Window alarms work using a contact sensor and a magnet. The contact sensor attaches to the stationary window frame and the magnet attaches to the moving part of the window. When your window is opened and contact between these two pieces is broken, the window sensor sends a signal to your control panel, and the alarm is triggered. Vivint window sensors can also be used on doors. In fact, installing door and window alarms is one of the 10 simplest ways to secure your home.
You can install window sensors yourself, but we recommend professional installation to ensure speed and accuracy. Vivint window sensors are mounted using a strong adhesive strip on the back, making them easy to set up and secure. Give us a call to schedule your installation by a Vivint security expert.
