The second biggest market I fit alarms for are for people who have
just
been burgled.

Do you typically fit a particular brand / model under those
circumstances and if so what?

I fit Texecom stuff. Usually the R8.


That's helpful as I've been dithering about a wired alarm. But I was
leaning towards one that offered a "follower" setting and can't see
that in the R8 manual. Any recommendations please among those that do
- eg Texecom's Premier range?



By "follower" setting do you mean a zone that will sound the alarm
immediately if that is the first zone that is activated but would
otherwise not immediately sound the alarm if you have already activated
another zone?

eg zone one is the front door contact and zone 2 is the hall PIR and the
keypad is in the hallway and you enter via the front door.


Yes, that's it.

Or am I completely missing the point?


No, I think you've decoded my probably **** poor explanation of what I
wanted. In mitigation, I've never owned or installed a proper alarm system.
