Intruder Alarms

Intruder alarms, programming, design advise, detector selection.

  1. Hi can i fit a dialler to a scantronic 9651, or can you suggest somethink.

  2. I'm currently self-building a house and am trying to decide on the alarm system (wired v wireless primarily) We have a pet (uses ground floor only) so PIR may be an issue. There are 3 doors (entrance, back and bi-fold) and 9 ground floor windows, plus 2 upstairs by a flat roof. I think I'd prefer wireless if possible, but I have a detached garage with games room above (1.5m from house). I also like the Texecom flush control panel - can you connect 2 of these? Can you recommend a system please?

  3. This has to be a Grad 3 system. I need 6 shutter contacts, 2 recessed door contacts, 1 surface door contact, 4 cieling pir, 4 smoke detectors, 3 panic buttons, speeach and text dialar, 1 bell box and cover and battries, I also want a remote kepad so I can switch of alarm in stoarage area when needed. If I am going to have items on individual zones then wich texacom alram do I need. Most of the items are straight forward but need to know more about the remote keypad do I need to purchase some extra card extra. you can call me so I can explain to you thanks.

  4. The problem seems to come from the battery supply from motherboard no power to charge battery so flat battery will the unit need to be replaced

    We have Optex FX-59 QZ alarm system which now it says to replace batteries however there are no batteries inside the sensors and in the panel. What are we supposed to do in this case? The alarm went off and an orange light keeps flashing.

    Hi, I'm trying to source a system for a mostly vacant property I own. Must have GSM ability, preferably with remote antenna, as most networks arent great. Minimum requirements for now 3 x PIR ( prefer wired ) 2 x Smokes ( prefer wired ) 2 x External siren/strobe ( wired ) 2 x Internal siren ( I want it to be loud inside ) Battery backup Most GSM systems seem to offer control via the mobile ? that would be handy. Also, although this is not a permanent install for now, I want the panel to be future proof. With perhaps addition of automatic-gates via mobile along with more PIR's and door contacts. Any reccomendations ? I have had one local guy price a…

  7. On the display screen two lines of Pixels have failed making it difficult to read what is on the lower part of the screen, I have re-booted the unit but there is no change. Do you have any further suggestions for rectifying the fault?

    Hi. I'm trying to find a light beam sensor to work on a driveway, to send a signal to my house when a vehicle or person breaks the beam. Can be hard-wired or wireless - the location is about 120m from the house - the back entrance to a farm. I think you must do such devices but I can't see them online.

    I am using the 660 in conjunction with a scantronic 500r. The panel is 12v removed for alarm and the 660 is the opposite. The instalation guide refers to a dip switch to change the polarity. I cannot identify this on the board. Any ideas .

  10. Recently purchased a GD-96 with Touchcentre. No communication between the two devices, suspect one to be faulty. Assistance please.

  11. i intend fitting a texacom premier and the client is wanting us to use the flush type keypads . can you advise as to the back boxes we need for these as we need them for the first fix stage . at the moment that will be two into brick and one optionally into plasterboard . can we order these upfront or do they only come with the keypads when ordered ?

    Hi Experts I am looking for alarm system for my house having (preferably Free App mainly to disarm the system if its false alarm from Remote location) Area needs covering are sensors covering 1 Main Door Sensor 1 Sensor /Shock Sensor for Patio 4 Sensors covering (1 on Landing,1 sensor in Kitchens area,1 for living room ,1 sensor for garage) 1 or 2 Sounders off excellent build quality preferably with blinking LED. My preference is Wireless as house is new build (But can think of Sounder being Wired if its good to do so rest of all sensors being wireless) So far i have done some research and found Visoic PowerMaster 33 or 360R …

  13. THE "HKC 2 WAY WIRELESS QUANTUM KIT" BUT THE CLIENT WANTS TO USE 2 ENTRY EXIT DOORS . SO I WANTED TO KNOW IF YOU CAN TWIN A PIR WITH A DOOR CONTACT AND PUT THEM BOTH ON THE ENTRY EXIT ZONE . SO THEY CAN SET THE ALARM SIMPLY BY PRESSING SET ON THE OPTIONAL KEY FOBS YOU SELL , INSTEAD OF OMITTING ZONES AND STUFF WHEN SETTING THE ALARM ON THE KEY PAD

  16. i ordered a Texecom alarm R8+ in 2010. I setup the alarm last year. i got some PIR petwise frmo texecom. Well, i have false alarm during the night 1x / each month in the room where there is a sofa. I have 4 cats. I guess, they jump from the sofa.

  19. Hi, Im looking for additional replacement wireless sensors (contact and vibration) for a Risco WIsdom system, RWT62 (contact) and RWT6S (shock), you dont seem to have these in stock. Are there compatible replacements? I think they also be available under the Gardtec brand.

  20. Dear sirs, I'm about to order a complete Texecom hardwired alarm system and I would like some help. Firstly I already own and I have prepared the cavity on my aluminum doors/windows for this magnetic contacts (https://www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/intruder-alarm-c-36/door-contacts-switches-c-36_44/knightbiased-flush-pencil-single-reed-6core-4k72k2-brown-p-4544.html) My question to you is (by your knowledge) is there any chance of interfering with the aluminum material? Aluminum is not ferromagnetic but is paramagnetic metal. I would appreciate any input on this concern
