Smart Shield Systems

Thin Door/Window Sensor(DW10)

A slim, surface-mount wireless contact made for tight trim. The 2GIG-DW10-345 is only ¾″ wide, uses a strong rare-earth magnet, and supports both the built-in reed and an external N/C input—so one sensor can provide two zones of protection. It’s fully supervised, battery powered, and designed for reliable 345 MHz performance.

Thin Door/Window Sensor(DW10)

Why Choose This with Smart Shield Systems

  • Clean installs that last: we align the magnet for the correct gap, label zones clearly, and test supervision/tamper so you get dependable alerts.
  • Two-zone setups when useful: we can use the internal reed for the door/window and the external input for a second contact (e.g., a screen or top sash).
  • Right hardware for your panel: need encryption? we’ll spec the DW10e-345 eSeries version for supported systems.
