Title: Decorative intruder alarm bell box
Post by stocksie on Sep 10^th, 2009, 6:45pm

Can you lot help me out,I've trawled the net and I cant find 1 anywhere and yet I see them on properties pretty regular and not just the ADT ones.
The client will have a full stainless steel one or just a chrome effect plastic one will do.
I have seen one of the chrome ones but It didnt seem to allow the strobe to shine through as it was a cover over a standard white plastic type.
Its a lovely house worth about a Mill so I manky plastic bell box wont cut it. :o

Many thanks :)

I was recommended to look at Texecom bell boxes for polycarb but while I was googling I bookmarked these metal ones from CQR. No idea if they are any good though.

Thanks mate but its more for effect than how robust it is.
Stainless or chrome to match in with outside lights etc.....its an absoloute bugger to locate.

The ADT S/S bells are all manufactured by Elmdene. They are nice bells, I've got one on my place.
