    Intruder alarm wired in cat5e?

    Only had cat5e on my van, I know it is dearer etc than alarm cable, just needed to get it done there and then. 4 twisted pair. Wired 3x pirs, 1x door contact, 1x sounder. Will it work ok? I know it is twisted & solid, not stranded & untwisted. In this instance, will I be ok?
