Choice 1

StarterKit or Basiskit?

The StarterKit is the compact starter set: a hub with a motion detector, a door contact and a remote control. Enough to secure an apartment or the main entrance of a home. The Basiskit is more extensive, with two motion detectors, two door contacts, a siren and a keypad, so that you cover an entire home with several rooms and entrances in one go.

Choice 2

With or without photo verification?

The Cam variants include a MotionCam motion detector that sends photos with an alarm, so you can see immediately whether something is really wrong. With the standard kits you can add photo verification later, provided your control panel supports it (Hub 2 and higher). If you want that certainty from day one, choose a Cam set.

Choice 3

Standard hub or Hub 2 Plus?

The Plus variants use the Hub 2 Plus, with an extra communication channel (wifi) and the highest capacity. The Hub 2 Plus also has a processor that is 4.5 times more powerful and 8 times as much flash memory as the standard Hub 2, so it keeps running smoothly and keeps receiving updates for years. Useful for a large or complex property where you want maximum redundancy. For an average home, a kit with the standard Hub 2 is more than sufficient.

Expand yourself

Prefer a tailored set?

If no kit fits your situation exactly, you can buy a hub separately and put together your own set with the configurator. This way you choose exactly the detectors you need and can easily expand later.

Frequently asked questions

Ajax kits

What is the difference between a StarterKit and a Basiskit?
A StarterKit is a compact starter set with a hub and three devices. A Basiskit is more extensive, with more detectors plus a siren and a keypad, suitable for an entire home.
What does the Cam variant mean?
In a Cam set, the motion detector is a MotionCam that takes photos when an alarm is triggered and sends them to the app, so you can assess a notification straight away.
Can I expand a kit later?
Yes. Every kit can be expanded to 100 devices (Hub 2 Plus even 200). You can easily connect extra detectors, sirens or keypads via the app.
Which kit suits an average home?
For an average home, the StarterKit 2 (Cam) is a good choice. If you have several rooms and entrances, the Basiskit 2 offers more detectors, a siren and a keypad.
Do I need a subscription?
No. All kits work with the free Ajax app, with no mandatory subscription. Only mobile back-up and alarm receiving centre follow-up are optional and paid.
