Skil-Care Universal Door/Window Alarm – 5/PK
Skil-Care™ Universal Magnetic Door & Window Alarms (5-Pack)
Magnetic Contact Sensor Array, Selectable Chime/Buzzer Alerts, Tool-Free Heavy-Duty Adhesive Mounting, and Automatic Rearming Circuitry
Monitoring door and window access points is a critical safety measure for home care settings, long-term care facilities, and memory care units where wandering or unassisted exit poses a risk. Hardwired security systems can be costly and difficult to install, while complex digital monitors often require complicated pairing steps. The Skil-Care™ Universal Door & Window Alarm 5-Pack provides a practical, tool-free perimeter monitoring system designed to deliver immediate audible alerts whenever a monitored entryway is opened.
Operating via a magnetic reed sensor array, each compact module activates the moment an unauthorized door or window opening breaks the magnetic connection. The side selector switch allows users to choose between a gentle entry Chime, a loud security Buzzer, or complete System Off. Designed for instant installation without drilling, each unit features heavy-duty adhesive backing that mounts securely to wood, metal, or vinyl frames. The smart internal circuitry automatically resets and rearms once the magnetic sensor returns to its closed position. Supplied with 1.5V AG13 button cell batteries included for every module, this 5-unit pack offers a complete multi-point perimeter alert solution.
