Original Brinks system, monitored by ADT, upgrade options for web/phone control
I have an older Brinks system installed in 2008. ADT took it over when they bought Brinks. All wired sensors. 4 doors (2 piggybacked) and 5 motion sensors. The keypad is a BHS 3000 premium as far as I can tell. I do not see any labels or markings on the panel.
I would like to upgrade to something that can be controlled via phone app and website. ADT wants to charge me $900 for a new wireless system. I told them I want to use the existing wired sensors and they dropped the price to $700. But they won’t tell me what equipment they will be installing, so I can not tell if it is a good price or not. I suspect it isn’t. I told them I may just find an installer for a competitor and they would give me a better price for a new install. The reps then offer to connect me to the “loyalty department” who never answer and I get hung up on after being on hold for an hour. This has happened 3 times.
What options do I have and is it worth it to stay with ADT? I don’t really want to convert to a wireless system for all kinds of reasons.
Images of my equipment are here:
Thanks.
