Magnetic Contacts Light Brown

A standard hardwired magnetic door and window contact used to detect when an entry point is opened. Finished in light brown to blend with wooden frames, it is commonly integrated into conventional home alarm systems, including compatible Paradox Security setups.

CORE FEATURES:

• How it Works: Uses a large ferrite magnet. When the door or window is closed, the magnet keeps the internal reed switch closed. Opening the door breaks the magnetic field, which triggers the alarm.
• Gap Distances: Typically features a take (close) distance of around 22 mm and a break (open) distance of 26 mm.
• Design: Compact, shockproof housing designed to withstand vibrations.
• Compatibility: Operates on a closed-circuit system commonly found in traditional, hardwired alarm installations.
