George Risk Industries Inc. 8297-KIT Track Mount Kit

Product Description

The GEORGE RISK INDUSTRIES INC. 8297-KIT is a track mount kit designed for use with overhead door contact installations. It provides the mechanical mounting hardware needed to secure a door contact sensor to the track assembly of a commercial or residential overhead door. Security technicians and low-voltage electricians install this kit as part of a complete door monitoring system, typically to detect open or closed door position for alarm, access control, or building automation applications. The kit is sold as a single unit and is intended to simplify field installation by providing purpose-built mounting components.

The 8297-KIT is suited for overhead door contact applications where a standard surface or frame mount is not practical or accessible. It is commonly used in commercial facilities, warehouses, garages, and loading dock environments where overhead doors require reliable position monitoring. The track mount approach allows the contact to be positioned along the door track rather than on the door frame, making it adaptable to a wider range of door configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or security systems installer. Disconnect and de-energize any associated alarm or access control panel circuits before beginning work. Follow all applicable local electrical codes and manufacturer guidance when securing hardware to the door track assembly. Verify that the mounted contact aligns correctly with the door magnet or actuator throughout the full range of door travel before finalizing installation.
