I am a locksmith and alarm installer. There is only one brand that I sell over the counter for do it yourselfers. It's wireless and is very easy to install. It's made by Linear. There are two panels. Linear DVS1200, a 12 zone panel, and a DVS2400, a 24 zone panel. Unless you are doing all of your windows, most people opt for the 1200 model. It handles door and window contacts and motion detectors. The panel resembles a desktop business phone and can be wall mounted. The only wires needed are for a plug in transformer and a phone connection if you choose. The installation instructions are really good. I've installed many of these systems and they are very reliable.
If you aren't a DIY type of person, do yourself a favor and hire a local security specialist. A Linear system installed with say 4 doors and 2 motions will run you about $900. This is professional equipment with a very fast modem if you choose monitoring. Monitoring should run about $20-$25 a month.
