Default Extending an alarm wire

Hi All

We have a house alarm keypad which needs moving. Unfortunately the wire is not long enough. Can I simply solder another bit of alarm wire to it to extend it? Probably about 1m.

I seem to recall somewhere that the resistance of the cable run is relevant hence the question.

Thanks in advance

Lee.
