Wireless system

Ajax wireless alarm

A simple, fully wireless, app-first alarm - a good fit for properties that want an easy day-to-day system without hybrid wiring.

Control methods

Smartphone app as the primary platform, plus an optional remote keypad and key fob (also usable as a panic button).

Modern design

Sleek, minimal devices with a clean, contemporary look that sits discreetly in any modern home.

Standard equipment

Pet-friendly PIR motion detectors, door contact sensors, an alarm hub with internal sounder, and a 115dB external siren.

Monitoring

24/7 dual-path monitoring included as standard, so the system stays connected even if one communication path fails.

Monitoring hardware

LiveTalk audio-response equipment

The hardware behind AMCO's audio-response monitoring - works with both the Premier Elite and Ajax ranges. See how LiveTalk works step by step.

Speaker/microphone unit

187mm x 123mm x 43mm, white finish, with a red LED activity indicator. Units can be added in blocks of 4 for larger properties. Typically installed centrally (e.g. in a hallway) for the best coverage.

4-channel design covering intruder, fire, panic and medical activations. Available with a fixed terminal or optional IP capability, plus optional GSM backup. Fits discreetly inside the alarm panel and is compatible with most current systems.
