hpotter Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 It's only a personal view and perhaps excessive but I beleive setting/unsetiing by fob is a backward step in terms of security. I agree with you-ish.... On small sites/domestics. Where many ppl have codes: 1. others gets to know other ppl's code 2. managers forget to delete 3. ppl less security consious when not their own home, thus complacent. 4. etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horses for courses springs to mind and I suppose like anything else security related it's really down to the circumstances of the protected building and it's occupants.

james.wilson Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 totally agree (re risk assesment) also you need to consider (my wife for example) hates codes and wouldnt use our alarm if it wasnt fob based. Wants it to be easy etc, and cant be done with all those buttons. Personally id rather my alarm was on even if it was set by 'clapping' rather that not used 'cos of all them buttons' Its a common comment re keys to door and fob being together but as i said cars have been like this for many years, and intruder alarms are a lot cheaper to rekey than cars. securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

I also agree, anything which encourages a system to be set is a good thing but I'm not sure about the comparison with cars, I do see the point but TBH I don't really care about my car. It would be an inconvenience if it were stolen but I would be tottally gutted if I lost all the irreplaceable things in my home. PS. I don't have anything of any real financial value except for one fairly expensive guitar but things like pictures of the kids growing up etc which you cannot really insure against. (can you tell I used to sell security full time) lol!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
