Brinks systems are basically trash. Do yourself a favor and replace it with something more user & installer friendly.

I just moved in to a house with a Brinks system already in it. My uncle is a professional alarm installer, so I had him look at it. He said the system wasn't very good, and he put in a real nice one for me. I helped him do it, and really learned a lot. Brinks commercials make it seem they are the best, but my uncle says they really don't do a very good installation. He showed me some reasons, and we took some pictures of our installation, and of the Brinks wiring that we removed. You can see the pictures at

I guess my uncle was right. He said it looked like the Brinks guys were in a big hurry, or maybe they just didn't care about their system.

That's pretty bad, but better than most Brinks installations I have seen.

That is one of the best Brinks installations I have ever seen. With large companies like Brinks you really get what you pay for. When a company pays $8-$10 a hour to it's non english speaking employees, this is the quality of work you expect.

First rate garbage.

You'll not likely find anyone here who can help you very much.

If you're not up to doing it yourself, get someone in to evaluate what you've got to see if any of it is salvageable ........... then work from there.

Wow those are better than most Brinks jobs I've ripped out.
