Video Surveillance — AJAX Upgrade Specialist
Certificate № 1758776886102
Typical Migration Paths for Melbourne
While each site is unique, the upgrade logic is consistent — reuse healthy infrastructure, move control to a modern AJAX platform, and minimise disruption throughout.
The enclosure and PCB are decommissioned, but zone wiring is retained where practical. Door/window contacts and ceiling PIRs are mapped to the AJAX Hub via a MultiTransmitter, preserving your wiring investment.
Legacy keypads are replaced with an AJAX KeyPad at convenient entry points. Existing remotes are superseded by the AJAX app and, if needed, new key fobs/cards for clean, role-based access.
External sirens on legacy systems are commonly swapped for AJAX StreetSiren to ensure clean integration, health monitoring and reliable tamper detection.
MotionCam detectors bring visual verification to cut false alarms; LeaksProtect and FireProtect 2 extend safety beyond intrusion; outdoor coverage is added with perimeter devices — without trenching new cable.
Dual-path communication (Ethernet/Wi-Fi plus a cellular module where specified) keeps alerts flowing during local internet outages or NBN works common across Melbourne suburbs.
Process & Timeline: From Photo Audit to Cutover
Bosch, DSC and Hills takeovers run smoothly when scoped properly. Here’s exactly how SIPKO Security handles your legacy panel migration from first contact to cutover day.
Photo Audit
Provide clear photos of the panel/enclosure, keypad, siren location(s), and any outbuildings. An engineer identifies what can be reused and which AJAX parts are needed.
On-site Verification
We confirm zone counts, cable condition, power availability, RF conditions, and any height/access restrictions to validate the upgrade path.
Design & Mapping
Legacy zones are mapped to AJAX via MultiTransmitter or replaced with wireless where appropriate. Outdoor coverage, hub, keypad and siren placements are all planned.
Preparation
Devices are pre-programmed with user profiles, zones, and naming conventions so the on-site window is short and predictable.
Cutover Day
The old panel is isolated and removed, cabling is landed as designed, new hardware is installed, and the system is commissioned. Existing users are added to the app.
Test & Handover
We test arming/disarming, alarm paths, sirens, pet logic and camera verification, then provide a concise handover sheet and training.

Cost, Trade-in & What Drives the Budget
AJAX takeovers are cost-effective because you don’t pay to rewire your property. The total depends on a few clear drivers, so you only invest where it matters and keep the upgrade budget under control.
Key cost drivers
How many wired sensors can be kept vs replaced. Reusing healthy cabling and contacts reduces labour and avoids wall works.
Gardens, driveways and sheds often benefit from outdoor devices — added coverage without trenching new cable.
Number of MotionCam detectors for event-driven photo checks to cut false alarms and speed responses.
Dual-path communications (Ethernet/Wi-Fi + cellular) and any 24/7 monitoring requirements.
Smart lock / intercom integrations where required for unified alarm + entry workflows.
Compliance, Monitoring & Ongoing Support
For Melbourne customers migrating from Bosch, DSC or Hills, quality is not just about the new hardware — it’s about how the takeover is documented and structured. A licensed migration with a proper device list, zone map and user roles simplifies future maintenance and supports insurer discussions from day one.
Compliance & maintainability essentials
Work performed by qualified technicians, documented to local requirements.
Device list, zone map, event log policy, and role-based user access records.
Video-verification workflows reduce false alarms and improve response quality.
Health checks, firmware updates, and battery status reports keep the system in shape.
Annual/semi-annual visits test sirens, verify pet settings, and align perimeter to how you use the property.

Healthy wired sensors retained and re-enrolled
Enclosure & Power
Cabinet and 240V supply reused where practical
Siren Cabling
Existing siren runs assessed and reused or upgraded
A Bosch-to-AJAX upgrade in Melbourne typically takes one day for a single-storey home. You keep what works, replace what limits you, and walk away with a fully modern, app-controlled system — without a single wall opened.
DSC Alarm Panel Replacement with AJAX Hub 2 / Hub 4G
DSC PowerSeries and NEO panels are solid legacy systems — but they rely on a single communication path, lack app-first control, and can’t support visual verification. Replacing the DSC panel with an AJAX Hub 2 or Hub 4G brings your existing wiring into a modern, cloud-managed platform without touching a single wall.
