My current and real system
Here is my home alarm system. We built the house when I was pretty young but there is not much more that I would ever want in a house so I would have to say I am living in my dream home, alarm system aside I love where I live! Initially there was a conventional multi-zone FireLite sensiscan 2000 but I have upgraded the system completely. Questions? Ask away!

The lack of pull stations are because they are not required by the LAHJ. This is just a very large home, not a business.
Pulls are located only in the basement, service kitchen, and by the private “service and delivery” entrance which would not be used by guests.
System is monitored by both a private alarm company using both conventional phone line as well as a cellular transmitter. Monitoring is backed up by a town monitored radio box.
There are devices I missed or miscounted I just based this off my documentation and did a count off the top of my head. I did a handful of updating and changes to it over the summer after some work was done around the house.
I like my work and the system to be as low profile, and as invisible as I can make it.
