Hi All.

 

I wonder if I could get some advice on a system to suit my needs please?

 

3 Bed detached house, no current security system, have a garden with a detached sectional garage approx 15m from the rear off the house.

 

Ideally looking to be able to cover the garage at all times,.  further partially arm the house at night (downstairs) and fully arm the whole system when we leave the premises.

 

Been looking at the Scantronic ion 16 ,. as it can support 3 areas of zones and I am hoping the wireless coverage would reach my garage providing I mounted the control unit on the far wall of the house.

 

Welcome any thoughts on this or suggestions on alternative solutions.

 

Thanks in advance!

Risco Lightsys 2 or Agility 3 are good panels. 2 way detectors and have brought out a DT PIR for hostile enviroments. 

Compatible with IPhone/Android to set/Unset and you can add IP cameras to the system. 

Choose a reputable local installer and they will be have systems which they support.

Any Honeywell Galaxy G2/Dimension/Flex with RF portal fitted. You can locate the wired RF portal away from the control panel, negating the need to have the panel positioned central to the wireless sensors.

moonshine..... maybe its time to quit ?

First question is, are you looking for an intruder system or DIYing?

Not at all. Been installing this kit for a few months and all good using the 2 way wireless.

I was thinking about the DIY approach if possible.

We have started to use the Risco equipment too.  We have had a few issues with the door contacts going faulty.  Except for the door contacts everything seems to be good quality.