AJAX Hub 2
Ethernet + Wi-Fi dual-path, supports up to 100 devices and 50 users. Ideal for homes and small offices where NBN is stable. Encrypted cloud, remote arm/disarm, full event log and OTA updates.
AJAX Hub 4G
Ethernet + Wi-Fi + built-in 4G cellular — three independent communication paths. Keeps alerts flowing during NBN outages. Recommended for monitoring-connected sites, larger homes, and any property where communication resilience is critical.
What Changes in the Replacement
The DSC PCB and keypad are decommissioned — everything else is assessed for reuse.
Panel & PCB Out
The DSC control board is removed and replaced with the AJAX Hub. The enclosure and 240V supply are retained where practical to minimise installation time.
Zone Wiring Retained
Existing zone cables are landed on an AJAX MultiTransmitter, mapping your wired door contacts and PIRs directly into the new hub — no re-cabling required.
Keypad Replaced
The DSC keypad is swapped for an AJAX KeyPad at the main entry point. Additional keypads or key fobs can be added for multi-user or multi-entry sites.
Siren Assessed
Existing external siren cabling is tested. Where compatible, it is reused with an AJAX StreetSiren for clean integration and tamper monitoring.
MotionCam Added
Where visual verification is required, AJAX MotionCam detectors replace or supplement existing PIRs — providing photo-on-alarm evidence to cut false call-outs.
App & Users Configured
All users are enrolled in the AJAX app with role-based permissions. Arming schedules, notification paths, and event logging are configured before handover.

Hard-Wired Alarm Conversion to AJAX Wireless System Melbourne
Older hard-wired alarm systems are reliable but rigid — adding a sensor means running new cable, and the control panel has no path to modern app management or visual verification. AJAX conversion reuses your existing wiring as the backbone while replacing the control logic with a wireless, cloud-managed hub. The result is a modern system built on infrastructure you’ve already paid for.
No App Control
Hard-wired panels rely on a physical keypad only. Remote arming, disarming, and event visibility require a full panel replacement — or so it seems.
Single Communication Path
Most legacy wired systems report via a single PSTN or NBN path. An internet outage silences the alarm entirely — no backup cellular path exists.
Expanding Coverage is Costly
Adding a sensor to a new room or outbuilding means running new cable through walls, ceilings and roof spaces — expensive, disruptive, and slow.
Full App Control from Day One
The AJAX Hub replaces the legacy panel brain. Arm, disarm, view live events, manage users and receive push notifications — all from the AJAX app on any smartphone.
Dual-Path + Cellular Backup
AJAX Hub 4G adds a built-in cellular module alongside Ethernet and Wi-Fi. Three independent paths ensure alerts reach you and the monitoring centre regardless of NBN status.
Wireless Expansion, No Cable
New zones — gardens, garages, sheds — are covered by wireless AJAX devices using Jeweller radio. No trenching, no drilling through walls, no disruption to your property.
Your hard-wired investment is preserved, not discarded. AJAX MultiTransmitter maps your existing zone cables directly into the new hub — so every door contact and PIR you’ve already paid for continues to protect your Melbourne property.
Reusing Existing Alarm Wiring with AJAX MultiTransmitter Setup
The AJAX MultiTransmitter is the bridge between your legacy hard-wired sensors and the modern AJAX wireless ecosystem. It connects directly to existing zone cables — door contacts, PIRs, glass-break detectors — and transmits their status to the AJAX Hub using encrypted Jeweller radio. Your wiring investment is preserved; only the control logic changes.
AJAX MultiTransmitter
Connects up to 18 wired zones to the AJAX Hub wirelessly. Supports NC, NO, and EOL resistor configurations — compatible with virtually all legacy wired sensor types.
Legacy Wired Sensors
Door contacts, PIRs, glass-break detectors and smoke sensors already installed in your property
AJAX MultiTransmitter

Alarm System Takeover from Defunct Security Companies in Melbourne
If your security company has closed, been acquired, or stopped responding — your alarm system is still running but you’ve lost support, monitoring, and the ability to make changes. This is more common than it should be across Melbourne. SIPKO Security takes over orphaned systems, assesses what’s worth keeping, and migrates you to a fully supported AJAX platform with no lock-in.
