justin Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 have a routabout in specilist tools to be signed out but we dont use them any more as over the yers they settle and you end up with a circular dip in your carpet and the wear marks really show. and using a circular saw to make a groove that long can weaken the floor unless its along a joist. again be very careful with either.but while i personally dont agree with alan generally i would say there are some damn fine unapproved installers such as alan.. It's likely you'll stand to get a much neater and a more carefully installed alarm installation with an older more experienced unapproved engineer. A bigger company will send it's kids on an average domestic installations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james.wilson Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 oh right, that would be the same tool they use to take the bottom of doors? But why would you take some off the skirting board? re the felting of pressure pads your right before my time but those routing things just sink over time so you would have to keep going back (maybe on the service) and adjust em. Bad idea from my experience. Justin, we are a small nsi gold firm with a couple of very experienced domestic installers, that love domestics and hate commercials and their art of hiding cables is second to none. Some large comapnies may 'send a kid' as you say but not all gold firms are huge. I have been known to install as well you know lol securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

Chorlton Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I can think of two or three firms where your guaranteed to get the boss .......... Except on Fridays when he's playing golf with the chief constable Thursdays when he's at the Masonic hall gathering. Wednesdays when he's at the 3 areas BNI meetings. Tuesdays when he's at the Chamber of Commerce events day. Mondays when he's at the FSB networking day. The weekends when he's doing the invoicing, accounts, stocktaking, ordering, credit control & admin. On any other day 1-2-1 personal attention is assured at all times C.
