Re: Re: Alarm Failure



Sums it up really, the council probably installed the cheapest, crappiest alarms they could, n training for the users and no maintenance then when they keep going off no one uses them, another waste of money and a blot on systems which d work and the companies who install them.
 
A reliable audible alarm is far better than non at all, they should not give false alarms if installed, maintained and used correctly. One thing is for sure if you are broken int the burglar will not wait around with the alarm going off and you won't come home t find someone in the house as you walk in. A nice loud sounder inside as well as the one outside is a must.
 
I wonder how many people who install their own systems actually carry out any maintenance or even know how to?

Me too. Andrew @ comfort seemed t think it strange that i haven't got a siren connected but the council fitted free alarms to 90% of the properties opposite. No body takes the slightest notice of sirens unless they repeat long enough and then residents took it upon themselve to silence it by knocking the bell box completely off the wall.

I only have comfort calling me on the mobile.
