Smart Shield Systems
2GIG Gun Motion Detector
Know immediately if a stored firearm is disturbed. The 2GIG Gun Motion Detector™ combines a 3-digit combination trigger guard with a built-in wireless motion sensor that notifies your security panel (and the Alarm.com app) when the firearm is moved. It’s California DOJ Gun Safety Device–certified, designed for unloaded firearms only, and communicates on 345 MHz with up to ~350 ft open-air range.
Why Choose This with Smart Shield Systems
- Pro setup & training: we enroll the detector to your panel, set notifications/automations, and review safe-handling practices (device is not a substitute for a safe).
- Compatibility verified: we confirm operation with your panel—GC2, GC2e, GC3, GC3e, or EDGE—and label events clearly in your app history.
- Reliable performance checks: range testing where the firearm is stored (closets, safes can attenuate RF), battery documentation, and periodic functional testing.
- Fits your collection: form factor designed to fit many handguns, rifles, and shotguns; we confirm fit before commissioning.
