Advice on Hybrid system

    Hi,
    I am looking for some advice on a good hybrid system to install in a 1970’s house.
    I have installed a few wired systems over the years but not in a while.
    The house has an existing wired system but most of the windows are not wired. Basically the existing panel is wired to the bell, one PIR, two doors, a couple of windows and the keypad.
    I want to replace this with a new system that will still be wired to the bell, PIR and entry door but will have wireless shock sensors on the windows and possibly wireless panic buttons.
    Ideally I would also like some mobile alerting using a PAYG SIM.
    I have been looking at the Siemens SPC 4320 and it seems to do the job once I get the wireless module.

    Would anyone recommend anything else that would do the same job at a better or similar price? I have generally used HKC in the past.
    Thanks

    If going down the route of installing a SPC and you need wire free then a better option would be to use a quick bridge. The shock sensors used with the wireless module have no pulse detection on the SPC.

    Thanks, I am now looking at going with a full HKC SW1070 system - do the HKC wireless sensors have pulse detection?

    Yes they do, here is a link to the specs off them.
    They can also have wired devices into the alarm and tamper inputs on the RF sensors, handy for if you have multiple openings or a larger window you want to fit a second device too.
