George Risk Industries 112-12-B Mini Surface Tab Switch Set

Product Description

The George Risk Industries 112-12-B is a mini surface-mount tab switch set supplied as a single unit. Designed for low-profile installation on door and window frames, this type of switch set is used to complete or interrupt a circuit when a door or window opens or closes. The compact tab-style actuator mounts flush to the surface, keeping the profile discrete within the protected opening. Finished in brown, the 112-12-B is suited for installations where the switch must blend with wood or similarly toned frame materials. This component is typically installed by security alarm technicians, electricians, or experienced low-voltage installers.

Mini surface-mount tab switches of this type are used in residential and light commercial security, access control, and alarm systems. They are commonly installed on door frames, window sashes, and cabinet panels where a recessed or plunger-style switch is not practical. The brown finish makes the 112-12-B appropriate for natural wood, painted wood, or similarly colored frame surfaces where aesthetic integration matters alongside function.

Installation Notes

Installation of low-voltage surface-mount switch sets should be performed by a qualified alarm technician or licensed low-voltage installer in accordance with local electrical codes and NEC Article 725 for Class 2 and Class 3 remote-control circuits. Power down or disarm the associated alarm or control system before making any wiring connections. Mount the switch body securely to the fixed frame and verify actuator alignment with the moving door or window panel before final termination. Do not over-tighten mounting hardware, as this may distort the switch body and affect actuator travel.