Common Situations We Resolve
Your monitoring centre closed or was sold. Alarms trigger but no one responds. You’re paying for a service that no longer exists — or worse, you don’t know if it does.
The installer code is unknown — locked to the defunct company. You can’t add users, change zones, or silence faults without the original installer credentials.
Beeping keypads, low battery warnings, or zone faults with no technician to call. The system is degrading and there’s no service pathway to fix it.
Some companies installed proprietary panels that only they could service. With the company gone, replacement parts and firmware updates are no longer available.
Your insurer requires a monitored, professionally maintained alarm. Without an active service provider, your policy coverage may be compromised at claim time.
How SIPKO Security Takes Over
We assess your existing system, recover what’s usable, and migrate you to a fully supported AJAX platform — with documentation, monitoring options, and no lock-in.
We inspect the panel, sensors, wiring and siren — identifying what’s functional and what needs replacing.
Where possible, we recover or reset installer access. If not, the panel is replaced with an AJAX Hub using existing wiring.
Healthy wired sensors are mapped to the AJAX MultiTransmitter. Faulty or aged devices are replaced with AJAX wireless equivalents.
We connect your new AJAX system to a professional monitoring centre — restoring insurer-compliant 24/7 coverage.
Full device list, zone map and user access records provided — so you own your system and are never locked in again.
AJAX is an open platform. You own your system, your data, and your monitoring choice — always.
Every takeover includes a device list, zone map and user access record for insurer and compliance use.
Your new AJAX system is structured for 24/7 professional monitoring from day one — insurer-friendly by design.
AJAX Alarm Upgrade for Melbourne Houses (Single Storey)
Single-storey Melbourne homes are the most straightforward Bosch, DSC or Hills takeover scenario — all legacy zones are on one level, existing wiring is reused via MultiTransmitter, and the entire cutover is completed in a single visit with no wall chasing.
Typical Single-Storey Zone Layout
One Hub Covers the Whole Property
A single AJAX Hub 2 or Hub 4G placed centrally handles all zones on a single level. Jeweller radio reaches every corner of a standard Melbourne single-storey home without repeaters.
Existing Wiring Reused via MultiTransmitter
All wired door contacts and PIRs from the legacy panel are landed on an AJAX MultiTransmitter — preserving your perimeter coverage without opening a single wall.
MotionCam in Key Interior Zones
Living areas and hallways benefit most from MotionCam — photo-on-alarm verification confirms real intrusions before any response is dispatched, cutting false call-outs.
Completed in One Day
Single-storey upgrades are scoped, installed, tested and handed over in a single visit. Most Melbourne homes are fully operational on AJAX by end of day.
Outdoor Perimeter Without Trenching
Garages, driveways and garden paths get wireless AJAX outdoor detectors — no cable runs, no concrete cutting, no disruption to landscaping.
A standard Melbourne single-storey home is the ideal AJAX upgrade scenario. Existing wiring is reused, all zones are on one level, and the entire system is live before we leave your property.
AJAX Security System Upgrade for Double Storey Homes
Double-storey Melbourne homes add planning considerations to a Bosch, DSC or Hills takeover — staircase coverage, upper-floor bedroom zones, and signal routing across two levels. AJAX handles this cleanly: a single hub covers both floors, existing wiring is reused via MultiTransmitter, and no new cable runs between floors are required.
Two Levels, One Takeover
Upper floors are covered by wireless AJAX devices communicating directly to the hub below. Existing wired sensors from your Bosch, DSC or Hills system on both floors are reused via MultiTransmitter — no new cable runs between floors, no wall chasing.
Signal Across Two Floors
AJAX Jeweller radio operates at 868 MHz — a frequency that penetrates timber, plasterboard and concrete floors reliably. Most double-storey Melbourne homes need no repeaters.
Staircase Zone Planning
The staircase is a critical internal zone — a single MotionProtect or MotionCam positioned correctly covers movement between floors, eliminating the need for multiple detectors.
Upper Floor Bedroom Perimeter
Bedroom windows on the upper floor are protected with wireless Door Protect sensors — no wiring between floors required, battery-powered and tamper-monitored.
