Agree with bernard this is the easiest and cheapest option it will also provide adequete protection to the cable :lol:

Afraid not. With intercoms its basically a case of following the wiring diagrams that come with the systems. Linking up as the drawings describe. Ive done loads and never had any formal training on them. Generally they are quite straight forward Specific manufacturers may offer training if you...

You can buy a dialler thingy yes and connect it to any alarm system. I would recommend either the menvier sd1 or the texecom one

I'd check the tamper switch on the internal sounder. If you remove the lid of the sounder there will be a small silver spring which is depressed by the lid or a microswitch which is also depressed by the lid. It could also be the keypad or main panel tamper switch so id check those too Good luck

It's neither Mark it's a dual technology break glass detector. Acoustic and Vibration

Ive got a full manual on PDF I think but yes your right you do need the software really if you want to change anything. Although from memory most of it is quite straight. Unfortunately not got the lead though

Many thanks for the replies guys ill check out the screwfix one

Want to fit an electric door opener to my current garage door. It's a double door of the up and over variety with springs on each side and a frame affixed to the roof to support the door in it's upright state. Can anyone recommend a good kit out there for DIY fitment. Many thanks

Right simple PIR rules : don't face them towards windows, PIR's ok in most rooms , Dual tecs for Kitchens Garages and Bathrooms (although wouln't advise one in the bathroom) PIR's are susceptible to flies/spiders so make sure you seal round the cable entry into the PIR

Like we going to tell you that. We'd have no livelihoods left :wink: To be honest the best trick is to wire the system when all floorboards can be lifted and walls chased etc. Obviously though in a house that is not usually possible. If you have no choice but to run surface. Lift the edge...

Thanks for the advice cremeegg

But of course :lol:

Cheers for the reply creme egg you are correct at presnet it is run in T and E. But ill definitely be swapping that for 6mm armoured just wanted to install the mini CU as a stop gap really. Everything is fused down to 13A form the spur already so there is no issue there. When it comes to the SWA...

Currently the power to my garage goes directly into a socket and then is distributed to the lighting circuit. Obviously this is less than ideal. So im looking for a reasonable quality 4 way CU to feed into. THis will give me seperate MCB'sa for the power and lighting and allow me to add a radial...

Any electrical whole saler can usually get them for you mine came from CEF.

Yeah eyedee that is just a standalone speech dialler which looks like a keypad. You need a keypad for the panel as well. :lol:

Well there cheaper than my prices from a well known distributor. Won't post prices on here (too many variables) but if you do need to know then ask. :lol:

Sounds about right don't scrimp on the battery though go for Yuasa 7AH should be ideal. I'd go for CQR 8 core cable if I was you. The Premier 48 seems like a good panel afaik. Out of interest are you sure on your prices they seem very cheap. :shock:

Yep if you searched from the mnfr of the original unit i'm assuming you have, your best option is to install seperate items. Good luck
