[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 509418, member: 250"] Agreed... :Salute but I can understand some situations where it could be beneficial... If you had a commercial system and you want to prevent a disgruntled / incompetent employee from messing it up... Or.. If you are providing a maintenance contract to keep a system working... Or. If you are a landlord and want to ensure that DIY-Bob, Google-is-your-guide, tenant, hasn't been playing around to reset a system... Then it can be useful having a secure code that cannot be overridden or disabled, so you know you can get back into a system. BUT... for the vast majority of domestic alarms where a homeowner has paid for a system, they should have full access to all aspects of that alarm... So they can choose to either manage the system themselves or seek professional help if they prefer.. And NOT be tied to the installing company for certain functions... With domestic alarms I install, the homeowner is given all access codes and booklets/guides etc.. It's their choice if they want to come back to me... or seek alternative assistance for later maintenance.. I look at it a bit like anyone who has bought a car can choose where they get it serviced.. or do it themselves! (They should not be tied to going back to the place they bought the car).
