Currently have (unused) wired alarm, have now fitted Ring alarm.

However I haven’t fitted the external siren yet. Wondering what sort of cost would be to remove (if that’s necessary?), where the current old panel is, or at least use the wire from here (converting the fused spur to a plug type), to power the external Ring siren, which is want fitting in place of the current old alarm bell box.

The Ring siren really needs power otherwise have to swap batteries, very inconvenient as its high up, and reason I can’t as don’t have ladders.

So job would be to remove old bell box, fit new Ring bell box, use wiring from panel to Ring (via a plug in adapter), and remove battery from old bell box/panel so doesn’t go off. How much am I looking at roughly? And would I need an electrician and/or an alarm guy?
