Mount the open/closed sensor
We recommend you to mount the magnet unit on a door, window, or medicine
cabinet, and mount the sensor unit on its respective frame.
NOTES
• Make sure the mounting surface is clean. A textured surface or any imperfections to a
smooth surface can keep the mounting tape from making a strong bond.
• Make sure you align the magnet unit with sensor unit when mounting.
• The distance between the sensor unit and magnet unit must be less than 1 cm
(0.4 inch).
• The door images in this installation guide are for conceptual reference only.
TIPS
• If there is a difference in level between the door, window, or medicine cabinet and its
respective frame, or the frame is too narrow or has some decorative molding, you can
choose to mount the open/closed sensor with spacer. You can also mount the magnet
unit on the frame, and the sensor unit on the door, window, or medicine cabinet instead.
• You can choose to mount the sensor unit with mounting tape first, and then use screws
later if you decide to mount it at that location for long term.
