Home Monitoring suggestion
 

Hi,

I just purchased a home recently and needing some advice on my home security. I was planning on adding monitoring to it, but unsure if I could keep the current system. And usually what type of home insurance discount does adding monitoring give.
So currently the home has a full Brinks home security system ( not wireless) with all the standard features (2 control pads, motion, door and window sensors).
I'm also adding a DigiMerge DH200+ digital video surveillance system with 4 HD Dome cameras, so I can have access to the house on my Iphone.
The question is, would I benefit from also getting monitoring to my current system?! And if so, which monitoring company can I use with my current Brinks system and DigiMerge surveillance system?!
:)

Well my dvr and first set of cameras arrived.... Looks pretty good! Now I just need to pick up a IR camera for the garage and a outdoor PTZ Camera , I'll be set! If anybody have any good suggestion on where to pick up those cameras it would be much appreciated, or about the home monitoring question!
Thx

I have a Foscam setup at my home. Simple IR camera to watch the driveway/garage/front door. Was cheap, and easy to setup :thumbsup:

Usually 10%? and you get a discount on the deductible.

I am not sure about connecting those DVR system to the wider internet. Most of them I came across have some serious design issues with security.

Check where the Control Unit of the Alarm panel is, if its a standard Honeywell Ademco or DSC PC3050 or Lynx Touch, then any alarm company can monitor it, if you want, PM me and i can help you find it. there are lots of cheap solutions with an existing Alarm system

I don't take possession till mid July , I'll give you a hallor when the date nears!
Thanks!

He said it was Brinks, so proprietary in all likelihood. Call them or be prepared to replace panel & keypads and pay for programming labour with another company.

Did a search for brinks.... Did they go out of business on there home security department, and does that mean there are no more parts for my brink system ?!
