George Risk Industries 199-12WG-W Recessed Switch Set

Product Description

The GEORGE RISK INDUSTRIES INC. 199-12WG-W is a recessed switch set designed for security and access-control applications where a flush-mounted magnetic contact is required. The assembly includes all components needed for a complete installation in a bored cylindrical cavity. With a 1 inch diameter form factor and a double-throw (DT) switching configuration, this unit provides both normally open and normally closed circuit outputs from a single device. It is installed by security technicians and electricians working on door and window contact systems in residential and commercial environments.

This recessed switch set is suited for installation in doors, door frames, windows, and casework where surface-mounted contacts are not acceptable or aesthetically practical. The deep-profile body accommodates thicker substrates and provides secure retention within the bored hole. The double-throw output makes it compatible with monitored alarm loops, access-control panels, and dual-zone configurations where both circuit states need to be utilized.

Key Features

• Recessed form factor eliminates exposed hardware on finished door and frame surfaces
• 1 inch diameter body fits standard 1 inch spade or Forstner bit bored holes
• Double-throw switching provides both normally open and normally closed terminals
• Deep profile accommodates thicker door and frame substrates
• Complete set includes switch and magnet components for a full installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation recessed magnetic contact set for standard 1 inch diameter bored-hole door and window security contact applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed security technicians or electricians. Power down the alarm panel or access-control circuit before making wiring connections to avoid false triggers or equipment damage. Bore the mounting cavity to the correct diameter and depth before seating the switch body to ensure proper magnetic gap alignment. Follow the panel manufacturer's wiring guidelines and applicable local codes when terminating the double-throw leads.
