Honeywell Home 7940WH Surface Mount Universal Magnetic Contact with Screw Terminals, 2" Gap, SPST, White

The Honeywell Home 7940WH is a white surface-mount universal magnetic contact for security system sensor applications. It uses a single-pole, single-throw (SPST) switch with screw terminals, and it can be screw mounted, adhesive mounted or recessed, which makes it a flexible choice for installers working across different door and window types. Its standard 2″ gap and insulation displacement terminals, which remove the need for stripping or soldering, are what set it apart.
