... all of them come out at about Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/23131-approving/#findComment-196781 Share on other sites More sharing options...
