Spec me...an alarm system please

an alarm system please.

Budget £150

I want a system with a control box and keypad, an external alarm with strobe, one infra red detector and two window/door sensors. if it has dialing facilities all the better.

I have found a wireless unit by Yale, which seems quite good, however I want something the same but wired into the mains to save on batteries and forgetting to replace them.

Any ideas?

Yellow pages, burglar alarms, home security.

Give me strength !!!

I would rather purchase and install myself, so would prefer somewhere online as that will be cheapest. If you have no help to give, save your energy. :rolleyes:

Wireless systems arent worth tha hassle. Install a wired one using a galaxy panel and parts.

Thanks, I'll have a look into them.
