What this service can include
The accepted work depends on the property, equipment and findings. Repairs, new installations and specialist responsibilities are identified in the agreed scope.
Planning the work for your equipment and property
An interconnected home alarm project should account for the existing devices, property layout and what must happen when an alarm activates. Start with the current system rather than selecting individual devices in isolation.
Define the household alarm installation
A monitored fire alarm system and household smoke/CO alarm wiring can have different scope and qualification requirements. Guardian confirms the accepted electrical scope before work is agreed.
List existing devices and planned property changes
Device information, property layout, addition/remodel plans and any existing monitored-system provider.
Coordinate any monitored-system responsibilities
Compatibility, power/interconnection arrangements, access and whether a separate alarm-system contractor is involved.
What helps us prepare an accurate scope
Send existing alarm models, replacement plans and any system documentation.
The proposal is shaped by:
- Device models and compatibility
- Power and interconnection arrangement
- Access and alarm-provider scope
Include the full property address and who can authorize access and work. Photographs should be taken only from safe, accessible positions; leave electrical covers in place.
What to expect from the next step
- Review the equipment and request.
We review the requested change or reported fault alongside the existing installation, equipment information and access conditions.
- Agree the electrical scope.
We explain the proposed work, what it includes and any separate equipment or other-provider responsibilities. Additional corrective work requires approval.
- Plan access and scheduling.
We discuss access, any interruption to power and applicable permit or inspection requirements for the actual work before scheduling.
- Complete the agreed work and checks.
We complete the accepted electrical scope, check the relevant installation and explain the findings, operation and any follow-up.
Project quotes are free; fault-finding and service calls can have a diagnostic charge, explained before booking. See how quotes and diagnostic visits work.
Questions about this service
Is household alarm wiring the same as a monitored fire alarm system?
They can involve different scopes and qualification requirements. Identify the existing system and provider so the accepted work is clear.
What helps with a remodel or alarm upgrade?
Send the property layout, device information, proposed changes and any monitored-system contact. Device compatibility and responsibilities can then be reviewed.
