Hi Peter, Thank you for your message.

The full features of Qolsys panel requires alarm.com subscription and as it is a graded system, they are designed to be installed and maintained by professional installers.
Not all installers have managed to sign up to Alarm.com and as one of the largest Qolsys installers in UK, we have taken over system maintenance and alarm.com subscription for a large number of customers who are stuck without being able to connect to the app.

It is a fantastic system and a real upgrade from the standard Visonic panels and VisonicGo app. It also gives you the option to connect to hundreds of third party devices via Zwave integration. If you are still considering using Qolsys and require assistance with Qolsys alarm.com subscription, please do get in touch and we will be happy to assist.

Many thanks,
Emma

hi looked to upgrade from a powermaster 30 to the qolsys panel when i got one it seems it can only be installed by professional installers, and i have had to return it, i was annoyed the you tube tutorials all give the impression you can do it yourself maybe in the us yes in the uk you are tied to alarm.com and they won’t allow you to have a contract unless you purchase via an alarm company which defeats the whole principle, has cost me time and money have opted to return to visonic panel 360rw which i will now have to learn how to disassociate/unlink form my old alarm unit ive been informed after i purchased one !

Comment on 17 Things to consider when buying a Yale Alarm by FHA Comments

In reply to Nikhil Kumar.

Hello Nikhil,

Unfortunately, as Yale alarms are DIY systems, they only come with one communication module built-in and does not allow for replacing or adding another type of module. Depending on the model of your Yale alarm, you may still be able to replace the control panel with one that supports broadband ( smart phone app) connectivity or GSM (sim card) connectivity and get it programmed to all other devices. If that is not an option, unfortunately you will have to replace the whole alarm for a new one.

With such issues, we would recommend a professional grade alarm, as most of our customers going through similar issues can simply add a new communication module and get the system working as before.

Hope this helps.

I have Yale security system but it has only landline connection option. Will it be possible to connect through mobile or wifi router? I am planning to disconnect my landline as it is getting expensive now. Appreciate any suggestion.

In reply to Bob.

Hello Bob,

Both Visonic Powermaster 30 and Texecom 64 are excellent alarms, meeting same British Standards. Visonic range has superior wireless signal strength and longer battery life. If you opt for the IP module communication option (connection via the smartphone app to control the alarm), Visonic’s app is free. And Visonic panel and sensors look modern in comparison to Texecom panel. Please get in touch and our team will be happy to give you a fully customised quote for your property.

Many thanks,
Emma @ FHA Security

I’m looking at getting a wireless alarm but can’t make my mind up over a powermaster 30 or a texecom 64 wireless, which is best?

Comment on Should I buy or lease my home alarm system? by Olivia Anna

Olivia Anna — Thu, 06 Apr 2023 06:16:48 +0000

Hi there! I like what this article mentions about whether should I buy or lease my home alarm system. Some companies are offering alarm systems on a lease, while some are selling them outright without any contracts. It can be overwhelming and difficult for some of us to decide which one is better. I’ll have to keep this in mind when looking at different types as I really would like a comparison of home alarm systems offered by different security providers. Thanks for telling me to buy or lease my home alarm system.
