Secware2 Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Secware_Tech6 Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 Initial points If you can cable you should. I would run cables to all detectors and more Any movement detector is best only detecting movement. Expecting a £30 device to tell the difference reliably between a pet and a person etc is asking for trouble. Yes they are sold as a feature but i would never recommend any of them for reliable catch performance and false alarm reliability You have to match keypads to control panels. I wouldnt recommend the texecom over say an spc or a dimension On the bigger panels you can connect upto 32 keypads depending on the panel specified Your installer will advise best on the equipment to use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
