Fire & Security Systems

wow, where to begin? We recently bought a building (a foreclosure/bankruptcy)that had a fire monitoring system in it from this company. They had a lease which was paid on for 5 years at $ 650 a month $ 39,000. The company sent us a bill for the $ 650 a month and expected us to continue to pay them this much (probably what put the last guy out of business). This building had leaky roofs, humidity problems, and had been unoccupied for almost 3 years, their equipment had been held under horrible conditions and was 5 years old. they wanted us to pay $ 17,000 to buy the ABUSED equipment or pay the $ 650 a month. We priced out a brand new system for $ 10,000 — $ 14,000. I offered them $ 11,000, which I thought was generous and they refused it. I asked them what a box of old used equipment would be worth after I take it out and give it back to them, the president of the company said they would just reinstall this equipment in a new business. This may be your business if you are thinking about using this company. They tried to strongarm us by going to the fire department and disconnecting us, and then told me that they were coming to take their equipment out including their wires in the wall and all the pipes in my walls, and «yes there would be natural damage to my walls when they did this». I refused them entry and told them I will have their equipment removed by my new alarm system provider, and they still tried to force their way into my building. Because they were greedy they turned down $ 11,000 and instead will get a box of garbage equipment
