PROTECTING MOVABLE OBJECTS<br />

PROTECTING A CHINA CABINET<br />

Recessed contacts<br />

Valuable china and other collectibles can be protected by arming a china cabinet<br />

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

Notes:<br />

• Alarm both doors if protecting a two-door cabinet. Wire switches in series.<br />

• Do not place contacts in hinged portion of door since door could be opened<br />

wide before switch would trip.<br />

• For aesthetic reasons, recessed installation is more desirable than surface mount<br />

INSTALLATION<br />

RECOMMENDED<br />

PRODUCTS<br />

Choose appropriate concealed contact.<br />

Select positions for magnets in doors, switches in cabinets.<br />

Drill vertical hole in top of door. Coat magnet with RTV mounting compound and<br />

insert in hole. If wide gap switch is used, observe correct polarity by mounting<br />

bare magnet with red end toward switch end with wires.<br />

Drill vertical hole in cabinet for switch. Also, drill a hole at an angle from the<br />

inside of the cabinet to meet the switch hole so wires can be run to the switch.<br />

Coat switch with RTV mounting compound. Insert switch in hole, fishing wires<br />

through to inside of cabinet. Route wires in joint of cabinet, around top of cabinet<br />

to back. Drill exit hole for wires through back of cabinet.<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 />
