PROTECTING MOVABLE OBJECTS<br />

PROTECTING A “VALUABLES” DRAWER<br />

Surface Mount Contacts<br />

Valuable coin collections, silverware and jewelry can be protected by arming a<br />

storage drawer with either recessed or surface mount magnetic contacts.<br />

Because of the difficulty of working with a screwdriver inside a drawer, use a selfadhesive<br />

switch. Be certain to clean mounting surfaces with alcohol before<br />

attaching contacts. Wide gap switches should be used on steel file cabinets and<br />

desk drawers because steel will cut operating distance in half.<br />

Choose mounting locations where switch and magnet will not interfere with<br />

operation of drawer. Clearance between moving and non-moving parts may vary.<br />

Install switch in cabinet and magnet on drawer. Or, mount switch and magnet on<br />

outside of drawer. If wide gap switch is used, align labels on switch and magnet so<br />

“Sentrol” reads in same direction for both (switch is polarity sensitive).<br />

Test for continuity with ohmmeter. Install in alarm loop. If higher security is<br />

desired, install on 24-hour loop. Provide a shunt switch in the circuit to permit<br />

access as needed.<br />
