Re: Help with new security system

[D B <boudreaud@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks to all for the advice.  I'll start researching the products you
all have suggested and see what will work out for us.  As for the fire
codes and doors, I'm lucky in that we have an architech to take that
responsibility off my shoulders, he knows all the codes for our city
and state and deals with that daily.

I've asked my company owner to use a contractor to take care of the
security system installation but he wants me to do the work.  I'm the
company systems administrator with prior electronics training so they
assume that I'm the perfect one to handle this job.  I installed our
video surveilance system with a digital DVR per the company's
direction and now get to handle the new security system as well.

Again, thank you for your help so far.  I hope I can ask additional
questions of you if needed in the future.

Sincerely,
Denis Boudreau
