PVC Door alarm contacts

[shanky887614]

thecontact allows a separation distance from magnet of up to 10mm. so a 5mm gap is ideal. going back to OP, fit like this, but with a clearance gap

bassically a gap like this is ideal, crap alarm though

TBH, i'd prefer to fit a shock sensor to the frame.

nope its worse, its wireless to a yale alarm.

you have 20 secs from entry to rip alarm off wall in hall and pull battery out XD.

there a waste of time, no notification on anything if they lose sync or battery dies.

ill pmsl if house gets burgled and alarm doesnt go off because of desynced/flat batteries

yale should stick to making locks and leave burglar alarms to them what know what they're doing. total crap. IMO.

looks like a steel door and frame. not really good alarm protection for a drugs den. and that magnetg would drain to useless faster than katie price dropping her knickers.

A famous company that used to fit radio alarms in a morning for vast amounts of money was the same. the batteries in the sensors would die at different rate and the zone would be locked out to avoid false alarming.
The customer I dealt with was not aware of this, and had not been instructed on the failure codes .
The alarm sounded it's timer in and out while the last door sensor still worked, when that died the alarm was completely dead.

jusrt another pointer. make sure that the reed is on the side of the contact that is closer to the magnet
