Has anyone bought any alarm systems from Argos. I'm thinking about getting one and installing it myself. Are they any good?
 
Bought one for our last house. Think it was called Response. (Bit ironic, that). Wireless system, so easy to install. External alarm with batt, internal PIR sensors and codepad, all with tamper proofing. System optionally extendable. Simple to fit. Found it reliable, not prone to false alarms once properly set up.

Only thing was, no one in our quiet rural area paid any attention to the thing going off! not the company's fault, of course, but think what you want it to do.

Better maybe to go with a monitored system, or at least one that will dial your mobile, activate a viewcam etc. Depends what you want.
 
They work, but quite low quality, the sounders arent that loud, they're very basic.. Get a price of a recognised installer, and ask your insurance company how much it will come down with a certified alarm. Might just be worth the extra few quid..
