What is your favorite brand of alarm system to install or your favorite wiring scheme? The nice thing about this forum is that you have the freedom to discuss what you want, without the fear of it offending a particular product or line that is sold by a host site. There is no host site for this alarm forum and therefore no pressure to push products that have profitable profit margins. Just a friendly community of experts and enthusiasts volunteering their time to help you get the most out of your Do It Yourself home security project. We do ask, however, that forum rules be observed. Please do not engage in advertising or bashing.

If you are a Do It Yourself home security novice, feel free to browse the postings to help you become more familiar with the many alarm system components and what benefits you may receive from a particular system. For instance, some systems can be set up and programmed to call law enforcement upon triggering but this may not be available on every system and might not be exactly what you want or need. If you are unsure of what you need, post what you want to accomplish with your system on the alarm forum and check back for a response. You might be surprised what you will find out.
