put Nest Detect and its open-close magnet so they
work properly
Here are more things to consider before you install
Nest Detect on a wall, window or door
Mounting with adhesive strips

installed on smooth, flat surfaces only

at least 30 seconds
The adhesive strips shouldn't be used on surfaces
painted with low-VOC or zero-VOC paint or any
