Door/Window Sensor
Smart door and window sensors are compact devices designed to detect the opening and closing of doors and windows in a home or business. They typically consist of two parts: a sensor and a magnet. When the door or window is closed, the sensor and magnet are aligned; opening the door or window breaks this alignment, triggering an alert or action.
These sensors are key components in smart home security systems. They can send notifications to your smartphone if a door or window is opened unexpectedly, allowing you to monitor entry points remotely. Many models integrate with other smart devices, enabling actions like turning on lights or activating cameras when a door or window is opened. They also contribute to energy efficiency by helping manage heating or cooling based on window positions.
Smart door and window sensors are easy to install, energy-efficient, and compatible with various home automation systems, making them a popular choice for enhancing security and convenience in smart homes.
