Heavy Duty Wired Alarm Garage Door Magnetic Contacts Switch Sensor NC with Adjustable Bracket

Bought these, as opposed to cheaper, smaller, plastic ones, as they had good reviews, appeared to be fairly heavy-duty, and yet were basic switches I needed for my dry-contact firmware for a home automation device (RATGDO for anyone counting). They are significantly larger than the small plastic ones, but since I've had them installed (maybe ~ a year now) they are rock-solid and just plain work. Love the wrapped metal cabling at the end, which makes me feel they are more durable (and they probably are), and I mounted them with 3M double-sided tape, to the aluminum rail and framing of my garage door.

I used this product to replace an older set of alarmed garage door magnetic contacts that were of much lesser quality and had failed...I was concerned about the strength of any replacements until I found this product online. I must say, I am very pleased with its quality, ease of installation and performance. I highly recommend it. It can be purchased in a NC (normally closed by the magnet) or NO (normally open by the magnet) depending on customer need.

I needed a strong magnet for my wireless garage attic stairway alarm module. The magnet was weak and tiny. I used this maginet it it is strong and fixed the situation immediately. Its worth the price for the magnet alone.

I recently purchased the Heavy Duty Wired Alarm Garage Door Magnetic Contacts Switch Sensor NC and I have to say that I am overall satisfied with its quality and durability. The adjustable bracket makes it easy to install and the NC function provides peace of mind knowing that if the door opens unexpectedly, the alarm will sound. However, I was disappointed to discover that the product did not come with any concrete or masonry hardware to attach it to a concrete floor. This added an extra expense and inconvenience as I had to purchase additional hardware separately. Additionally, the wire was too short to reach my desired location, but this can be remedied with a longer wire. Overall, the product is well made and I appreciate its durability. I would recommend it to others, but with the caveat that it does come with some limitations

Muy bueno

I have six of these industrial grade garage door sensors in use and have had great luck with the reliability. You don’t have to mount them on the floor to work, they also work great at the top of the door.

Satisfied with sensor for garage door. Original sensor must have been defective and was old. Alarm would go off after leaving house.

I got this to use with the Zooz Zen17 to connect to hubitat to replace the MyQ integration that kept failing once or twice a year. I connected these to the Zen17, and I JB Welded them to my garage floor (not sure I'll ever be able to get them off, but whatever). They work great! Exactly as described. Reports the garage doors open and closed perfectly.
