George Risk Industries Inc. 400-W Surface Mount Contact White

Product Description

The GEORGE RISK INDUSTRIES INC. 400-W is a surface mount indoor contact designed with a concealed terminal and finished in white. Surface mount contacts are used in security and access control wiring to detect the opening or closing of doors and windows. The concealed terminal design keeps wiring neat and reduces exposure to tampering or accidental disconnection. This type of contact is typically installed by alarm technicians, low-voltage electricians, or security system integrators during new construction or retrofit projects.

The 400-W is suited for indoor residential and light commercial applications where a clean, low-profile installation is required. Its white finish blends with standard door and window trim, making it a common choice for finished living spaces, office environments, and retail installations where aesthetics matter alongside function.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage technicians or alarm system installers. Disconnect and de-energize the control panel circuit before wiring the contact. Secure the contact housing flush to the door or window frame using appropriate fasteners for the substrate. Follow local low-voltage wiring codes and the control panel manufacturer guidelines for loop wiring and termination.
