Heh. I've had a couple salesmen I've had to almost physically remove
from my house.
Sort of fun actually. Gets the blood flowing.
Strange thing is, these types do a lot of sales.

I knew I was in trouble last week when he came in the first time.
Motormouth.
Had no interest in what *I* wanted .... only what he sold.

Another issue came up during this morning's visit. My only concern about
the system is that by default they program a 45 second entry delay on the
front door. Purpose is to allow you to open the door, enter your code and
disable the system. Typical home or business setup.

Only problem is that my shop is so small that in 45 seconds I could walk
away with almost half the guitars hanging on the wall. I timed it. 45
seconds is a long time.

I asked if that time could be shortened to 10 or 15 seconds. He said "No.
45 seconds is required by law."

I said, "That sorta defeats the whole purpose of the alarm system. In 45
seconds I could remove half of what's in here."

He insisted. The Law.

When I called the tech support later I asked about this. She said the
default is 45 seconds however I could request it be shortened to as little
as 10 seconds by filing a request. No charge.
They can even make it no delay and you use an FOB key to remotely disarm it
before opening the door.
