George Risk Industries 400WG-B Surface Mount Contact Brown

Product Description

The George Risk Industries 400WG-B is a surface mount magnetic contact designed for use in hardwired security and alarm systems. It features a hidden terminal configuration with an integrated wire guard, keeping field wiring concealed and protected from tampering or accidental damage. The brown finish allows the contact to blend into wood-tone door and window frames common in residential and light commercial installations. This type of contact is typically installed by alarm technicians and low-voltage security contractors.

The 400WG-B is suited for surface mount applications on doors and windows where recessed installation is not practical. The hidden terminal design reduces exposure of wiring connections at the contact body, which is preferred in installations where aesthetics or tamper resistance are a priority. The brown color option makes it a common choice for wood-framed doors, cabinetry, or trim-matched installations in residential and light commercial environments.

Key Features

• Surface mount design installs directly onto door or window frames without routing
• Hidden terminal configuration conceals wiring connections at the contact body
• Integrated wire guard protects field wiring from damage and tampering
• Brown finish suits wood-tone frames and trim in residential or commercial settings
• Single-unit packaging allows flexible quantity ordering for service calls or small jobs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style surface mount contact for use in standard hardwired security and alarm system installations requiring hidden terminal wiring with a wire guard.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage or alarm system technicians in accordance with local codes and NFPA 72 guidelines. Power down or disarm the alarm panel before connecting field wiring to the contact terminals. Mount the contact body and magnet on opposing surfaces so the gap between them falls within the operating range specified by the system design. Avoid pinching or kinking the wiring at the wire guard entry point during installation.
