Essential Info

Use this heavy-duty magnetic Garage Door Contact Switch on garage doors, roll-up doors and other doors or gates where it may be difficult to mount regular magnetic contacts. Smaller magnetic switches have a small operating gap where the contact and magnet must be within half an inch for reliable operation. While those switches are fine for most doors and windows in a home, they just won't cut it for larger doors. These contacts can be as far as 2 3/4 inches apart and still operate.

    Product far exceeding my expectation. I would recommend this product to anyone. Rugged, well design, features, mounting, ease, was excellent..
    DAVID -- tijeras, NM   6/25/2011
    Great for garage door contacts for security systems.
    STEVE -- tempe, AZ   4/18/2011
    Would have bought the normal combo package but I wanted extra I/O Lincs, installed in the normal way as garage door monitor and works great. This is a quality switch I expect will last forever.
    MATTHEW -- la jolla, CA   2/12/2011
    Works fine, easy install, good range of magnet position on door-mounted part.
    TYLER -- rochester, NY   12/17/2010
    Great high quality rugged design, works perfectly!
    MICHAEL -- mcdonald, PA   8/16/2010
    Switch worked great. In conjunction with the X10 Univeral module (2010) was able to quickly setup an x10 module to close the garage door if open.
    KEVIN -- niceville, FL   3/29/2010
    Works great... and the adjustable bracket allows for quite a few mounting options. Recommended.
    PAUL -- highland heights, KY   12/16/2009
    With the PowerFlash and a magnetic contact my 'garage door open alert' is working again-- and no batteries required!
    DANIEL -- crown point, IN   10/25/2009
    Excellent product. Will be ordering more of these this month. I used same in my old house ( 8 yrs no failures ) thats why I cam back.
    Frank -- newport beach, CA   9/24/2009
    Easy to install, and with an I/OLInc and Houselinc's new email alerts I get an email notice when our garage door is open - very nice
    MICHAEL -- manorville, NY   9/21/2009
    solid, well made, easy to adapt,wires in bx , accepts wide gap, not succeptable to swingers
    WILLIAM -- pensacola, FL   5/7/2009
    Product was just what I needed, it was simple to install and price was good.
    BRENT -- bakersfield, CA   4/23/2009
    Great product. Like the fact you can do NO or NC with the one device.
    JAY -- westerville, OH   3/12/2009
    Mounting this unit can be challenge if you don't know how to work with concrete. But after it's installed, it works like a champ!
    STAN -- kirkland, WA   3/6/2009
    Got what I ordered one day early! This unit can be wired for normally open or normally closed operation. SmartHome is a great company to work with, would recommend to my friends and family. Thanks again.
    ANIELLO -- shirley, NY   11/1/2008
    good quality, heavy duty. used this contact to only have a simple home relay onlyclose the garage door. The normally open contact breaks the connection to the door opener
    JOHN -- lake orion, MI   9/18/2008
    Mounted at top of door. Out of the weather and no traffic. Works like a charm.
    JoeC -- New York   10/14/2011
    Excellent....Design & switch packaging excellent-rugged. The gap is over 2.5 inches..That is helpful on aging/twisting doors. The bracket on magnet is great and can be adjusted..The engineering behind the product is well worth the price!! Also the flexibility of N/O vs. NC is excellent.
    Dave -- pittsburgh, PA   7/15/2010
    I am pleased with the build quality of this contact sensor. This sensor and the N/C-only version #7455 is designed to mount to your garage floor on either side of the door, with the magnet attached to the door itself. If you are not intending to mount it on the floor, save some $$ and buy a regular magnetic contact switch instead i.e. #7133, 77415, which can easily be attached to the top edge of most garage doors.
    Dennis -- sydney, Australia   12/31/2008
    What a great product.. Could not find product in Australia downunder with duel N/O or N/C circuit. Security for garage door. Great. Easy installation. Now have peace of mind, when garage door monitored.
