I started off for a small firm in 96 and moved to a local rival after being poached for more money. Stayed there on install and service across all faiths until 2002 when my boss chucked in the towel to retire. He had no next of kin and wanted the nice life in Spain so sold up to my current employer. There for the last 2.5 years I'm their CCTV manager albeit I do callout duty for the extra dosh and it keeps my alarm skills current.

1992 started in Electronics servicing, and ended up servicing TL VCR's for the company I then went to work for doing CCTV from 94, Did 6 years there and another few years for a large international co, mainly involved with CCTV though.

I started doing alarms about 4 years ago when I was a sparky, (sorry), mainly domestic.

I've started doing more in the last 12 months and am now moving away from electrical a bit.

Only started in this game june 96 (I Think), was installing on my own after the 1st week. Mainly Intruder the first few years with some cctv & fire thrown in. That company was bought out in 1998 and I was then mainly just servicing, building Police cell call & attack panels, electrical property maintenance, and access control. I`ve done a bit of everything really. Started this site 23-December 02 and have been learning everyday since.
