Various mounting positions that will work for attaching Sensors to doors:
Door frame is higher than door. To bring Bracket in alignment, slide spacer onto the Magnet.
Bracket on angled door frame and Magnet on door
.
Place Bracket at 90º angle to Magnet on door.
Insufficient Mounting Space:
If your door frame does not
provide enough room for
mounting the Bracket, you may
need to use a Sensor Extension.
Metal Doors and Windows:
If you are mounting a Magnet to
a metal door or metal window,
install a Spacer under the
Magnet to maintain
performance.

Add Spacers (If Needed)
If Bracket and Magnet do not align within 3/4”, add Spacers to either the Bracket or
Magnet to make them level.
Example: Spacer added to Magnet to close the gap between the Bracket and Magnet
to within 3/4”.
Spacers slide on Brackets and Magnets.
