Hi just thought i would give some feedback.
I ordered a kit with enough add ons to cover two properties that we have that are next to each other. Four doors, two motion and two smoke alarms alongside the 4 keyfobs. Received a welcome email so I had already downloaded the APP before the kit arrived. Kit came at around 11.00am and I set all the bits and bobs up in around an hour. I made a plan and named the sensors on a peice of A4 paper to show where each sensor was going to be placed, this helped name them on the APP too. Took around another hour to screw,stick and make good the hardware. All worked out the box as expected and I would rate the quality off all the fixings and fittings and hardware that was supplied.
I bought this kit to replace a Yale set up we have had and so far am happier with the Guardfather kit for a number of reasons. One reason the Yale remotes are either easy to press in a pocket or you have to fiddle with a teeny tiny switch that switches the remotes off, the Gaurdfather ones are of a much better design. The Yale kit had issues with the App and also had battery back issues with the control unit from month 10 and we never really got it sorted fully, this clearly is early days for the Guardfather kit so fingers crossed we get a better life from the back up battery.
All in all the ease of set up, due to the easy-to-watch and follow video above has made this kit a doddle to fit and set up. Thanks very much and fingers crossed the cameras are not long in coming. Cheers. Paul Robbie, REVERSEE Ltd.

I’m not usually one for DIY tech stuff but this was surprisingly straightforward. Took my time, followed the videos, and it all worked first time. No complaints — the wife’s happy too which is always a bonus.

Love my Guardfather system!
Super easy to set up (even for someone like me), and I feel so much safer knowing I’m in control without any sneaky subscription fees. The YouTube guides were a lifesaver, and support was quick and helpful when I needed it. Genuinely recommend it!

Really impressed with The Guardfather system.
I found it easy to set up thanks to the clear YouTube videos, and I like that I’m not tied into any monthly fees. It feels good to actually own my security system and be in full control of it. The support has been excellent when I had questions, and the whole experience has just felt honest and straightforward. I’ll definitely be sticking with Guardfather.
