Monitor access to your property

How they Work:

An Open/Closed Door Sensor works by detecting whether a door or window is open or closed using a magnet and a sensor. These devices are common in smart homes, security systems, and IoT applications.

The Sensor is installed on the stationary frame (e.g., a door frame or window sill).
The magnet is attached to the moving part (e.g., the door or window).

When the door or window is closed, the magnet aligns with the sensor, maintaining a magnetic field that indicates the door/window is closed. When the door or window is opened, the magnet moves away from the sensor, disrupting the magnetic field. This triggers the sensor to send a signal indicating the door/window is open.

Our open/close sensors communicate wirelessly with a gateway using the LoRaWAN Protocol. This allows the sensor to transmit status updates in real-time to a Web Portal that we provide you.

Our sensors can be integrated into smart home systems or building management systems. For example, they can trigger actions such as turning off heating when a window is open or sending alerts if a door is unexpectedly opened.

Is it difficult to install a LoRaWAN leak sensor?

Our LoRaWAN leak sensors are designed to be simple to set up:

1. Connect the gateway to your internet via Wifi or wired to your router.

2. Turn on the Temperature Sensor with a button press.

3. Create an account on our portal to view your device(s) and enter your email and/or phone number to receive notifications!

What are the advantages of using LoRaWAN over Wi-Fi or other wireless technologies?

LoRaWAN provides several advantages, including long-range communication (ideal for large buildings or remote areas), low power consumption (extending battery life), and secure data transmission. It’s particularly beneficial for large-scale applications like industrial complexes, smart cities, or agricultural monitoring.

What types of alerts can I expect?

Our LoRaWAN leak sensors provide real-time alerts via email and text.

How many devices can 1 gateway manage?

1 gateway can manage thousands of sensors. 1 gateway can also manage different types of sensors...so once a gateway is on site, you can select any type of LoRawan sensor to transmit data through it.
