Kidde - Edwards 1047T-N Steel Door Switch Surface Contact

Product Description

The KIDDE - EDWARDS 1047T-N is an industrial-grade steel door switch designed for surface-mount contact applications. It monitors the open or closed state of a door and transmits that status to a connected alarm or access-control panel. Built from steel construction, this unit is suited for demanding environments where plastic-bodied contacts would not hold up. Licensed alarm technicians and security system installers are the primary trades that handle this device during new installation or service replacement.

This surface contact switch is used in industrial and commercial settings where door-position monitoring is required. It mounts directly to the door frame and door surface without requiring a routed pocket, making installation straightforward on metal doors and steel frames common in warehouses, mechanical rooms, and industrial facilities.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed alarm or low-voltage systems technician in accordance with applicable local codes and NFPA 72 guidelines. De-energize the alarm panel or access-control system before wiring or replacing this contact. Confirm proper gap alignment between the magnet and switch body per the panel manufacturer's requirements after mounting to ensure reliable open and closed state detection.
