Honestly kinda tickled me - in the most fucked up way

Teh manual
All firefighter codes are 1111 this also works for gated communities
Lol
Hacking a fire alarm is more like a prank
Unless you actually want to clear out a building

^ something I learned a long time ago
Firefighters get special access codes that are literally just all ones - most pins are 4 digits - there's no need to remember various numbers, possibly get confused, or waste time hunting and pecking for the right digits.... It works on more than just gated communities, but I thought that would be the best example.
