Hi all,
I need a wireless alarm, and it needs to be installed within the month, so I'm looking for someone else to do it, that knows what they're doing (because I clearly don't when it comes to electrics) and safe in the knowledge that all is ok, safe and working!
I would like additional functionality and control (via iPad or Internet), but above all I want a damn good alarm system!
CCTV is also desired, but I guess that is seperate from the alarm system...
