Alarm design advice for 3 bedroom house

hmmm

 

Perhaps i am being a bit dumb

I drew a little drawing 

 

Basically even if i put a spacer under the mag contact on the window, and get it

to the same "height" as the wireless sender ...the sender is too far away (if you get me)

i mean it is a upvc window but it has fancy plastic 18mm bead around everywhere, and so there is no

SQUARE finish between the fram and window anywhere

 

 

I hope u get what i mean

alternatively fit an external wired contact to the frame/window and wire that into your transmitter

what a a testicle ache

i just looked at my windows and these are almost identical

i dont know what they cant make some form of "wedge" to fix them to ..i really dont

 

something like this could work,as long as the tape was strong enough ...no reason it wouldnt work ?

screwing is an option too

You want to screw them not stick. Alse re wedge etc there are thousands of window profile so it's either additional rf sensors or wired. As above I'd use a flush contact(s) but ob my own windows I only use the shock element

You don't use magnets ???

 

or no lunatic kids like mine who leave windows open day and night 

I don't, but I will put them on when I upgrade the heating to room thermostats. I'm currently only using trv and the alarm to set the heating mode, ie comfort(disarmed) , night (part set) or economy (armed) 

I will shut off rads based on window and door contacts

I got mags/shocks on all windows now , althought front is contact only would have been nice if mini contacts were being distributed now 

 

Hope it doesn't have some lunatic battery

Well I have deceided to flog on this Yale Kit IA220, thanks to being misadvised several months ago I have ended up with a load of accessories that should work but dont :( they are for Easyfit system ...still 866

but not compatible ...

 

 

anyway I am going to flog it all on ebay and get a decent one

 

I initially looked at Pyronix and Texecom

I am pretty sure the Texecom system would work out cheaper ...perhaps.

 

what do you guys think 

 

I need a system that 

** Comes with Wired Bellbox (the only wired kit i need)

** Comes  Wireless Panic Button
**Comes with a dialer or some way of notification

 

then the standard kit i need is 
5 x Wireless PIR
4 x Wireless Contacts

 

Any Suggestions for me welcomed
