Garage Door Sensor

[jwglover]

I can't seem to find any information about the garage door sensor part of the system.  I see how to install it, but I don't know where to get the necessary hardware.  Is it something special that I need to order from Bluespray?

Yes, you can order the kit directly from us at:

It would appear the link to store.bluespray.net has passed its 'best if used by...' date.  Could someone please refresh the answer to jwglover's question?  Are we looking for a simple wired normally open magnetic reed switch here?  The kind they sell on eBay at 5 for about $6.00?  Thanks.

Yes, you can use any normally open magnetic reed switch, but for the garage, we recommend something that is strong and rugged such as this one:

Thank you for that!
