There are some installers listed in the sticky here.

Also take a look at this thread.

It will give you links to the PSA register of all licensed installers.
Always get at least 3 quotes. Ensure you compare like with like . Insist on a visual survey so there will be no surprises later. Ask for everything in a written quote.
If your looking for a fully wireless system I would recommend Visonic.
For a hybrid system Siemens 4000 range or HKCs Securewave.

I would go for the HKC Quantum, it can take up to 70 two way wire free devices which is more than you will ever need. Cost wise anything from €930 up. There are cheaper systems on the market but this is well above them. It can be self monitored by you on your land line if you have one installed, so no monitoring fee per year.