Typically Two-Day Scope
Larger double-storey homes with extensive perimeter coverage or outdoor works may require a second visit. Single-storey-equivalent layouts are often completed in one day.
MotionCam on Both Levels
Living areas downstairs and a hallway or landing upstairs are the priority MotionCam zones — providing visual verification across both floors of the property.
Single Hub, Full Coverage
One AJAX Hub 2 or Hub 4G placed on the ground floor manages all devices across both levels — no secondary hub required for standard double-storey Melbourne homes.
Every double-storey upgrade is scoped on-site. Zone counts, signal paths and device placement are confirmed during the on-site verification visit before any hardware is ordered — ensuring the right coverage for your specific Melbourne property layout.
Strata & apartment-friendly upgrade. AJAX wireless installation requires no drilling through shared walls, no cable runs through common areas, and no strata approval for standard sensor placement inside your lot.
Apartment Alarm System Upgrade to AJAX Without Building Works
Apartments with legacy Bosch, DSC or Hills panels present unique takeover constraints — strata rules, shared walls, and no cable runs through common areas. AJAX is purpose-built for this: every replacement device is wireless, battery-powered, and mounts with minimal fixings. The old panel is removed and replaced with an AJAX Hub inside your lot — no building works, no strata approval required.
Front Door & Balcony
Door Protect sensors on the front door and balcony sliding door cover the two primary entry points of any Melbourne apartment — battery-powered, no wiring.
Window Sensors
Wireless Door Protect sensors on all accessible windows — including louvre and casement types — provide perimeter coverage without any wall penetration.
MotionCam Verification
A single MotionCam in the living area covers the main interior zone and provides photo-on-alarm verification — critical for apartments where false alarms affect neighbours.
Smoke & Leak Detection
FireProtect 2 and LeaksProtect extend safety beyond intrusion — covering kitchen, laundry and bathroom leak risks common in apartment buildings.
Dual-Path Comms
Hub 4G provides Ethernet, Wi-Fi and cellular backup — essential in high-rise buildings where NBN reliability varies and monitoring continuity is required.
Strata-Friendly Documentation
Full device list and installation record provided at handover — useful if strata management requests evidence of the security installation within your lot.
AJAX wireless devices mount cleanly inside your lot, communicate through walls without cables, and deliver app-first control, MotionCam verification and dual-path monitoring — all without touching a shared wall or common area across your Melbourne apartment building.
Townhouse Security System Retrofit with AJAX Wireless Devices
Townhouses with legacy Bosch, DSC or Hills panels combine the multi-level complexity of a double-storey home with the shared-wall constraints of an apartment. AJAX handles both — existing wiring is reused via MultiTransmitter, no cables run through party walls, and full coverage across ground floor, upper floor, garage and courtyard is achieved in a single takeover visit.
Ground Floor Perimeter
Front door, rear courtyard door, and all ground-floor windows are covered with wireless Door Protect sensors. No wiring through shared walls — each device communicates directly to the hub via Jeweller radio.
Upper Floor Bedrooms
Bedroom windows and any upper-floor balcony doors are protected with battery-powered Door Protect sensors — no inter-floor cabling, no drilling through the floor structure.
MotionCam on Both Levels
Living area downstairs and staircase or landing upstairs are the priority MotionCam zones — photo-on-alarm verification across both floors without a second hub or repeater.
Garage & Courtyard
Integrated garage doors and courtyard gates are covered with Door Protect or MotionProtect Outdoor — wireless, weatherproof, and added without trenching new cable.
No Cables Through Party Walls
Every AJAX device is fully wireless — no cable runs through shared walls to neighbouring townhouses. Jeweller radio communicates through internal walls and floor structures without any penetrations.
Siren Placement
AJAX HomeSiren mounts inside. StreetSiren is placed on the front facade or courtyard wall with a single power cable — no roof access, no shared-wall penetration required.
Most Melbourne townhouses are completed in a single visit. Existing wiring is reused via MultiTransmitter where present, wireless devices cover the rest, and the entire system — ground floor, upper floor, garage and courtyard — is live and handed over before we leave.
Rental Property Alarm Upgrade (Landlord-Friendly AJAX Systems)
Replacing a Bosch, DSC or Hills panel in a rental property is straightforward with AJAX — role-based user access means landlords retain full system control while tenants get arming/disarming rights only. No shared codes, no lock-in, and the system stays with the property when tenants change.
