Though I hesitate to say so after shameless plug they recently posted here.

Installation is quick and easy.  Various door contacts and motions
available and it's also compatible with Honeywell wireless.

Programming is menu driven and very intuitive.

Easiest all in one wireless system I've ever done.

If you do have any problems, tech support is quick to answer and they
act like they really want to help.

It also does z-wave devices such as lights, thermostats and combination
door locks.

For your application maybe a light to come on when it goes into alarm
and the door locks are just cool.  You can lock/unlock all your doors
from the panel - I think that's pretty cool.

Use the Kwikset locks but be sure to follow the instructions.  If you
do, they go together quick and easy.  To initially register them into
the panel you will need them about 3 ft away, but after that the regular
wireless range applies - Plus each z-wave device will repeat for other
devices that may normally be out of range.  For a normal residence it
should not be an issue.

There are other brands - the Yale locks are more attractive but they are
more complicated, the instructions omit important stuff and their tech
support is horrible.
