    Good morning I wondered if you could help, we have fitted a ali door to a business which has a Chubb alarm system, and the Chubb engineer has said the below. "The lock or keep needs to have an integral micro switch contact on it to provide electrical connections. Giving common, normally open and normally closed options for the connection onto the alarm" I could really use some help with this from someone who knows, I do have pictures of the door if i can send them across to you. Wondered if you had i stock or could get what i need, Thank you

    I'm installing a Texecom Premier Elite system in my house. Looking at the Odyssey X sounders they all have the window for an alarm installer to put their logo. Would this look odd without one? After a some searching I found the Odyssey 5E. This looks better (no insert window!) but perhaps an older model? Are there other boxes that might be better for my DIY use case?

    Hi, We are a school with a primary, secondary & sixth form buildings, each with their own intruder alarm panel and we are looking for a fob which can be programmed to all 3 panels. I believe our panels are Honeywell Galaxy. Do you sell an alarm fob which can be programmed to multiple panels? I look forward to hearing from you.

  5. Hi there, I am currently in the process of renovating a house and I am looking to install a fire detection system that not only meets building regulations for a three-story house but also offers higher protection than the minimum LD3 level. In the past, I have used a Honeywell Galaxy panel with fire zones, but that was a few years ago, and I am sure there have been advancements since then. I've been considering the C-Tec Hush Pro solution, but I'm concerned about nearing the 16-device limit. Running the cables around the house in a single run seems feasible, especially with the ceilings down and floors up, but I'm wondering if a larger 2-wire panel with a loop p…

  8. The Scantronic Sounder External Wired Backplate, SDR-WEXT-G2, installed a few years ago worked perfectly until about a week ago, when I noticed that the 'comfort LEDs' had stopped working. On further investigation the unt does not sound the siren when an alarm condition is triggered, although the internal Scantronic 9651PD does. On opening the external sounder box its cover tamper switch does not trigger the external siren but again it does trigger the 9651PD. On further investigation, the internal battery of the external sounder is fully charged, therefore I suspect the sounder circuit board is faulty. Are replacement circuit boards available for this unit as I don't…

    Pre-Order Enquiry - Decoy Bell Box Do you sell a Decoy Burglar Alarm Bell Box that includes a mains powered light (such as a faint blue flashing strip light) that is always active ... and mimics an actual bell box. If so, please could you let me know the part number etc. If not, I would be very grateful for any suggestions ... such as modifying a standard decoy box? btw. Does 'Sigma' still exist or taken over? I installed a sigma system years ago and have tried to buy similar kit. Many thanks for your help.

    I was wondering whether you have a substitute for the FMX-DT-X8? This item is to replace an existing bottom entry Optrex PIR, and I am worried about the length of the wires that the requirements are (1) bottom cable entry (2) wire joiner preferably at bottom on unit (3) 7 wires, including the LED latch wire (4) medium sized room about 3.5 metres square. Would have a such a substitute PIR?

Can anyone confirm this information? Thanks.