- ✓ Retain master admin access — tenants can never change system settings or add devices
- ✓ Remove tenant access instantly when a tenancy ends — no locksmith, no code change
- ✓ View full event log remotely — arming history, alarm events, and system health
- ✓ System stays with the property — no reinstallation between tenancies
- ✓ Supports insurer requirements for professionally maintained alarm systems
- ✓ Remote firmware updates and health checks without visiting the property
- ✓ Arm and disarm from the AJAX app — no physical keypad required
- ✓ Receive push notifications for alarm events and system status
- ✓ Key fob option for tenants who prefer physical arming at the door

- ✓ Multiple tenant users supported — each with their own app login
- ✓ Clear, simple interface — no technical knowledge required to operate
Full Admin Control
Arm & Disarm Only
Monitoring & Reporting
Common Rental Scenarios We Handle
We reset or replace the panel, enrol the landlord as admin, and set up tenant access with restricted permissions — clean slate, no legacy codes.
Old tenant users are deleted from the AJAX app in seconds. New tenants are enrolled with fresh credentials — no locksmith, no code change, no site visit required.
AJAX supports multi-property management from a single app. Each property is a separate hub — landlords monitor all sites, event logs, and system health from one dashboard.
A read-only manager role is configured — the property manager receives fault alerts and can coordinate service without any ability to change system settings.
AJAX systems are monitoring-ready from day one. We connect to a professional monitoring centre and provide the documentation landlords need for insurer compliance.
Property Manager Checklist
What SIPKO Security delivers on every rental property upgrade
Family Home Security Upgrade with MotionCam Verification Melbourne
For Melbourne family homes migrating from Bosch, DSC or Hills, MotionCam is the single biggest capability gain. Instead of a siren and a phone call, you get photo evidence of exactly what triggered — eliminating false alarms, speeding genuine responses, and giving parents real visibility when they’re away from home.
Cuts False Alarms
Photos confirm whether it’s a real intruder, a pet, or a curtain — before any response is dispatched.
Faster Real Response
Monitoring centres with visual evidence dispatch faster and with more confidence than audio-only alerts.
Pet-Immune Logic
MotionCam’s dual-tech detection ignores pets under 20kg — no false triggers from family animals.
Privacy Protected
Photos are only captured on alarm — not continuous recording. Encrypted and stored in the AJAX cloud.
Stay Mode
Arm perimeter zones while the family sleeps — interior motion stays off so kids can move freely at night.
App for Every Family Member
Each family member gets their own AJAX app login with appropriate permissions — kids can disarm, parents control everything.
Key Fobs for Kids
Younger children who don’t have smartphones can arm and disarm with a Space Control key fob — simple one-button operation.
Fire & Leak Safety
FireProtect 2 and LeaksProtect extend the AJAX system beyond intrusion — covering kitchen fires and laundry leaks in one platform.
- Front door Door Protect
- Hallway motion MotionCam
- Entry keypad KeyPad
- Living room MotionCam
- Sliding door Door Protect
- Windows Door Protect
- Rear door Door Protect
- Smoke detection FireProtect 2

- Window Door Protect
- Panic button Button
- Motion (optional) MotionProtect
- Garage door Door Protect
- Internal access Door Protect
- Leak detection LeaksProtect
- Driveway MotionProtect Outdoor
- Side gate Door Protect
- Outdoor cam MotionCam Outdoor
Legacy Bosch, DSC and Hills alarms tell you something happened. AJAX MotionCam shows you what happened — before you call anyone, before a guard is dispatched, before a fine is issued. It’s the single most impactful capability gain in any Melbourne takeover.
Small Business Alarm Upgrade from DSC to AJAX in Melbourne
DSC panels served Melbourne small businesses well — but they can’t deliver app-first control, after-hours remote arming, or visual verification. Upgrading to AJAX reuses your existing wiring and gives you a modern, manageable system without closing for a day.
