More or less at that price..
If they use Bluguard GSM module, is around 600 to 700...
If use 3rd party module, can get around 500...

U want me quote u?

i dont mind having another paperwork to compare with. what i am after is a good installation. i have experienced some sloppy jobs and the alarm system rendered useless completely after 1yr due false alarm and connection to the sensor keep disc.

Guys, please be careful when it comes to BluGuard. Apparently there are different quality of BluGuard out there. The main component is the circuit board. BluGuard is Malaysian made home alarm system. However there is a cheaper "clone" version of the circuit board from China which cost only about RM300? The original locally made circuit board cost around RM900.
Please insist on the original board bcos it has built in surge protection mechanism. For originals, insist on the serial number and call up BluGuard HQ to verify the serial number.
China circuit board of BluGuard will "fry" easily if your house is prone to lighting strike zone. And the repair will be costly if not may even change the whole system.
So beware.

thanks for the heads up. lets say i can only verify the board serial after paying a minimum deposit, whatever it may be and turn out it was indeed a clone, that is a good as money down the drain, unless the installer willing to give the real deal.

wah cheap. mine v9 ard 2700 without gsm but with 24 points and concealed wiring n pir. maybe got ripped off a couple of hundreds like. no wonder so efficient the contractor. whats ur model ?
*
looking at 24 points you have there, its for semi-d size? i dont have the model but should be V16N. my price is much more cheaper compare to what i got from fair.

i believe V16N is 8 zones with expandable option and comes with partition. V9 only 8 zones with no expansion and partition options.
