These are the most frequent issues Australian homeowners encounter that require a alarm system installation, along with whether each is a realistic DIY repair or a job for a licensed professional.
Repeated false alarms are caused by PIR sensor sensitivity set too high, sensors detecting pets, air conditioning draught across detector faces, or degraded sensor batteries. Most panel control software allows sensor sensitivity adjustment — an alarm technician can remap sensor zones and adjust sensitivity without replacing hardware. Three false alarms in 24 hours may trigger a police attendance fee in some Australian states, so addressing false alarm causes promptly is important.
Alarm panels communicate to monitoring centres via PSTN landline (being decommissioned), cellular 4G or IP (internet). Panels on PSTN connections that have been converted to VoIP (NBN) frequently lose communication — a cellular or IP communicator upgrade is required. A licensed security installer can upgrade the communicator module without replacing the entire panel or rewiring the sensors.
Most Australian insurers require alarm systems to be installed and monitored by a licensed security company to qualify for a premium discount — DIY systems without professional monitoring generally do not qualify. The alarm system must be grade-rated (Grade 2 residential, Grade 3 commercial) and monitored by an Australian Security Industry Association Limited (ASIAL) member company to satisfy most policy discount conditions.
