Does the Orientation of ZSE41 Open | Close Sensor Matter?

Does it matter if I mount it vertically or horizontally, as long as the gap is <0.25” and the lines are lined up?

I highly doubt it, but thought I’d ask before I adhere it to the door/frame.

Thanks in advance!

@sparker did you mean ZSE41? Your title references the tilt sensor which does technically have an orientation. The open/close sensor, ZSE41 will work however you need to mount them.

Usually I connect them and try rough test fit before actually sticking them to make sure they will actually work. Sometimes you need to get creative. I know on my old windows I had to use actual magnets as they were slimmer.

Yes, I meant ZSE41 . Sorry for the confusion. Based on your reply, I will be mounting one pair horizontally (sliding glass door) and one vertically.

I appreciate the speedy reply.

Yeap, doesn’t really matter, all of my window ones are mounted horizontally so either pane being moved will trigger the sensor.
