Re: Suggest for placement of ADT/Ademco wireless window sensors

["Crash Gordon" <webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We install them in the wall for jobs like that, then fish the wires down to
the transmitter...and charge a lot extra for it.

Biggest question here is the house looks like NEW construction....like still
under construction...like why didn;t it get wired?

| If you use wireless transmitters on your windows, and the blinds are in
the
| way, the transmitters will either be mounted on the the window frame as
you

the
| installers to do? Do a little magic trick just for you?
