EAC Fire & Security recently completed a wireless intruder alarm installation in Broadstone, Poole, replacing a non-functioning Visonic alarm system with a modern Orisec security system.
The residential property was previously maintained by R U Secure, and the existing Visonic intruder alarm was no longer operational. Rather than continue relying on a faulty system, the customer opted for a complete replacement to provide reliable security throughout their home.
Our engineers removed the old system and installed a new wireless Orisec intruder alarm, including remote keypads, dual-technology motion detectors, pet-friendly PIR sensors and door contacts.
Removing the Old Visonic Intruder Alarm
The property had an existing Visonic alarm system that was no longer functioning correctly.
An alarm that has stopped working cannot provide the protection homeowners expect. Depending on the condition and age of the equipment, replacing an older system can sometimes be more practical than attempting further repairs.
Following the assessment, our engineers removed the non-functioning Visonic equipment in preparation for the new installation.
At EAC Fire & Security, we regularly carry out intruder alarm maintenance, repairs and system takeovers for customers with existing security systems, including those previously installed or maintained by other companies.
Installing the New Wireless Orisec Intruder Alarm
The replacement system was designed to provide comprehensive security coverage throughout the Broadstone property.
Wireless Orisec Alarm System
We installed a new wireless Orisec intruder alarm to replace the outdated equipment.
Wireless technology allows security devices to communicate with the main alarm system without requiring extensive new cabling throughout the property.
This makes it a practical choice for established homes where homeowners want to minimise disruption to their existing interiors.
Remote Alarm Keypads Throughout the Property
Multiple remote alarm keypads were fitted at convenient locations around the home.
These allow the occupants to operate their security system without always having to return to the main control panel.
Strategically positioned keypads provide easier access to alarm controls, particularly in larger properties with multiple entrances and living areas.
Dual-Technology Motion Detectors
To provide comprehensive internal detection coverage, our engineers installed dual-technology motion sensors in suitable areas of the property.
Dual-technology detectors use two different sensing methods, typically passive infrared and microwave detection, to help distinguish genuine movement from environmental conditions that could otherwise cause unwanted activations.
These detectors are particularly useful in areas where dependable movement detection is important.
Pet-Friendly PIR Motion Sensors
The installation also included pet-tolerant PIR motion detectors.
These sensors are designed to reduce the likelihood of smaller household pets triggering the alarm when correctly selected, positioned and configured.
This allows homeowners with pets to benefit from motion detection while reducing the risk of unnecessary alarm activations.
The photographs from this Broadstone installation show the discreet white detectors fitted high on internal walls, blending into the property’s existing décor.
Wireless Door Contacts
Door contacts were also installed to monitor access points around the property.
These devices detect when a protected door is opened while the relevant alarm zone is armed, providing an additional layer of security alongside the internal movement detectors.
By combining door contacts with dual-technology and pet-friendly PIR sensors, the new Orisec installation provides detection across different areas of the home.
Why Choose a Wireless Intruder Alarm?
Modern wireless intruder alarm systems offer several advantages for residential properties.
Minimal disruption: Wireless detectors can be installed without extensive additional cabling between devices.
Flexible positioning: Sensors and keypads can be positioned according to the property’s layout and security requirements.
Pet-friendly options: Suitable PIR detectors can help reduce unwanted activations in homes with pets.
Convenient operation: Additional keypads make the system easier to control from different areas of the property.
Ongoing maintenance: Routine servicing and battery replacement help keep wireless security equipment working reliably.

The Completed Intruder Alarm Installation in Broadstone
With the old Visonic equipment removed and the new Orisec system fitted, the property now has a replacement wireless intruder alarm installation covering its key internal areas and access points.
The installation includes multiple remote keypads, dual-technology detectors, pet-tolerant motion sensors and door contacts throughout the home.
This project is another example of how EAC Fire & Security helps homeowners upgrade non-functioning security equipment without unnecessary disruption.
