George Risk Industries GI-570225 Recessed Contact

Product Description

The GEORGE RISK INDUSTRIES INC. GI-570225 is a Squarelok recessed contact designed for armored cable installations with a 3/16 inch form factor. Recessed contacts are magnetic reed switch assemblies mounted flush into door or window frames to detect open and closed states in security and access control systems. This unit ships as a single piece (sold per each) and is suited for professional installation in commercial and residential security applications where armored cable routing is required for wire protection and code compliance.

The GI-570225 fits into recessed contact applications where armored cable entry is specified, typically in metal door frames, hollow metal frames, or reinforced door assemblies. Installers use this contact where surface-mount contacts are not permitted or where a cleaner, more tamper-resistant installation is required. It is appropriate for low-voltage security wiring systems and is commonly installed by licensed alarm technicians and security integrators.

Key Features

• Squarelok recessed form factor for flush, concealed installation
• Armored cable entry accepts protected wiring for tamper-resistant runs
• 3/16 inch cable opening sized for standard armored cable
• Single-unit packaging for straightforward field replacement or new installation
• Recessed mount reduces exposure to physical tampering compared to surface-mount contacts

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style recessed contact for low-voltage security and access control systems requiring armored cable entry in door or window frame applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed alarm or low-voltage technician in accordance with local security system codes and NEC low-voltage wiring requirements. De-energize the security panel and disable the zone before wiring or replacing the contact. The recessed cavity must be drilled or routed to the correct diameter and depth before seating the contact body. Armored cable should be secured and terminated according to the panel manufacturer and local code requirements.
