Mounting the Recessed Contact
For internal contact operation, the transmitter and magnet assembly should have a maximum of 1/2 inch between
the housings after installation. Refer to the Magnet Gap Distance section for additional information. When
mounting on metal (ferrous) surfaces, this distance is slightly less. For door installations, it is recommended the
transmitter be mounted in the door frame and the magnet assembly be mounted in the door. If the transmitter is
installed in a metal door frame, the communication distance to the receiver may be reduced.
