 Home alarm upgrade - legacylad
My domestic burglar alarm is 22yo, installed as a new build.

The back door key pad, used 100% of the time rather than the main control box, has keys which ‘stick’ after non use for several weeks. It takes 10 mins+ poking the keys with the 4 digit code before the alarm turns off ( I always forget the keys on the main control box as I never use it)

All I want is a replacement key pad, but two local alarm installers inform me it isn’t possible....I need a new control panel, keypad, bell box, key fobs ( is that really an upgrade?) and 4 replacement PIRs...cost £380 + VAT.

There was me thinking a squirt of switch spray or new key pad would sort it. What happened to mend and make do ?
