Control panned is large and sort of clunky.

Reply from Brinks Home Security

Hey Bill, we’re sorry to hear that you aren’t satisfied with our control panel and we appreciate you taking the time to leave us feedback. Our control panels also serve as a central base station for all of our equipment so unfortunately they are a little large, but on the bright side you won’t have to deal with an additional base station lying around the house like many other security companies. If you’d like, we do have wireless control panels on our store that are a lot slimmer that can connect to your main panel. Thanks and please let us know if you have any questions.
