Simply brilliant! Just drill a recess in your door or window and the magnet flush mounts to be invisible. The reed switch segment is similarly mounted into the door frame or window frame & wired into your system. Available in two versions to suit timber or metal frames with both versions normally closed contact.

Contact operation:

Contacts are closed cicuit when the magnet is alongside the switch. For alarm installation this is denoted as the "normal" state as the door/window is secure and the alarm is armed.
