Door & Window Contacts — Specs, Brands & Hong Kong Installation

Magnetic reed contacts for metal gates, aluminium windows, shutters, and internal doors.

Door and window magnetic contacts for Hong Kong metal gates and aluminium frames

What this sensor does

Contacts report open/close status the moment a door, gate, or window moves. They are the first line of entry protection on almost every Hong Kong alarm we install — especially metal gates in shared corridors and shop roller shutters.

Honeywell 5816 is our most-used wireless contact for finished flats. Bosch ISN-CMET-4418 is the wired wide-gap choice for steel gates and shutters on G-series and Solution panels.

  • Surface mount for typical HK frames
  • Wide-gap options for thick metal gates
  • Wired Bosch and wireless Honeywell 5800
  • Tested at full gate travel, including ajar positions

Hong Kong / local context

Factory magnet gap limits are often exceeded on local metal gates. We carry spacers and alternative magnet kits.

Contacts on shared-corridor gates are usually mounted inside the flat to reduce vandalism.

Installation notes

  • Clean metal surfaces before adhesive or screw mounting; verify RF supervision on wireless models.
  • Name each zone in English or Chinese on the keypad so occupants know which opening triggered.
