Hey guys ive been researching alarm systems for a little while and ive found lots of information, but I need a little help deciding which one to go for!
I'm after a wireless system so I dont have any unsightly wires. Yes I know the advantages and disadvantages so please dont try to change my mind.
I thought I had settled on the Texecom Ricochet system but it's going to be a pain in the arse installing the keypad as I really dont want to go chasing wires into the wall. It would mean making a massive mess, replastering, wallpapering, and then painting. 2 or 3 walls. Not ideal.
I love the look of the Texecom which is why I chose it, but due to not having a wireless keypad it's now off the list.
I dont want a Visonic Powermax kit as they look ugly as sin!
My requirements are:
- Fully wireless including bellbox
- Ability to use prox tags
- I will need 5 pir sensors and 3 door contacts
- Must look aesthetically pleasing
Options that would be nice but not necessary:
- Class 2 system
- Wireless smoke detectors
- Ability to turn on a floodlight or two
- A system that will text me should the alarm go off
- Connect to a pir and bellbox in my garage which is up to 40m away.
- Can be connected to a cctv system
Ok so what would you guys advise?
Thanks!
