New alarm installation

crasy dash

Hi all i want to install an alarm in my parents house does not need to be anything great its a 1950's house so fairly small in size all i would want is a pir in upstairs hallway inside conservatory sitting room etc
This would be more than adequate as our next door neighbour is always around usually sees everything that goes on anyway:D

I was thinking of going wireless something like a Hkc 1070 panel

Any ideas or thoughts would be great roughly how much the panel costs will
price a few wholesalers from list just want to see what they quote

Thanks
Ger

HKC Securewave, Signet, Visonic, Enforcer, are all good wire free system. The signet would be the only one you will need to get a cable from the panel to the external bell unless you use aritechs wire free one. Prices can vary from the different suppliers so shop around is always the best advice that can be given. If you do run into problems you will always get all the help you need here

I will shop around and see what price i can get it for

Do you have an installation manual for the 1070 panel might be worth reading before i buy

HKC Securewave, Signet, Visonic, Enforcer are all good panels.
Some info on SigNET here

Securewave Here:

Viosonic Here:

I would not recommend PiRs only , as an intruder has to be in the house before the alarm activates.
As a minimum try to cover all ground floor & accessible windows. Then back that up with a minimum of 2 PiRs hall & landing.

Wasn't too impressed with my demo of the enforcer and the sensors are quite big

Your best option is to get site surveys carried out on your premises, 3 or more quotes comparing like with like will get you the best price. If looking for installers check out the PSA list here, all installers who install alarm system must be registered.

Regarding the law on this and the op's situation.

Is it allowed to install an alarm in a home if you dont have a licence once you not charging for the service? My best mate wants one but I dont fancy getting locked up:D

If your mate buys the equipment and you put it in without charging him for doing so that is ok as you are not being paid for the install.