- ✓ Existing DSC zone wiring retained via AJAX MultiTransmitter
- ✓ Remote arm/disarm for staff — no shared codes, role-based access
- ✓ MotionCam verification cuts false call-outs during trading hours
- ✓ Dual-path comms — NBN + cellular keeps alerts live overnight
- ✓ Monitoring-ready from day one — insurer-compliant documentation provided
- ✓ Completed outside business hours to avoid disruption
After-Hours Arming
Remote arm from anywhere — no staff needed on-site to set the alarm
Staff Access Control
Each staff member gets their own app login — remove access instantly when they leave
Visual Verification
MotionCam photos confirm real break-ins before police are dispatched
Compliance Docs
Full device list and zone map for insurer and lease requirements
Retail Store Security System Migration to AJAX (After Hours Protection)
Retail stores face the highest after-hours risk of any small business. AJAX migration delivers visual verification, instant app alerts, and dual-path comms — so you know exactly what’s happening at your store at 2 AM, from anywhere.
After-Hours Alarm Triggers
AJAX MotionCam captures a photo series the moment motion is detected after close. You see the image in your app before deciding whether to call police — eliminating costly false call-outs.
Entry Point Coverage
Front door, rear loading dock, and roller door contacts are all mapped from your existing DSC wiring via MultiTransmitter — no new cable runs through shopfront walls.
Staff Arming Schedules
Automated arming schedules align with trading hours. Staff arm/disarm via the AJAX app or key fob — no shared codes, and access is removed instantly when staff leave.
Dual-Path Monitoring
Ethernet/Wi-Fi plus cellular backup ensures your monitoring centre receives alerts even if the store’s NBN drops overnight — critical for high-value retail stock protection.
MotionCam is the defining upgrade when migrating a retail store from Bosch, DSC or Hills to AJAX. Photo evidence at the moment of alarm means faster genuine responses and zero unnecessary police call-outs — something legacy panels simply cannot deliver.
Warehouse Alarm System Modernisation with AJAX Wireless Sensors
Large floor plates, high ceilings, roller doors, and loading docks create unique security challenges. AJAX wireless sensors cover vast open spaces without cable runs across concrete floors — and MotionCam Outdoor protects perimeter access points around the clock.
High-Bay Motion Coverage
AJAX MotionProtect and MotionCam handle high-ceiling warehouse bays — wide-angle detection covers large open areas without multiple overlapping sensors.
Roller Door & Loading Dock
Roller doors and loading dock entries are covered with Door Protect sensors — wired contacts from the legacy system are reused via MultiTransmitter where present.
Perimeter & Yard Coverage
MotionCam Outdoor and MotionProtect Outdoor cover external yards, car parks and fence lines — weatherproof, wireless, no trenching required.
Fire & Leak Safety
FireProtect 2 and LeaksProtect extend the AJAX system to cover fire risk zones and plant room leaks — unified in one platform with the intrusion system.
Cellular Backup
Industrial estates often have unreliable NBN. Hub 4G adds built-in cellular — three independent paths keep monitoring active regardless of internet status.
Multi-User Access
Shift supervisors, security staff, and management each get role-based app access — arming schedules align with shift patterns automatically.
Office Security System Upgrade with AJAX Access Control Integration
Modern offices need more than a siren — they need role-based access, after-hours arming schedules, and integration between the alarm system and door access. AJAX delivers all three in a single platform, replacing legacy panels without rewiring the office.
Smart Lock Integration
AJAX Relay connects to electric strikes and magnetic locks — arming the alarm automatically locks the office, disarming unlocks it.
Staff Access Cards & Fobs
AJAX Pass cards and key fobs give staff physical access control — each credential is logged with a timestamp in the event history.
Arming Schedules
Automated arming at close of business — the system arms itself at a set time, with override capability for late workers via the app.
MotionCam in Server & Reception
High-value areas like server rooms and reception get MotionCam verification — photo evidence on every after-hours trigger.
AJAX Access Control Features
Unified alarm + access in one platform
One platform, one app. AJAX unifies intrusion detection, access control, and monitoring in a single system — no separate access control software, no third-party integration headaches.
Multi-Tenant Building Alarm Standardisation Using AJAX Platform
Mixed-use buildings with multiple tenants often have a patchwork of legacy systems — different brands, different codes, no unified monitoring. AJAX standardises the entire building on one platform, with separate partitions per tenant and a single management view for the building owner.
