    https://www.proutsecurity.com/ came recommended to me by the Gardai. Cost about €900 to get mine installed including a GSM module so I get a text any time the alarm goes off. The text service cost about €90/year.

    It's a HKC control panel which also has an app that informs me any time the alarm is set or unset and you can use it to set/unset remotely.

    Very neat and tidy.

    Also, on your house insurance form do NOT say that the house is alarmed. It will only reduce the premium slightly but if your house is broken into and the alarm was not set you will not be covered.

    Byrne alarms in Drogheda installed my alarm about 18 months ago. I was very impressed with their service.

    They also install a HKC panel which connects to an app, so the alarm can be set or unset remotely.
