Overhead Garage Door Floor Alarm Switch

This overhead door contact switch mounts on the track and pairs with an adjustable magnet bracket to monitor garage door position. It is built for installers and homeowners adding a wired sensor to an existing alarm panel or smart-home input module. The heavy-duty die-cast aluminum housing withstands daily vibration and weather exposure in residential and light-commercial settings.

18-inch armored cable and 3-inch operating gap

The sensor ships with an 18-inch PVC cable protected by an armored sleeve for routing along the door track. A wide 3-inch magnet-to-switch gap tolerates track flex and misalignment, reducing false alarms while still detecting when the door leaves the closed position. The closed-loop circuit opens cleanly when the magnet moves away, giving a reliable zone signal to the control panel.

Adjustable magnet bracket included

An adjustable mounting bracket holds the magnet, allowing fine alignment during installation without drilling new holes. The package contains one complete contact-and-magnet assembly, so no extra parts are needed for a single-door installation. Installers can secure the switch to the track and position the magnet on the door for immediate operation.

Questions about this item

Will the 18" cable reach my existing alarm panel if the track is far from the control box?

The sensor ships with an 18" PVC cable that has an armored sleeve; measure the distance from your track mounting point to the panel to confirm the length is sufficient.

How can I verify the switch is operating correctly once installed?

With the garage door closed the magnet sits next to the switch and the loop is closed; opening the door pulls the magnet away and the loop opens, which your alarm panel will show as a zone fault.

Does the package include mounting hardware for the track and magnet, or must I supply my own screws?

The box contains one complete assembly — heavy-duty track contact with polished aluminum die-cast housing, magnet on an adjustable bracket, and the 18" armored cable — so no extra parts are required for a standard installation.