- Main lobby door contacts
- Lift lobby motion detection
- Car park perimeter sensors
- Building siren & strobe
- Shared AJAX Hub (building owner)
- Individual tenant partitions
- Separate arm/disarm per tenancy
- Tenant-specific app access
- MotionCam in each tenancy
- Independent event logs per tenant
- Single app — all tenancies visible
- Master admin across all partitions
- Building-wide event log
- Remote health monitoring
- Monitoring centre connection
One Platform
All tenancies on AJAX — one app, one monitoring contract, one service provider
Tenant Isolation
Each tenant controls only their partition — no visibility into neighbouring tenancies
Unified Compliance
Single documentation pack covers the whole building for insurer and council requirements
One Service Call
SIPKO Security services the entire building — no coordinating multiple alarm companies
AJAX multi-partition architecture is purpose-built for mixed-use buildings. Each tenant gets independent control while the building owner retains master visibility — all managed from a single AJAX app across your Melbourne property.
Hospitality-specific upgrade. Cafés, bars and restaurants have unique security needs — late-night close, high staff turnover, and cash handling. AJAX handles all three without disrupting trading.
Hospitality Venue Security Upgrade (Cafés, Bars, Restaurants)
Hospitality venues close late, have high staff turnover, and handle cash — three factors that make a modern, manageable alarm system essential. AJAX replaces legacy panels without closing the venue, and gives owners real-time visibility from anywhere.
Late-Night Close Arming
Staff arm via the AJAX app or key fob at close — no shared codes, and the owner receives a push notification confirming the venue is secured.
High Staff Turnover
New staff are enrolled in seconds; departing staff are removed instantly from the app — no locksmith, no code change, no site visit required.
Cash Handling & Safe Areas
MotionCam in the back office and near the safe provides photo verification on any after-hours trigger — critical for insurance claims involving cash theft.
Multiple Entry Points
Front door, rear lane entry, and cellar access are all covered — existing wired contacts reused via MultiTransmitter, wireless devices added where needed.
Kitchen Fire Risk
FireProtect 2 in the kitchen and storage areas extends the AJAX system to cover fire risk — unified with intrusion in one app and one monitoring connection.
Recommended Device Layout
Typical café, bar or restaurant configuration
Installed outside trading hours. All hospitality upgrades are scoped and completed outside business hours — no disruption to service, no downtime during trading.
AJAX MultiTransmitter Setup for Existing Wired Alarm Zones
The AJAX MultiTransmitter is the technical bridge that makes Bosch, DSC and Hills takeovers possible without wall chasing. It reads the state of each existing wired zone — door contacts, PIRs, glass-break detectors — and transmits that information to the AJAX Hub using encrypted Jeweller radio. Your legacy cable investment is preserved; only the control panel is replaced.
Zone Cables Landed
Existing zone wires are disconnected from the legacy panel and landed on the MultiTransmitter terminal blocks — no new cable runs required.
Loop Type Configured
Each zone is configured for its loop type — NC, NO, or EOL resistor — in the AJAX app during commissioning. Mixed loop types are supported across zones.
Enrolled to AJAX Hub
The MultiTransmitter is enrolled to the AJAX Hub wirelessly. Each zone appears as an independent device in the app with its own name, group, and alert settings.

In most cases, yes. Door/window contacts and many ceiling PIRs can be retained and brought into AJAX via a wired zone interface, eliminating the need for new wall work.
No chiselling is required. We reuse existing cable runs and mounting points wherever practical. New units require only small fixings in selected locations.
Legacy keypads are replaced with an AJAX KeyPad with advanced arming options. External/internal sirens are typically upgraded to AJAX sirens for clean integration and health monitoring.
Most single-storey homes are completed in one day. Large homes, outdoor/perimeter projects, or multi-tenant sites may require additional time.
The system can be specified with dual-path communications (e.g., Ethernet/Wi-Fi plus cellular module) so alerts continue during local outages.
No. MotionCam provides event-based photo verification only when an alarm is triggered, helping confirm whether a threat is real while preserving privacy.
Yes. Users can be added with roles and permissions, and every action is logged for accountability.
We provide installation documentation and can design for 24/7 monitoring if required by your insurer, making it easier to demonstrate the level of protection in place.
