Drop Prop Alarm

Hi,

I am looking for an alarm that will go off if a door is propped open. The closest I have found to my needs is the Exit Stopper from STI, but the delay isn't quite long enough. Specifically I would like:

Mains Powered

Reasonably Loud ~ 100 db

Magnetic switch

A delay of around 1 minute after the door is opened before the alarm goes off (but preferably adjustable)

Continuous sounding until the door is closed

Reset on door close

Reasonably vandal resistant.

Anyone know of anything that would fit the bill, in the 100 pound range.

thanks

Alex

1x 12v psu metel cased

1x 12v dc delay on timer resolution to suit you ie. 10 seconds to 5 mins adjustable.

1x internal sounder, intruder alarm type 12v

1x flush door contact, intruder alarm type

1x 12 v relay

Suggest a keyswitch overide for when you "need" to have the door open.

These bits should be less then

You can use our ACT10 Keypad, as it has this very feature in it, along with Interlocking, 2 Relay outputs, Tamper, ooo the list goes on.

Have a look t the data sheet

Yes you will need a P.S.U and sounder and if you have a look at our datasheet, it doesn't include the other equipment. So dont forget, you will need a 240 volt supply (Part P qualified Electrician), screws, Raw plugs, Cable, dare i go on LOL :no:

Many thanks for all the replies.

The ACT looks very nice - but probably a little complex for our needs what with all the extras needed.

HED Solutions Model EX206 seems to meet our needs and is all-in-one.

I have a tame Electrician on staff!

Thanks all

Do get your local alarm company to have a look as well, there is every chance your intruder alarm panel can be set to activate an internal alarm on 24 hour setting via a delay.

The opinions I express are mine and are usually correct!
