Intruder Alarms

I am after a vibration sensor to fit to my roller shutter garage door to detect attempted forcing of the door. Do you have any products that detect vibration to the door itself rather than the frame: concerned that a frame mounted sensor may not be sensitive enough. Standard wired honeywell Optima alarm panel.

An aluminium frame window of my house was recently removed. The window installer removed the two RiSCO shock sensors (Model: RK600S0G3; P/N: RK600S0G300A; PD6662:2010; EN50131-2-8 Security; Grade 3, EC2). I will need two new sensors to install on the new window. The cables are there, and I believe they are fine. If the RK600S0G3 sensors are not available, please can you recommend the closest one? Around the house, other windows have the originally installed RK600S0G3 shock sensors. I am not sure if RK601SMG3 is the new version, but it seems to be a digital one, while all other sensors are wired. If I replace the dismantled wired RK600S0G3 shock sensors with the new digita…

Does this Smoke sensor (Menvier M12) come complete ie with the back plate? thank you

Hi A friend of mine has bought a shop with a g3 alarm panel. Nobody knows the codes to use the alarm. I have tried various engineer codes but none work. Is there a way round this or is it a new main panel job. Thanks

which pir is suitable for scantronic 9449 burglaralarm

Hello, I'm french and my english is very poor... I'm a retired man living in a house and so I'm not a company. My house has 15 contacts of relays (one on each door and on each window), they had been placed during the construction of the house. The wires are in the wall and completely hidden. I'm looking for wired alarm with an ability of extension ( number of wired captors or also wireless captors). The centrale must be quite (no siren) to be dissimulated from the burglars. In my bedroom I want and keypad with a LCD that can indicate to me where the intrusion occurs. My job was in informatic system, so I will be happy to configure my alarm wit…

Risco beams 72 series (7225,7250 and 7275). The data sheet tells me what the tamper output is but not the alarm output ie if it a changeover relay, contact closure in alarm condition etc.

What is the difference between Texecom Premier TD-W and GJD D-Tect X wireless? Are they both intended to perform the same job? Is there any drawback for Texecom product compared to the GJD one? How can i choose between these two?

Hi, From forums and even neighbors I hear that The Securitywarehouse is in fact the only place to get an alarm system at a reasonable price. Only the quantity of the products creates some confusion with me, therefore I would like some advice. I am looking for an alarm system to install in my house next to my home automation system. As I see on your website I have the choice over various systems. My concern however is that all components are compatible with each other. I am looking for the following: A hybrid central unit (wired and wireless) with battery. 3 wired keypads 5 PIR detectors (both infrared and microwave) with pet immunity. (wired…

Hi I am interested in purchasing the Scantronic Homelink 55 system for use at my private residence - this will allow me to upgrade my existing system and utilise the alarm cabling with the added ability to install future wireless devices without the need to install any further cables. My query is this - when installing the alarm can all of the programming functionality be achieved by the use of the keypad included in the pack - or does any specialist device or software need to be purchased? Many thanks John

Hi all... I am a sparky with a builder that would like an additional keypad adding to his Gardtec 591. The current keypad is a Contour with ACE - I assume this is a keyfob system. He only has one code, and the system was under contract with an alarm company by the previous owner, so... 1. Is his code likely to allow the integration of another keypad? 2. As he doesn't have any keyfobs (ACE) does he need another ACE compatible keypad - if not what pad would do? 3. Does the 591 allow factory resets? 4. Is a new system the better option? Many thanks, Simannjo

I would like to buy a menvier SD3. Is there a difference between the UK version and others. If I install the SD3 box in Belgium, will it work

Hi, I was looking at something like the Scantronic 9651 to replace my faulty C&K Securitech 700L control unit. However I was wondering if there is something I could get that would replace my control unit and use my existing hard-wired PIRs, door contacts etc., but adds 'smart' functions like alerts to smartphone when the alarm goes off, remote unsetting to let a neighbor in etc.? Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi, Can I use the Optex PIRs with the GJD Digizone lighting controller? I want to use Outdoor PIRs that are not triggered by small animals. Thanks, Martin

I also need a manual on how to program GJD wireless PIR's to the reciever. I bought them from you a while ago but the receiver has lost it programming.

I am having difficulty making the low temperature output on my SD3 dialler work correctly. I would like the dialler to send me a text message when temperature drops below the alarm threshold. However, despite the "test outputs" suggesting all is functioning OK the unit does not seem to be triggering the alarm properly. I have it configured as follows: Output 3 is set to Temperature Low/ Negative Polarity Output 3 has single wire to Trigger C Triggers are set to (default) negative polarity Trigger C Alarm is routed to Contact 1 In Test Options switching on Output 3 gives correct "Trig C Alarm" in System Log In Test Options testing Trigger C correctly sends m…

I have a customer who is after adding a wireless keypad onto a Texacom Premier 24 (wired) system. I was under the impression that this was not possible without replacing the panel and all accessories (PIRs, Contacts etc) completely. Could you please advise me if there is a product whereby I can add a wireless keypad to this system

Hi, I have a Honeywell Flex 20 C005-E2-K04I with Mk8 Keyprox Keypad and Ethernet and I am looking for IR detectors. what do you recommend? I am not interested in wireless detectors, could you please also advise which smoke detector, door magnet and RF portal card is required? Doesn't have to be Honeywell.

Hello, I have a wired fire and intruder alarm system, with the main hub in my house. The sensors are in a recording studio at the end of my garden. The fire/smoke sensor, above my recording desk is inaccessible and has failed. As the wires are inaccessible, I want to replace it with a wireless option. What do you suggest?

Description states "Many metal control panels connect 0Volt of the 12VDC supply to the case of the box." Do you know if this is true for the Honeywell Galaxy G2 panels?

Hi, how to wire the kx15dtam sensor to the Optima alarm panel.I simply want to replace the now obsolete Equinox E sensor. Thanks

We have recently moved in to a house fitted with a Scantronic 9448 alarm system. We believe we need to replace the PIR detectors to pet tolerant ones (as we have two house cats) and I wanted to check before I go ahead and purchase them that the 430 PIR will be compatible with the existing system?

I have installed veritas r8 panel last year , I was wondering if it is possible to somehow have it so it contacts my mobile phone through my internet router when going into alarm mode, I know you can get a communicator , I have used these in the pass, but I do not have a land line anymore, like many people I use mobile phones, hard wired to my router would not be a problem , your help / advice would be appreciated ,

I have recently changed a Optima compact Gen 4 panel as a favour for someone. The first panel that was bought through Amazon had a fault on it. A second unit has since been fitted and all is working except the new Siren which is a Reson 8. The unit comes with pre-fitted links across TA TAMP and PA. The manual states that these should be in place when powering the unit up. This contradicts some advice on online instruction that says to remove the link to T A when wiring the siren. The external siren does not sound or flash when an alarm is activated, internal sounder in board works OK and all zones work fine on a walk test. No LED,s in the siren are vi…
