RECESSED DOOR CONTACT
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The 2GIG Recessed Door Contact (2GIG‐DW20R‐345) is the industry's
most flexible supervised door contact. It communicates with the 2GIG
Control Panel using the 345 MHz wireless frequency. It also allows a
multitude of applications while hiding the transmitter within a door or
window frame. It is powered by a replaceable lithium battery, which
should last five (5) years under normal usage.

Verify that the package includes the following:
• 1—Recessed Door Contact
• 2—Plastic Door Contact Covers
• 2—Plastic Two‐Hole Screw Mount Contact Covers
• 2—Phillips Head Screws
• 2—Plastic Magnet Caps
• 1—Rare Earth Magnet
• 1—Lithium Battery
Installation Guidelines
Before mounting the door contact to the desired location, test the
sensor to verify that it can establish good radio frequency (RF)
communications with the control panel.
NOTE:
To learn how to program a wireless sensor into the Control
Panel and for testing information, see the Control Panel's
Installation & Programming Guide.
Guidelines include:
• Mount Sensors within 100 ft (30 m) of the Control Panel.
Although the transmitter may have a range of 450 ft (137.2 m) in
open/unobstructed situations, the environment at the installation
site can have a significant effect on transmitter range.
• Install the Recessed Sensor in the Door or Door Frame. It is
important to select the proper placement of the recessed sensor/
transmitter and magnet. The sensor comes with two different
tops, however, the screw mount is recommended for securing the
sensor to a door frame. The magnet does not have a second top
with a flange to screw it into place so you must be extremely
careful to ensure that the magnet is tightly in place upon
installation.
• Use Screw Mount to Secure the Sensor to a Door Frame. The
magnet does not have a second top with a flange to screw it into
place so you must be extremely careful to ensure that the magnet
is tightly in place upon installation.
The door contact can be mounted in either the door jamb or door
frame. The best practice is to mount it in the door frame.

slightly larger than 11/16".
Use the flanged cap with the included screws to mount the

recessed sensor into the door or window frame.
Drill a matching hole for the magnet, directly opposite from
