The problem with putting them on the very top is that I've seen the bad
guys push in on the bottom of the door with the front of a vehicle and
bend the door enough to crawl through. I also stopped putting them on
the floor because the cables get broken by idiot forklift drivers
(etc). The Sentrol 2315s are a good compromise as you can easily place
them anywhere on the track. Try one...you'll never use anything
else...they're worth the extra bucks for sure.

Most companies mount the cntact to the floor with screws and anchors, and
attached the magnet brackt to the bottom of the door. That works and I
have
installed hundreds of overhead door magnets that way, but now I put them
on
the top of overhead doors.

I am considering adding contacts to overhead garage doors for use with
my Ademco Vista 20P security system.

I see Ademco has a 957 Overhead Door Magnetic Contact. I see photos
of the device, but I do not see any detailed information on how it
fits to garage doors. Is there any information available online?

Have these generally proved to be reliable?
