Replacing old light switches taught me a trick for hiding alarm wires

I was updating the switches in my living room and had to fish wires through the wall. It clicked that the same method works for running alarm sensor cables neatly behind drywall. Using a flexible rod from the electrical job, I can now avoid visible wires on door and window sensors. This small change makes installs look much cleaner for homeowners.

Is hiding alarm wires really that important? Most homeowners just care if the system works, not if the cables are totally out of sight. Using a flexible rod from another job seems like extra work for a small detail. Do we need to fuss over wires that most guests won't even notice?

Man, a clean install always gets a happy nod from my clients.

My friend Jake's home inspection flagged his visible alarm wires immediately.
