A Closer Look – Open Sensor
The Open Sensor comes bundled with a battery of its own, some more rawl plugs, and two 3M pads. The pads are great for PVC mounting, while the screws are better suited to wooden door and window frames.
There’s not really a lot to look at here, the thing looks just like those basic magnetic sensors you get with most alarm systems and well, that’s because it is one of those things. The difference here being that it has the wireless tech to pair with the Gateway, that’s where all the magic happens.
On the back, both have flat surfaces that are great for the 3M adhesive, and you can screw the other part on if you feel the need.
Just like the Move Sensor, a space for the battery, a pairing switch and a coil on the edge for the magnetic trigger.
