Hardwired Security Systems

Hardwired security systems are cheaper on average because the cost to produce the individual sensors and keypads are cheaper. This makes maintaining a hardwired system much more cost-effective in the long run, but one downside to a hardwired system is the amount of work needed to install one of these systems. Hardwired systems are by no means simple to get up and running from start to end and typically have installers do it for them. This extra expense of having to hire somebody to install the system for you may increase the cost to have the security system in the first place more expensive than a wireless system.

Wireless Security Systems

Wireless security systems seem to cost more upfront because the parts are more expensive, however, modern-day wireless systems are very DIY friendly, meaning that they are very straightforward to install.
