Tane Alarm met-44wg-36 Garage Door Contact Switch

Product Description

The TANE ALARM met-44wg-36 is an overhead garage door contact switch designed for use in residential and light commercial security and alarm systems. The unit features a small-form-factor housing with a specialized push-pin mechanism that secures the cable connection at the switch side, preventing accidental disconnection during door cycling. This contact switch is the type of device installed by alarm technicians and security system integrators as part of perimeter door monitoring circuits.

The met-44wg-36 is suited for standard overhead garage door installations where a reliable, low-profile contact point is needed. Its compact size allows for installation in tight mounting locations common to overhead door frames and tracks. The push-pin cable retention design reduces the likelihood of intermittent faults caused by cable pullout, making it a practical choice for high-cycle residential garage door applications.

Key Features

• Specialized push-pin retainer keeps cable secured at the switch side during repeated door cycles
• Small-form-factor housing fits tight mounting locations on overhead door frames
• Designed for perimeter security and alarm monitoring circuits
• Overhead door-specific contact design for reliable open and closed state detection

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation contact switch for standard residential overhead garage door security and alarm systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed alarm technicians or security system integrators. Disconnect or disarm the alarm control panel before wiring the contact to avoid false triggers or panel faults. Follow local low-voltage wiring codes and the alarm panel manufacturer wiring guidelines when routing and terminating the switch leads. Verify proper door travel clearance after mounting to ensure the contact actuates correctly through the full range of door movement.
