Hard Wired
or
Wireless

(62.4 percent) of residential burglaries in 2005 took place during the day, between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m.
 



Hardwired alarm panels are less expensive than wireless panels, but they are harder to install. Keep this in mind if you are planning on doing the installation yourself. An average home installation with a hard-wired system takes about 12-16 hours. A typical wireless installation will take less than 4 hours.

Another consideration is that some types of construction lend themselves well to a hardwired installation, and others will require the use of wireless. Normally all commercial alarms are hardwired, and a large percentage of residential installations will utilize wireless.

Even if you purchase a wireless alarm panel, most installations will require that some of the devices are hardwired. These typically include the power transformer, the electrical ground wire, the telephone connections and any keypads/arming stations and audible alarms. There are some exceptions to this like some of the newer all-in-one units currently being offered which incorporate the base unit, arming station and audible alarm into a single unit that plugs into one of your existing phone jacks.
