George Risk Industries MC-180-W Door Channel Magnet

Product Description

The George Risk Industries MC-180-W is a door channel magnet designed for use in security and access control installations. This component mounts within door channel framing to provide a magnetic contact point that triggers alarm or monitoring circuits when a door is opened or closed. It is sold individually and finished in white to blend with standard door hardware and framing. Electricians and low-voltage security technicians are the primary installers of this type of contact device.

The MC-180-W is suited for residential and light commercial door applications where a clean, concealed magnetic contact is required. It fits into channel-style door frames and works as part of a broader intrusion detection or access control system. The white finish makes it appropriate for painted or white-trimmed door assemblies where aesthetics and discretion matter.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage electrician or qualified security system technician. De-energize the alarm or access control panel circuit before handling wiring or inserting the contact into the door channel. Follow local low-voltage wiring codes and the panel manufacturer guidelines for proper zone termination. Verify magnetic alignment with the corresponding door contact before finalizing the installation.
