Re: Will any company install a WIRED home security system in a finished house?



It's a matter of time and how much money you want to spend. Yes, wired is
better (unless you have rodents, no attic, concrete slab, tile floors, etc)
but will cost you more on labor less on equipment. Wireless on the other
hand the equipment is more expensive, but is much cheaper to install
(shorter time) and there's a small overhead cost of replacement batteries
every 3-5 years.

And wireless is very reliable these days, 20 years ago it was a different
story; we'd spend 3 days wiring a house with 2 guys that we could do now
with wireless in 4-5 hours.

Takes yer pick.
