I purchased the yale smart alarm so I could monitor my villa in spain. It was easy to install no wires and connection was easy to router and all PIR and door alarms just need to be screwed to wall.

I am able to remotely set alarm with phone and take pictures

+ I get a log of events e.g who enters and leaves so I can see how long cleaners where in and when I rent when they arrive and leave

Safe.co.uk where the cheapest I could find and delivered next day very happy with the service.

I would recommend Safe.co.uk and Yale smart home alarm, it has been installed 6 months no issues false alarms and batteries still working in all PIR and alarm box

As we had experienced several burglaries in our neighbourhood, I bought the Yale system on the recommendation of a friend and I am glad that I did - I am very happy with it.

It was easy to work out exactly what pieces of kit I needed from the information on the website and the ordering process was very straightforward. The items were delivered within a couple of days.

Installing the system was very straightforward. I had lined up an electrician friend to help me, but I did not need him. I did it all myself with a little help from the wife when it came to testing whether or not components were in range - you need two people for that part of the installation.

We have now had the Yale system for some three months and it is working perfectly. I would not hesitate to recommend it.

Good product, the hardware works nicely all battery operated so no wires, connection to wifi system is easy and distance is good. Simply 2 screw per device. Window locks can be screwed or double sided tape.

The software app is very nice, works well, can add multiple phone or iPad devices etc so that everyone in house hold can arm or disarm the alarm.

There is a key pad should you not have your phone device available.

Instructions are readily available on iTunes as well.

The alarm kit was easy to order online, however some thought should be given to any extra safety devices needed when buying as the cost is higher when purchasing afterwards. It arrived quickly was well packed and almost ready to go. I would recommend that you read the instructions several times before installation. One you have done your reading things move quite quickly,with everything being tuned into the controller and you understand where each item is going installation is quite quick. Putting the door or window contacts can be fiddly but that is probably the door and not the unit. The walk test is simple, and a must do. When downloading the app you should be ready with all your information and record it in the instructions booklet. Reading the app can be daunting at first as things are not explained well at all. My advice is to play with all the buttons, you can’t break it! All in all it is a good system, no problems at all so far and we use it daily. I did forget to set it one day but of course the app allows access from wherever you are. I would recommend this system to anyone.

Installing an alarm should not be this simple!

Unboxed installed tested and working in around an hour

The app has worked faultlessly from the off and other than a couple of occasions where the alarm has failed disarm on our return home the alarm has also performed excellently. (This was using the keypad and we just had to re-enter the code on the keypad again).

I've even had the misfortune to experience a power cut whilst abroad but the alarm system informed me of the loss of power and confirmed all was OK when the supply was restored.

I've added a couple of additional components without any problem.

Easy to install by ourselves (quite low DIY level), and manage setup by our family members’ mobiles, the key and the hub, even by our neighbors, who we can leave our key to them, for the convenience of our guests when we are not in. We are very happy using this alarm to keep our home safe. We have installed the sensors and cameras at both entrances of our front door and back door. In addition of safety, it is very reasonable cost to use this type of high technology. We can manage our home alarm around the world, or let our family to control it.

Clear, easy to follow installation instructions made this simple and straightforward to fit. When I encountered something I didn't understand about the system, help was on hand at the end of the phone. This quickly resolved the issue. What I like most about the Yale system is the ability to tailor the alarm to meet changing needs, for example when I added additional sensors in a newly built extension.

The alarm system has proved super reliable so far, with no false triggers and every event being captured in the history.

Overall, I would definitely recommend this system if you are looking to install a comprehensive secure alarm.

The pack I bought from Safe was very easy to set up as all the components in the pack were already paired and thus making it very easy to set up as well the instructions that come with it was very straight forward to follow with no problem. Even though I am very new to DIY alarm I managed to set everything up within 45 minutes. I although managed to pair extra door contact sensors and PIR sensor to the existing kit and get them to work without any issues. The smart alarm is so efficient as I can control it from the app on the phone.

We are both good with DIY so had no problems fitting the outside alarm box, but for anyone not happy up a ladder or with drills etc then you would need some assistance to install this part of the system.

With regard to linking up the internal hub to the internet and individual items once in place, this was very easy and we hit no problems with it.

We had a few awkward windows and a front door to contend with as the upvc we have is bevelled but again we found the sticky pads included and the options to mount them worked well.

We like the fact that we can arm/disarm certain parts of the system to suit us and are pleased with how it all works.

We are pleased with the system and it’s also good to know we can add to it as suits.

The product itself it's quite good but it's a little bit difficult to be installed the way you may want to install it. Although the windows and doors sensors come with their stitchers if the two sides of the door/window arent on a straight line you will have to use screws to put them in place. PIR devices are not mounted on a flexible bracket so you have to set them up in a corner and hope the sensor covers all the zone you want to cover. This is annoying especially when it comes to the PIR camera that might not let you see all the area you want to monitor. Online Setup and usage are quite straight and easy to get used to them. Be careful that you HAVE TO already have got a working internet line otherwise you CAN'T set it up.
