Customer Reviews [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-11-26 Summary: Works excellent, a bit unsightly ... The Window/Door sensors are not the most attractive pieces of hardware you've ever seen. The silver terminals on the magnet are exposed instead of hidden within a housing. They do work very well though, which is the most important feature they could have. Be aware that in most of the product photos they do not show you the wire that runs from the "wireless" unit to the magnets, but there is one. It's only wireless back to the main control panel. With some planning you could probably install this with the wire hidden, ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-10-27 Summary: Simple install - worked as advertised ... Install was straight forward. The door where this item was installed used both of the provided spacers to bring the magnet in line with the switch. The only problem was when I encountered a metal door jamb the screws provided broke under what I thought to be only minor force. But after the holes were opened a little more and other screws selected, install went correctly. ...more

[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-07-03 Summary: works well but the paint job is sloppy ... The gate is effective and does what it is supposed to do and our kids are safe. We were surprised that the paint job was so sloppy....Seems like they put all the pieces together and then slathered on the white paint! Practice opening it once you get it installed because it's a bit hard to pull out the stopper. You don't want your first time to be in an emergency! ...more

Customer Reviews [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-10-28 Summary: GE56789 window/door alarm is great ... This alarm is terrific if you're in an apartment. For a house I would spend the money to have the whole house wired, but for apartments, it does the trick. Put one on each window/door and forget about the $100's in gates and bars. I refuse to be the prisioner in my own abode with gates and bars on the windows... I live in NYC. This alarm is loud and the batteries can be tested without setting it off. If you have old wooden windows it may not line up properly but you have a half inch deviance to play with before it ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-06-26 Summary: Toddler Proofing ... This works perfectly for my storm/screen door. After reading many reviews about the child-proofing items for a screen door, all fell short. I decided to opt for this alarm. It's LOUD. I can hear it no matter where I am in the house! I keep the screen door locked, but my son CAN unlock it, so the alarm is my back-up plan. It's great in the "chime" mode too. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-01-14 Summary: Extra layer of security ... My children's room is not on the same floor of the house as me, so I like to know what my kids are dooing. A few years ago my (then) 5 year old was opening his window in his room and throwing his toys in the back yard for his friend to come and get. Ever since then I've kept alarms on the windows. I bought these alarms for my new house last year. And testing shows I can hear them with the tv on both in that room and the room I am in on another floor of the house. That's pretty good! While I mostly use these to hear ...more
