Need to disable sensor (Paradox Spectra 175x-RF)

It may be years...maybe,,dunno I have short term memory problem sometimes.

Yah I have a solid contract...which reminds me that I need to re-write it...it's gotten too long over the years. I need to make it shorter and more easily read by normal people.

Still it's hassle when people modify their own stuff..that's why I lock the box too.

:-)

Me too. I keep scheduling appointments for an Alzheimer's test but I always forget to go. :^)

Just make sure your lawyer looks it over before you send it to the printer. If your attorney isn't a specialist in security system contracts, I'd suggest you buy a contract from someone who is.

I always locked the cabinet. Then I gave the key to the customer. :^)

I don't use printed contracts (I hate handwritten entries) I generate each contract from the computer all nice an neat..only handwriting on them are signatures. I also hate the feel of NCR paper...I'm phobic I guess.

I wrote my own contract and had it reviewed by my attorney...he said he wouldn't sign it so I guess it's good enough :-))

A friendly competitor gave me a copy of his installation and monitoring contracts many years ago. I made a few changes to comply with state and federal guidelines (3-day right of rescission, etc.) and handed it to an attorney who had done work for several other alarm companies in my area. He said it was fair but comprehensive and that it should hold up if someone tried to challenge it.

I first had it printed on bound, legal-size paper with carbons. That was OK but carbon paper makes a mess so eventually I reprinted it on 3-part NCR paper. The contract stood unchallenged for over 20 years so I guess it was effective.

When I started offering monitoring services via online sales I tried using mailed contracts. That was a royal PITJ. After a while I got the contract central station's contract sent to me as an ASCII text file. I input that to an MSW doc, added tons of fields for customer, premises, authorities and heyholder data and converted the whole shebang to a PDF -- complete with online digital signatures. The CS had their attorney look at it and he said it was fine. I used that for a few years until I decided to stop offering monitoring services.

Whatever works for you, right?

C'mon Jim, the industry has educated the public to the fact that security doesn't cost anything, and besides, keeping the beer cold and wearing clean skivvey's is worth a hell of lot more than doing what ever it takes to protect the most valuable asset a person owns, as well as their family, and all of the items that, no matter how much insurance you have, can't be replaced. Priorities, priorities. Thank goodness there is still some out there with their priorities in line.

I know Bass won't read this but,

How do you know how good it was if it was unchallanged. You could have got it out of a cracker jack box if that was the case.

I wouldn't have trusted that attorney since he was allowing his client to aid and abet an unlicensed contractor. Sort of put his own client in jeopardy.

Didn't that decission coincide with a visit from the DBPR?

I didn't quit work out for you, did it?
