Strips Guard is an ultra-thin contact sensor and the thinnest magnet sensor in the world, detecting if your doors or windows are open or closed and featuring a design so sleek it disappears right into the architecture of any installation scenario. Strips Guard sends an alarm signal if it detects the opening of any door or window and due to its slim and discrete design, can also be placed in cabinets, on drawers or even behind artwork as an activity sensor. Its unique design allows it to be easily placed almost anywhere, generally in most places where other sensors simply can’t fit. Strips Guard is an extremely reliable contact sensor. The unique design makes it easy to place nearly invisibly in your home to alert occupants of any open/close or activity event when connected to your Z-Wave smart home system. Strips 700 Series Guard can be used both indoors and out, and the integrated custom battery gives Strips an expected lifetime of 10+ years.
