Default Factory Alarm

Anyone here have the factory alarm (or maybe even an aftermarket alarm)?

I would assume the factory alarm works similar to a non-factory alarm in when the car gets broken into that the alarm will sound? Furthermore, you have to push a button on your 'remote' to deactivate the alarm.

If this is the case then my questions is...will the alarm deactivate when you walk up and pull on the door handle to open it (if the door is locked). One of the things I like about the FOB is that I don't have to pull it out of my pocket to unlock the doors. I can just walk up to the door (with FOB on person) and open the doors. Will having the factory alarm eliminate me from doing that? Will having the factory alarm require me to pull the FOB out of my pocket to deactivate the alarm and open the doors?

I guess I should ask the question about activating the alarm too. Will pushing on the black button on the door handle active the alarm?

Thanks
