charlie6 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 (edited) It should be in the initial contract that at the termination of that contract the company shall default the engineer code. I know of a few installers who insert that clause. At the end of the day, a customer has bought a product. It belongs to the customer and there should be no 'unfair contract clause'. On the other hand, if the contract stipulates that a customer, on cessation of the contract should pay a nominal sum for default, then so be it. Engineer codes are essentially the private property (in a sense) of the company and should not be divulged. However there is a very fine line (only determined by the intentions of the parties)as to defaulting...

goncall Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 still wouldnt not default it why you have the code,you can look at prog and rewrite spec,as opposed to crash a panel with no spec you dont know users or set up,fine on 6 zones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentryAlertSystems Posted July 22, 2015 Author Share Posted July 22, 2015 aye like that happens,ok on a corner shop try doing it on a big warehouse with all that goes with it,maint money gone in a few call backs I used to enjoy pulling a system apart and starting from scratch on take overs. Takes a fraction of the time if there are two of you though and half a day to do it thoroughly, which you don't often get anymore. I was the only engineer in the company at first so it made sense to know every system inside out. Rarely touch alarms now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james.wilson Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 why you have the code,you can look at prog and rewrite spec,as opposed to crash a panel with no spec you dont know users or set up,fine on 6 zones id still default wouldnt trust the outgoing firm as being any good, thats probably why its a takeover. Im sure you have seen spared of circuits on yours. Quote securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.
