==Bonus Information==
This store uses System Sensor "SpectrAlert" H12/24W (white) remote horns as door alarms, which are also original. They are set to code 3, electromechanical, which likely causes issues, since the fire alarms most likely sound exactly the same, but they are not connected to the fire alarm system.
