Burglar alarm systems - any advice?

[reren]

Was recently broken into and want to get a decent alarm system - but have read some bad reviews of adt online - anyone have good experiences with a burglar alarm company? Don't seem to be many recommendations on the forum? Anyone used First Protection - got a card for them at callows on lordship lane?

We've used First Protection - can't recommend them enough - they were the one area we uncharacteristically did no shopping around for in our house refurb and were the bit we were the most pleased with! They did a great job, on time, were really friendly and great to deal with.

We used Banham, they installed a wireless system and it wasn't as expensive as i thought it would be, its connected through to their monitoring station - would reccommend!

I installed my own alarm. Make is Yale. Think I got it from homemade or online. Everything's wireless. So very east to install. Cost ?150. And phone my mobile and then the police. So has no monitoring to pay each month

If you are just looking for an alarm, I would be happy to install for you. If you want it monitored I used tonwork for a company called security by design and theirnwork is top notch. Most of their work is taking over aft systems that were poorly installed/maintained.....

First Protection have been very very helpful today, as alarm played up in yesterdays power cuts and we were really let down by alarm engineers. First Protection were very quick to help, send email confirmation, phoning to check time, and most genuinely helpful engineer arrived same day.
